This week I tried using a screencast for the first time. I had to do a little research on what exactly this tool allowed me to do. Essentially a screencast allows the user to speak while using their computer screen as a reference. In the situation below, I used this tool in an educational setting. LinkedIn just released some modifications to their privacy settings and I outlined how to make the appropriate changes. This tool could be used to share a trip by going through the photos while providing dialogue or would be a great tool for FAQ sections of websites. Ultimately this is a great tool and is very easy to use as long as the user has a microphone handy. To make this video I used a site called www.screencast-o-matic.com. It was very easy to use the software as you can pick what part of your screen you want the tool to capture while recording. You can pause if you need to take a break and continue on with your screencast.
I hope you enjoy my screencast!
