How to Use This Free Screencasting Tool for E-Learning. You may have heard the news last week that Articulate launched a new screencasting tool called Screenr. It is a free web-based tool that lets you create screencasts without installing any software. I really like Screenr. If you haven’t tried it out yet, you should give it a whirl. Here’s what I like best: Screenr is super easy to use and there’s nothing to download. You just click the record button on the website and you’re recording your screen activity and your narration. With that said, let me share some ideas on how you can use Screenr with your rapid elearning courses. 1. Screenr gives you an embed code. Here are a couple of tutorials on how to embed the Screenr videos in Moodle and how to embed them in Blackboard. Click here to view the web object demo. 2. As I mentioned earlier, one of my favorite things about Screenr is that I can download the videos as MP4 files and not have the Screenr logo in the video.

Screencast tools provide a way to record your computer screen and can include audio and video. This is a great tool if you would like to explain something to a student or give quick feedback. It is very convenient for short demonstrations which can be viewed over and over again. Two free products that we use for screencasting in the E-Learning Unit are Jing (from Techsmith) and Screenr (from Articulate), and though they are very basic, they may be suitable for your needs. Both Jing and Screenr have the capability to record a specified area of your screen for up to 5 minutes, and both allow you to add audio using a microphone.
You can upgrade both products to a Pro version – which opens up several additional features for each. Jing: I’ve been using Jing for a long time to do my screencasts, and what I like about it is that the tool sits discreetly at the top of my screen and allows me to start recording at any moment by just clicking a button. Here is a sample embedded Jing recording: Screencasting to Engage Learning (EDUCAUSE Review.
Key Takeaways Screencasts can provide learners a student-centered and engaging learning experience in both distance and traditional learning settings. To align screencasts with lesson objectives, goals, assessment practices, and standards, instructors can create their own screencasts rather than searching through the thousands of educational screencast videos on the web. Good educational screencasts depend not only on thorough planning but also on thoughtful and careful editing to re-sequence lesson elements, eliminate awkward and unnecessary portions, and craft a focused, easy-to-follow presentation that uses students' time efficiently.
Students in both K–12 and higher education will spend all of their personal and professional lives immersed in a digital society. Educators in today's classrooms must be able to use and integrate both current and emerging technologies. This article focuses on educational screencasts.
