Creating a visually exciting presentation for use in the classroom, to "flip" it and thereby engage my students in the learning experience, can now be achieved by using a program call Jing! Jing affords teachers the ability to offer their students activities presented in a 21st Century learning environment.
Visual learning allows teachers to "reach out" to their students, outside of the traditional classroom environment, by providing increased teacher-student interactions, which enable guided practice opportunities, during homework time, or when students may need extra tutoring.
The ISTE/NETS-T technology standards this activity relates to is: #2. Design and Develop Digital Age Learning Experiences and Assessments; #3. Model Digital Age Work and Learning.
Opening the link provided below, entitled Jing Screencast, will guide you through the steps in creating your own visual presentations, without use of an external recording instrument.
The steps are:
Bring up the screen you want to "capture", or record. Use the Jing program, Snagit for selection of the visual components of the lesson you which to present.
Note: if the program Jing is used, your video will generally be limited to a short, 5 minutes. Jing is available for download on the Internet.
Using the "sun" icon from Jing provides you with 3 "prongs", Capture, History and More, for specific selection. In the case of screen "captures", select the prong on the left, Capture.
Once an the area of the screen to be captured is selected, a panel of buttons are available, Capture Image, Capture Video, Redo Selection, Cancel. By selecting Capture Video, and selecting the area to be digitally recorded, guided tutorials can be created for sharing on another Jing program, Screencast. The file extension is .swf. Shockwave.
Last, there are different file sharing options available: Share URL, Embed Link, Embed on your page. Below, I selected the option Embed Link, which if clicked, will direct you to the specific screen capture on the Internet. Enjoy!
