February Challenge: Try A Screencast!

A screencast is a video recording of what’s happening on your computer monitor, often with annotations and/or narration. It can be simple or sophisticated, anything from a whiteboard presentation to a slideshow to a movie-like video.


Screencasts are a great way for both students and teachers to share the required steps in completing a math problem, collaborate on close reading, or pursue any other literacy activity.

THERE ARE LOTS OF WAYS TO USE SCREENCASTS

  • Record procedures and answer common questions
  • Give students audio-visual feedback
  • Record lessons that students can access anytime, anywhere
  • Have students record and narrate lessons for classmates
  • Provide video evidence of class activities in a flipped classroom
  • Share student-created content as part of homework or a class activity
  • Offer a fun, unique approach to digital storytelling
