Using Screencastify to Narrate a Google Slides Presentation
Google Slides is by far the most flexible and innovative of the G-Suite Apps.
Google Slides can do just about anything...One thing Google Slides is not equipped with is a voice over feature. Enter the Chrome Extension, Screencastify. In the tutorial to the left, I have demonstrated how to configure Screencastify as a browser extension and use it to narrate slides in Google Slides.
In this project, the students created Google Slide presentations about the life of Marco Polo. Each slide was creatively narrated using the chrome app, Screencastify. Check out the student examples!

Kudos to Mrs. Tanya Hood at NIMS, who is the author of this project. In addition, this narrated slide presentation was only 1 of several options the students were offered to complete the assignment!
