Jing is an exciting tool that was used earlier this semester. Now, I am using it to create an instructional video on how to use Wordle. I downloaded Jing earlier in the semester and used the tool to create a video. This was very easy to do. I then uploaded my video to my Screencast account. This technology provides an easy way to create instructional videos in the classroom. Jing could be used to create tutorials that students can view over and over, or could be used when students are absent. This tool could also be used in differential instruction to help students who are not comprehending the concept while the teacher helps the remainder of the class move on. The ISTE NETS T standards that relate this activity are: 1.d. and 3.c. By using Jing and Screencast, teachers can model knowledge construction by engaging in learning with students and colleauges in a virtual environment. Teachers are also able to communicate relevant information (lessons,activities,etc.) effectively to students and peers using a variety of digital-age media and formats (Jing and Screencast). My video can also be viewed at this link: screencast2.
