At Vidutopia our motto is "In your hand or on demand, your educational videos when you want them,
how you want them." Unlike most video sharing sites on the web, which only offer low quality video
streaming access, we allow users to view their selected lessons through a variety of formats including
streaming, download, and even DVD or High Definition Blu-Ray Disc®. We strive every day to create the
most user friendly and cost effective environment possible for educational video sharing on the web.
Our goal is to provide educators, experts, and individuals the opportunity to discover and share high
quality education videos both on and offline. The flexibility to not only pick and choose just the
videos lessons you want, but also how you view those videos is something that we feel sets Vidutopia
apart from other websites. Additionally, the option to request a personalized DVD or Blu-Ray Disc®
containing your video selections is especially useful for educators and individuals who want to plan
out a week, month, or even year of lesson plans, but do not want the hassle of relying on the
availability of an internet connection for streaming content or long download times for large video
files. Our service provides user friendly access to high quality educational videos that allows you to
save time, money, and the needless frustration sometimes associated with obtaining educational content
on the web.

As educators ourselves, we saw the need for an easy to use and cost effective teaching resource. This resource
needed to display high quality educational material in a focused and organized manner allowing the educator or
individual to determine how best to present and use that material. In essence, we wanted to create a dynamic and
always expanding library of video based educational material and knowledge that would allow educators and individuals
to pick and choose the exact areas of information that satisfied their specific educational requirements.
In the past, if someone wanted a video lesson on say thermodynamics, or even just a short lab demonstration concerning
some aspect of thermodynamics, they would have one of only two options.
Option 1 would be to purchase a very expensive, but usually high quality, DVD series or box set that covered a number
of topics and hope that your topic of interest was covered in a way that suited your purpose. The advantage of this option
was that you could be reasonably certain the content was of high quality, but the disadvantages were high cost and the fact
that it was nearly impossible to know if the content was useful until after video or set were purchased.
Option 2 would be to scour the internet, sometimes for hours, looking for that one relevant video out of the thousands of
both non-relevant educational videos and non-educational videos available on various video sharing sites. If you were
lucky enough to find a useful video, you would then only be able to watch a small and grainy streaming version of the
video on your computer monitor. The advantage of this option of course is that the cost was very low and sometimes free,
but the disadvantages were the poor visual quality of the videos and the hassle and time associated with finding and
viewing the videos online.
Therefore, our solution was to create Vidutopia to offer an Option 3, which combines the positive aspects of options 1 and 2
without any of the negatives. By using Vidutopia, you can be confident that the content you find is of the highest quality
as each submission is screened by our experts and educators before it is approved and made available on the site. Additionally,
our active community of experts, educators, and individuals also review and rate the videos available on the site so you can see
what other individuals think about the content of a particular video clip before you purchase. By giving you the flexibility to
choose only the content you want, and to create your own personalized DVD or Blu-Ray Disc®, you can save time and money by
tailoring the video content to fit your needs rather than forcing yourself to conform to a predefined video program. This also
saves you money by ensuring you are only paying for content you want rather than buying expensive videos or sets just to have
access to a few small portions or sections of interest. Finally, our focus on educational videos and easy to navigate categories
and search functionality also ensure that you will be able to quickly and easily find relevant and high impact educational videos
to serve any need from the classroom to the home.
