Week 6 - Vidcast

What? - This week we learned the four different tools we could use to make vidcasts; powerpoint, photostory, flip, and jing. We also learned four different options of vidcasts we could make; PSA, Intro to Content/Lesson, How-to, or tutorial.

So What? - This can be very beneficial to me now because I can put videos of me out there on the web that will be heard by others, it's a great way of making my voice known in the public. This is also beneficial because if I don't understand a topic I can walk through a tutorial that is able to show video of someone else doing it on their computer, or of pictures of their computer that my screen should look like.

Now What? - This will be very helpful to my future students because I will be able to post little video clips of future things that they need to learn how to do on my website and they can easily access them. I can also teach them how to do simple things online that I don't necessarily want to take time to do during class. I can basically teach my students how to do things, with out actually being there. I can also post review sessions or powerpoints online that my students can access if they are absent or don't quite understand a subject. They can also watch more in depth videos I may post in order to get more information on particular subjects.
