Description
Whether you're creating short videos to explain specific skills, getting your students to document their learning by capturing their onscreen actions, or building a lesson library aimed at flipping your classroom, knowing how to create a quality screencast by recording your computer's screen is a truly useful skill for any teacher to have. Screencasting is also a wonderfully multimodal activity that greatly improves your ability to clearly, simply and quickly explain an idea. In this hands-on session we will look at the various skills involved in producing an effective screencast, and investigate some of the tools for creating your own. During this session you will make your own short screencast on a topic of your choice using free screencasting tools.
