Tech Tuesdays January 3:00 - 4:00pm
This is what I have in mind for Tech Tuesdays for January. Please let me know if you have other ideas. Thank you.
Tuesday, January 15 - YouTube Channel - Set up your YouTube Channel. You already have one because you have a Google Docs account. You just need to set it up.
Tuesday, January 22 - Screencast-o-matic.com - Capture and record a video of your computer screen to share with students. You can save to your desktop and upload to your YouTube channel. You might link this to your web page or embed it in your web page.
Here is a handout on Screencast-omatic.
Tuesday, January 29 - Link your video from YouTube to your webpage, or embed it to your webpage.
