Screencasting

My screencast features the app Sketchbook Express, which is the free "lite" version of Sketchbook Pro. This is one of the apps I plan to use with my elementary students with the new iPads I am receiving for my Digital Arts Center in our elementary art studio.

I often illustrate new techniques, processes and media during short "demos" in class. At times, I am challenged to maintain all the students attention and have been pondering recording my demos ahead of time to play instead of conducting them live. Screencasting is a good way to present demos that may capture more of my students' attention. I could also "replay" them when necessary, as well.

I would use this screencast to illustrate some of the things you can do with this app. This screencast could also be used in my class blog at Weebly.com for reference and sharing with others outside our studio. Digital Arts is a new realm of which I and my students will be exploring, and I am enjoying discovering new ways to share information.
