Screen casting

What is a screen cast….? A screen cast is a video that allows you to take

the images from a computer screen along with someone talking about what’s being shown.

The video and audio components can make a topic more engaging than written instructions or static images, while also appealing to different learning styles

Screen casts can be easily distributed via blog posts, RSS feeds, tags, and social media video hosts
