A funny thing happend on the way to the train…

Posted by floatingman on September 1, 2009

I just learned about a cool tool to teach with.  It’s called Screenr and it’s a pretty easy way to make screencast for all you Web 2.0 people.

Basically Screenr is an easy way to record what ever is happening on your computer screen, including narration, and send to everyone following your Twitter feed and also save it to the Screenr website for viewing at a later time.

Now here’s the where the magic happens.  If you have a tablet PC, you can record everything you right down on your virtual whiteboard as well as everything you say and then send it to all of your students so they can review everything you discussed in class.  That is simple amazing.  I got the idea from this screencast.

Well there you go.  Put that in your knowledge pipe and blow it.
