Tuesday's Tech Tips
Jan 21, 2014- TIPS
This is my first installment of Tuesday's Tech Tips. I just wanted to share two technology tools with you that you might find valuable to use in your classroom.
- www.smore.com Smore allows you to create online flyers and newsletters to post to websites or share online in any way that you like.
- ScreenCorder records your actions on the computer and allows you to show a tutorial of how to do something online. I used ScreenCorder to do the OneNote training. You can view the OneNote training in the Technology Trainings folder and see how ScreenCorder works to record what you're doing on the computer.
It's already available to you. Simply click on the Windows icon in the bottom left of your screen and type in ScreenCorder. You just need to plug in some headphones to record your voice as you narrate, and the program records what you are doing on the screen.
Skyping in the Media Center
Two marketing students are using the Skype room on an ongoing basis to Skype with their internship boss.
You are welcome to bring your students to the Skype room to set up a Skype session. Please contact me to set up a time.
