Notes de l'éditeur
effective placement of screencasts –
Experiment with what works for you and your organization. We like SOM & YT for the free and easy aspects. Jing – 5 min, .swf filesCaptivate - .swf files, learning curve, costlyHave you done screencasting? What tools have you used?
The internet can change as fast as the weather. Remember when Meebo died? You may want to devise a back-up plan for your YouTube files. Other issues are ads and sometimes losing some customization or convenience features.
Attention-span runs out
Reviewed at least once a year. faculty input. Read assignment before creation/revision. Also database interface changes.
Use the “annotations” feature in YouTube to add a link from the old video to the new one. Change to Private and use the “views” in analytics to make sure you “caught” all the links. Then you can delete.
Feedback: faculty, comments, likes. Stats: fun in YouTube!
