Screencasting is the simplest way to record a video of yourself teaching while also recording a presentation on your computer screen! You can embed a video of YOU right on top of your Slides presentation or actively show students resources and materials. You can also annotate your screen as use it as a transparent white board to highlight what you are showing on your screen.
Screencastify is my favorite tool, and all UCC school staff who create a Screencastify account using their @bgcsedu.org OR @uccacostams.org email account will have access to the unlimited Screencastify platform!
