Read here for steps on creating video/tutorials to post to YouTube:
- Get an app like ExplainEverything (Educreations, Knowmia or other recording, annotation, whiteboard app). (I prefer ExplainEverything "just right", of the three mentioned)
- Create the background object that you will annotate during your video, then take a screen capture of that image.
- You capture a screen by pressing the Home button and Sleep button at the same time, which then saves your screen capture to the iPad photo album.
- Open ExplainEverything (or other whiteboard/screencast app) and import the image you saved from above (note you don't have to import an image - you can use the tools that come with the whiteboard/screencast app.
- Start recording using the tools you need. (Note: When you record you see all sorts of pop ups from the tools, but these will not appear upon playback.)
- If you don't like the recording, you can re-record until it is just as you desire.
- Repeat steps 2-6 for each of your slides.
- When slides are completed, you have a number of options for saving - one of which is YouTube (you have to have a YouTube account to save to YouTube).
Now use the link from YouTube in Froylc, other screencasts, or other apps that allow URL links. It is awkward at first so be patient with yourself, but then it gets easier and additively easy. In no time you will be app smashing, creating videos and on your way to creating differentiated opportunities for your students.
