SMART Board and Screencasts: Using FreeScreencast.com

I have become a very big fan of the FreeScreenCast.com website that allows you to record, save, and view screencasts quickly and easily. Best of all, it's free!!

I will demonstrate how to create a screencast video using the FreeScreenCast.com website and Screencast Recorder application that you download from the FreeScreenCast.com website.

This first video takes you through the process of how to record your screencast. The second video shows you the actual screencast.

Smart Notebook Software Video Tutorials

I would like to introduce to everyone a new resource for Smart Notebook Training. I have created a new group of videos on TeacherTube that has various tutorials for using the Smart Notebook software.

Anyone is welcome to add videos to this group and share what they know with others. Thank you Lynn Reedy for adding your training videos. They're great!

You may also subscribe and/or join to this group to receive notifications when a new video is added. Here's a link to all the SMART Board related groups. These libraries are growing and it's up to you and me to share what we know. Let's see if we can create the best resource library for SMART Board videos anywhere! Sharing is caring!

Smartboard Video Resources

It's time to start up the presses again here at Teachers Love SMART Boards. I hope everyone had a great holiday!

The wonderful people from Smart Technologies have started building a video library on YouTube. It is a great idea and I'm sure this will become a great resource. In addition to their videos, you can also find various training videos on my YouTube site. If you're looking for a quick video demonstration on how to use your SMART Board, let me know; I can usually put something together in a few minutes. I think video training is a great tool for learning.

Here's a fun training video that demonstrates how to add a YouTube video into your SMART Notebook software. This video uses a Firefox add-on called DownloadHelper to capture the YouTube video. If you're not using Firefox then I recommend using Zamzar to capture YouTube videos to your harddrive. I'm sure other people can recommend various ways to do this.
