Screencast Reflection

What we did…

We learned two new screen applications designed to record or capture and save what you do on your computer screen. Those two applications are jing and scree-o-matic. We also did various advanced search techniques with Google search. This allowed us to get a more detailed search of topics we are actually looking for. The last portion of class was generating code defined by us creating depositories of sites that we want a defined Google search to “sniff” from. Once we implemented those specific sites we were then able to create the code to be embedded into any html source code (specifically iGoogle).

The NETS Standard Met…
Facilitate and Inspire Student Learning and Creativity
Promote student reflection using collaborative tools to reveal and clarify students' conceptual understanding and thinking, planning, and creative processes.
Design and Develop Digital-Age Learning Experiences and Assessments
Teachers design, develop, and evaluate authentic learning experiences and assessment incorporating contemporary tools and resources to maximize content learning in context and to develop the knowledge, skills, and attitudes identified in the NETS•S. Teachers:
Engage in Professional Growth and Leadership
Evaluate and reflect on current research and professional practice on a regular basis to make effective use of existing and emerging digital tools and resources in support of student learning.

The way I can use this information…
I will use this information immediately with the project for my next assignment and by teaching new tools to students/teachers when I am not able to actually be there in person.
