One
of the most creative way of explaining things is to record your
desktop i.e. the teacher wants to be very practical by showing the
students a demonstration about the lesson. This is because the
material found on the internet is too in general. The teacher knows
his class, so he has to speak in a way that his students understand.
The students, watching and listening to their own teacher explaining things may find it
more user friendly. In other words, even if the teacher says the same
things all over again, the fact that they see and hear their own
teacher, works wonders! Recording your desktop gives a personal touch to teaching in this computer related era!
There
is no expensive material involved, just a webcam, a microphone and a
simple, free open source program which everybody knows about – VLC.
As with other software, the teacher needs some time to practice and
feel at home with this software. Maybe some
soft music playing in the background would
make it ideal for the students. Ideally
for the teacher is to play some tutorials
in order to feel more comfortable in using this software program.
There are some You
Tube tutorials as well.
Those
using Linux, have a large variety such as: vokoscreen;
wink; recordmydesktop;
XvidCap;
Istanbul;
ffmpeg (mac/windows
too); kazam.
