Creating and using screencasts or videos in education is a growing trend and seems to be showing very promising results with higher student engagement levels and raising grades. But how do you get started? What programs do people use to make these videos? And what do you do with the videos after you’ve created them? This highly interactive 2-day course will teach all of these things and more!
What will I learn?
Learn how to make instructional videos with Snagit and Camtasia Studio that are often used for:
- Supporting a flipped classroom model
- Implementing a blended learning environment
- Providing flexible professional development
- Reviewing and helping students with homework
- Offering supplementary learning content to students
- Giving personalized feedback on progress to both students and parents.
This course will be tailored to those that attend, taking into consideration your individual skill level. No experience necessary, only an open mind and a willingness to learn! A certificate of completion will also be provided, as well as follow up support to make sure we can continue to help once you’ve tried your videos in an education setting.
