Alison Rostetter's curator insight, March 26, 2017 11:02 AM
I let my business class do presentations on screen-casting.  It gets them a speaking grade for the end of term.  The reason I do this is a) so they can get it out of the way whenever they have time - the deadline is fairly long and b) they tend to take more trouble over it than if it were just an ordinary presentation, in front of the class.

Narrated Slideshow – Screencast Tool Comparison

Narrated Slideshow – Screencast Tool Comparison | Digital Presentations in Education | Scoop.it

A screencast is a digital recording of a computer screen with audio narration. Screencasts can include telestrator (‘John Madden pen’) annotations. Narrated slideshows include audio recordings synchronized to images without hand-drawn annotations.

Screencasts and narrated slideshows can be created with two kinds of tools:

1. Browser-based: Create an account on the website and use a modern web browser like Google Chrome or FireFox to record, save and share it.

2. Client-based: Download and install software on a computing device to record and save.

Baiba Svenca's insight:

The article gives a definition of a screencast and a narrated slideshow and the two possible ways of creating them. The author Wesley Fryer describes the steps you need to take to make a screencast and compares the most popular screen recording tools. The chart can be extremely useful to beginners.

Alfredo Corell's curator insight, May 11, 2013 10:12 AM
