Screencastify is a video creation tool that will allow you to video your desktop as you go through lesson expectations, explain content, or just want to create a quick video to connect with students. Screencastify will save videos to your Drive as well as your YouTube channel. This is ideal for reusing videos, creating playlists on YouTube, and saving for later use.
To get Screencastify, go to the Chrome Web Store. Search for Screencastify. Add it to your extensions. It will then be on your extension bar which is on the same bar as your internet search bar.

Loom is a video creation tool that will allow you to videotape your desktop as you go through lesson expectations, explain content, or just want to create a quick video to connect with students. Loom does not require you to save your video in Drive or YouTube. Instead it generates a URL for you to share with students. Loom is a paid service, but they are offering free accounts to educators during this time.
I have some good news, we've whitelisted your domain. Now we have access to Loom Pro for free. Make sure you're logging in to Loom with your school email to access these features.
All other teachers and students using this domain will be automatically upgraded if they have an existing account or will be granted access once they sign up. You can create an account here.
