This royalty free stock footage source is particularly well-designed and easy to use and offers moving images and stills from the birth of cinema up to 1996, with the largest range of material dating from the 1940s. Titles are nearly all non-fiction and drawn largely from U.S. government agency sources. It is possible to search by specific day, month, year or decade; while the broad keywording is very efficient, the resource has a default primary emphasis on geographical location.

IMPALA (Informal Mobile Podcasting and Learner Adaptation) is a Higher Education Academy-funded project researching into the use of podcasts in university teaching and learning. It has produced its own series of podcasts offering guidance for staff on how to use this resource. There is also a blog providing up-to-date information on the project. A linked project, IMPALA 2, is investigating the impact of podcasting on student learning in Geography, Earth and Environmental Sciences (GEES), and delivers testable and transferable models of using podcasting for learning in these subjects. IMPALA4T investigates the use of ‘student created’ podcasts to support the transition of students into higher education. The project seems to have concluded but the website contains much useful information.
