Have you ever wondered how to take a picture of your screen or record what is happening on your screen? Jing is a GREAT free tool used to accomplish this. I absolutely fell in love with Jing the first time I used it. It is extremely easy to use. It is so easy I have created a Jing of me typing this post! I have used Jing to create tutorials for different computer projects I have my students doing. I will never know how many questions my tutorials have answered. It is so great because I post these on my classroom site, and students then have the ability to access them at home. You could do a lesson for a day when you are gone, have the sub press play and show it over your projector. This is by far the best free screencasting tool I have found!
Thanks for sharing this. It's a great tool. I used it today to make a video of a SmartBoard issue so that I could post it to the help forums. It was so much easier than trying to describe the weird thing that was happening. :)
ReplyDeleteI love using it for tutorials. I also use it to guide my students!
