What can I use it for?
Screencasting can be an effective way to create flipped classroom resources. This may mean recording and narrating a PowerPoint or creating a video that clearly sets out the task you would like your students to perform.
Screencasts can also be a quick way to create a visual 'how to' guide which may cover something such as assessment submission procedures or where to find certain things on the module site. Screencasts can be embedded into a Blackboard site to make them easily available to students.
