Looking back on my last post (about ESL 1: Communication), I realize I may have violated the first condition for some folks-- some teachers and students may want to start with something even quicker than shooting and sharing video. Here are some ideas you to try that are easy to set up:
- VoiceThread. Upload a picture or file, give your students the link, and let the conversation begin! At CVU, this has been used in world language classes to discuss famous Spanish paintings, for example. Students can provide text comments, record audio comments, or even use webcams to provide video comments.
- Jing. Jing is a free tool for recording screencasts. Students can record their voices as they capture video of their computer screen. They might explain how they solved a math problem using Geogebra or take the video on a tour of a house they designed in SketchUp.
- Audacity- It's free. It's on all school computers. Record audio, save as mp3. Easy.
