Tuesday, May 17th (Odd Day)

6th:  Today in class you will be playing our Jeopardy games that you worked so hard to create.  Before we get started I will give you about five minutes to open up your game and make any last minute adjustments.  Before we play, you should also save your game to the in bin as your name(s).

 

7th:  At this point, everyone should be working on the About Us page Assignment.  In order to receive a grade for your homepage assignment, you will need to print it out and hand it in to me.  If you have not finished the homepage assignment, you should work on it outside of class and hand it in within two weeks.  If you need to stay after school to work on your homepage, I will be available on Thursday until 3:45.

8th:  Now that you have your step by step walk-through for your tutorials, it is time to create the actual video.  For this video we will be using a screen-cast program online called screencastomatic.
 

In order to walk your viewer through the steps of your tutorial you will need to use the steps that you created in your video.  I would use MS Word to show the steps although I know that other students have used sticky notes on their desktop.  However you choose to include your steps, you should have a finished product that looks something like this.  

 

NOTE:  When recording your screen-cast you should use the "small HD" setting in the recording window.  Otherwise, if you record full screen the video file size will be very large.

After you have completed your tutorial and you are ready to save it, you will need to save it as follows:

1.  Click on export movie
2.  Select "Windows Media Player (AVI)" for the type
3.  Click on Export and then save your file to the W drive with an appropriate file name (e.g. How to Copy and Paste Tutorial)
