What I liked about the United Streaming site was the incredible number of audio and video resources available. What I disliked about the site is that there didn't seem to be much in the way of voc/tech resources, at least not compared to other subjects areas. Also some of the clips I tried to watch had sound problems.
In the end I picked a video called "Careers for the Twenty First Century: Production Occupations" and watched the segments on woodworking and welding as it relates to both tech/ed and careers, two areas I'm involved in.
Its hard to argue with the general statement that video from United Streaming can be an effective supplement and have a high probability of improving learning. The potential certainly exists though it would depend on the particular application and how it was used by the teacher.
