Jing for Visual Communication

Using Jing for Creating Visual Instructional Messages

During this session, you'll learn how to use Jing to create short instructional videos and screen snapshots. We'll also discuss why and when you should use Jing and I'll offer several "best practices" for creating screencasts and screen snapshots. Finally, you'll learn how to share your Jing videos and screen snapshots with your students.

Examples:

1. Angel Learning Discussion Board Demonstration - screencast used to help students correctly post and reply for an assignment.
2. Remote Login Using logmein.com - screencast demonstration on using logmein.com to connect to your home computer.
3. Homework Feedback - screen snapshot showing CSS coding detail.

Why Use Jing?

1. Show and tell students how to do something on their computers.
2. Give feedback on homework.
3. Demonstrate how an expert does something.
