This workshop would cater to both (central office) district personnel and classrooms teachers alike. Atomic Learning, for example, is website that provides online tutorials on anything from MS Office to ActivStudio. But, most districts have customized in-house programs that staff have to use (grade book, staff development, curriculum management, etc.) that tutorials are not available for. Using Jing, and a free and easy to use program from TechSmith, districts can create their own tutorials to provide on-demand access to their employees. Likewise, teachers can also use the same software to create tutorials for their students to access if they need help after school hours. This session will show the attendees how to record a video tutorial using Jing (which only takes a few minutes), but more importantly will give them various examples of how this skill can be utilized in their district/classrooms.
