Online Teaching Reflections
For the "Lesson" portion of the 2-hour synchronous/synchronous blocks of time shared on Day -8. I will be creating screencast recordings of me annotating over PDF templates that that my students will be been given hard copies of (emailed to parents and printed).
I have a MacBook Air, and not an iPad, thus creation of these recorded lessons is a bit tricky on a Mac. Turns out drawing over a PDF in a seamless way is not that easy. I am brushing off my old #flipclass skills and below is the technology I will be using along with a video example:
- Screencasting: ScreenFlow
- Annotating/Drawing on PDF: PDF Element (software)
- Annotating/Drawing on PDF: Wacom Intuos (hardware)
- Sharing Video: YouTube
- Embedding Video/Tracking: Google Forms
