Capture your screen and upload to the internet

This is brilliant. This could be used to create a 'how to' resource before a session, it could be used during a session for learners to evidence how they have performed a task or how they have located information from the internet, or it could be used in a session by a tutor and then annotated after the session and posted to learners as supplementary materials.

I created a 2 minute screencapture in a little over 5 minutes.

  1. Follow the link and click on the button to create a new screencast.
  2. Resize the window around the part of the screen you want to capture.
  3. Press the red record button.
  4. Do what you want to do.
  5. Press the red button to stop recording.
  6. Upload to screencast-o-matic (SOM).
  7. Add a title and a description.
  8. Add some notes at specific times during the screencast
    (you can play the screencast, pause it and add a note at that point).
  9. Save, register and upload it.

Alternatively use the link below and you won't have to register and it will go straight on to my Community Learning and Skills Development (CLSD) channel.
