The Process
Recording a screencast


Step 1: Choose a screecasting tool:
It is helpful if you have access to a computer with a built-in web cam, but it's definitely not a necessity.

Jing (Freeware, easiest. They'll host it for you too.)
Quicktime (Freeware, if you have a Mac. You'll need Pro if you have Windows)
Camstudio for Windows (Freeware)
Copernicus for Mac (Freeware)

:
Plan & Script an instructional video to creatively enhance your curriculum.



Step 3:
Record and develop a screencast and share that video with the educational community.

Step 4:
Sharing – Upload to Screencast and embed on a Blog, Wiki, Website etc.



Project Building Session:

Participants will map out and develop their own screencast and share that video with the educational community.
Participants will upload screencasts.
As a share-out, the participants will present their video to the group.

  1. While the relationship of stocks to the dollar has not always been "down dollar = up stocks" it has been this year. And in this market, that which gets rewarded gets

    repeated until someone's throat gets ripped out.
    At times it has been that a strong dollar meant a strong America and a strong economy. All rules of logic are gone due to the oligarchs running the government.
