Today in class we will continue preparing for our screen casting experience. There are many things to take into consideration when preparing for a screen casting session that may not be obvious. Please read this article on Screencasting featured on Mahalo.com and create a "To do:" list to help you prepare for your recording session. Specifically, think about:
Where will you record your screen cast?
Which software program will you use? Will you need to install it on the system before recording or is it already configured?
If you are planning to record your own voice will you be bringing your own headset or is one available where you plan to record?
Will you need to make other adjustments to the system you will be recording on, such as freeing the desktop of clutter, installing other programs, testing your headset..?
The article should help you identify issues that you will need to plan for, use it as a guide to create your "To do" List. Please outline your "To do" List on your blog with a brief summary describing your screencasting project, topic and next steps by Wednesday, October 28, 2009.
