At a meeting earlier this week, we briefly discussed recording short videos (e.g. "5-min Dive into Data"). You can then arrange these videos on a Google Sites for others to view later. This is particularly helpful for creating flipped lesson videos and/or staff development video shorts!
Note: If you are a Mac user, in addition to the options below, you can also use built-in Quicktime Player to record video, then place that video on ECTV. (click the links to view short tutorials on how to do this).
Step #1 - Record Your Video
Two options for video recording exist...By the way, these tools below work on any computer with Chrome browser, including Chromebooks.
Option #1 - Record Your Computer Screen OnlyThis option enables you to record your screen. Great for walking people through a web site (e.g. "Here's how you access the TEKS Resource System. First, open your browser....").
- TechSmith's Snagit app and extension
- ClipChamp - This capture tool allows you to save your video recording (a.k.a. "screencast") as an MP4 video.
Option #2 - Record Your Computer Screen AND Your FaceThis option enables you to record your screen but also turns on your computer video camera so you will appear in the bottom right-hand corner of the screen.
- MediaCore Capture - After recording and saving a video from MediaCore Capture, you will need to convert it from WebM video format to MP4 video format. You can do that using Zamzar.com WebM to MP4.
STEP #2 - Share Your Video on ECTV OR YouTube
Once you have created a video, and it is in MP4 video format, you can put it on ECTV (http://welearn.ecisd.net), the District's video hosting site, or if you prefer, YouTube.com. Then, you can share the web link to the video with others, such as the ones below:
- Prime Factorization by Dawn Drisdale - https://welearn.ecisd.net/ectv/videos/285/prime-factorization
- Transcribing State Assessments by Melodye Pieniazek - https://welearn.ecisd.net/ectv/videos/280/transcribing-a-state-assessment
