Instructional Media Screencast **

**Description:** We learned how to use a program called Jing to create a tutorial or instructional screencast. Jing is a program where you can share a snapshot of the screen or document you are working on, you can create a tutorial on how to use a specific program or simply use it to narrate photos. Screencast is the program where you store your Jing. I used Jing to create a tutorial on how to use blackboard and sign the Learner Support Agreement.

**Process:** I learned how to use Jing and Screencast in class. I chose to create a tutorial because my online class is for Kindergarteners. I created my screencast using Jing and then saved it in screencast. After saving it I put the link into blackboard for my students to view.

** Reflection: ** I enjoyed learning about these programs and I hope that I can continue to work with them and use them in my classroom. I think it is amazing that you can actually capture the screen you are working on and use it as a tutorial. I have watched many and never knew how it was done. It amazes me how far we have come in technology! I look forward to learning more.
