My experience of using Screencast

My Experience of using Screencasting

Tools/Apps that I have used before:

1) MS PowerPoint: Using Narration Function and save the file as video format. The online tutorial can be found here : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gGzJ3do0e9Q

2) MS Media Encoder: Online Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rsj8oz0_JJI

3) Screen-o-Matic: easy to use but restricted by 15 minute recording

4) Cam Studio (http://camstudio.org/): Open Source Software that are free to use.

5) Camtasia (http://discover.techsmith.com/): Inexpensive software that can create teaching package swith built in assessment.

6) Beside YouTube, screencast.com(http://www.screencast.com/) is also a  good site for streaming and distributing your screencast . You can have a 2 GB of space free to use.

Below is how you can creat the Screencast account.

Here is an example of screencast that I have created using Camtasia and the uploaded to Screencast.
