Screen Recordings

I could see Screen Recordings being used in any classroom to enhance the understanding of a concept. This could be a powerful tool for concepts that are taught in class and require detailed instructions. The teacher could explain a worksheet or lab in his/her own words and post it for students to view. If a student is absent or just needs to see the explanation again a screen recorder would be the perfect tool.

In my classroom we currently do a computer lab activity in which the students work to balance chemical equations. This is an activity that is partially done in class and partially at home. If I had a screen recording of the proper way to balance chemical equations the students could refer to it anytime they got stuck. What a time saver!
