Jing Screencast

The ability to capture small snipits if videos could be very helpful in class.  In this activity we used Jing to capture a video of a useful tip or trick.  I chose a short video on how to fold an 8-page booklet from a piece of paper.  Students could use the booklet to take notes or for a creative writing assignment.

The Foldable Screencast video is very short and I would most likely play it in a loop in the classroom.  A loop would allow students to follow along and then watch as many times as necessary while working on the booklet.

Jing is a great little tool and I have already used it many times.  I think having the little ray of sunshine on my desktop helps to remind me to use it often.

NETS:
3b: short video clips can be used to support student learning by providing relevant information.
