Screencast Tutorial

Exploring the Basics of Canva

Process:

My screen capture tutorial was made to teach students how to learn the basics of Canva. I chose this project because until this year I did not know how to easily use Canva. I included information for beginners, such as templates, photos, text, and animation. I started off knowing these steps and it gave me a lot of information for such a big platform. I used https://www.loom.com/looms/videos and canva.com to record my screen capture tutorial. This was a very helpful site to use and I would recommend it to anyone who wanted to do a screen recording. Difficulties I had doing this tutorial was finding the right app to screen record with, and figuring out a way to make my tutorial in two minutes or less.

I figured out that loom.com was the best app for me to use with the help of my librarian Mrs. Shearon. I realized I wasn’t going to be able to cover the whole Canva platform in two minutes so I just covered the basic skills for beginners. This was very hard for me because I tend to over elaborate when explaining things.

I solved this problem by shortening my sentences and getting to the main points such as choosing presentation styles, understanding animations and effects, using uploads, and finding images easily.

Thank you for taking your time to read about my screen capture tutorial!
