Week 5: Free Choice; Using SMART Recorder

For those of you that have a SMART board in your school, the software includes a recorder that works like Jing. This will record whatever action takes place on your desktop, active window, or an area that you select. It will also record your audio if you are connected to a microphone. When you complete your recording, it saves your file as a Windows Media file.

FYI, you are allowed to download the SMART software called Notebook, even if you are not using a board. The stipulation is that you need to have one in your building.

I made this video spontaneously and it took seconds. This tool could be an option for those who are interested in making a training video or adding classroom problems and solutions to a blog, wiki, etc.

Check it out. Let me know if you have any questions or a further explanation.
