tdt1 Task 3

Carly created a tutorial video to show students how to access their online learning platforms from home. She used the Screencastify extension to record her screen while narrating the steps. This allowed students to see exactly what to click through. Carly started in the Clever app students are familiar with and then demonstrated navigating to the Wonders portal, explaining the different buttons and features. She concluded by recapping what the app is used for and offered additional support if needed. Creating an outline helped Carly stay organized and focused on the purpose of teaching students to access their online curriculum independently.

TDT1 Task 3

C. When deciding what kind of video I would like to include on my website, I knew that

providing a resource for my students and families on how to access important apps was

important. At home learning requires students to be knowledgable of many different online

platforms and applications. Our district uses Wonders for our ELA curriculum, so I knew that

students would need to know how to access the content. Just giving students written directions

when using new online resources is not the most effective practice. I decided to use a recording

extension app called Screencastify for my video. Screencastify allows users to capture their

computer screen as the recording occurs. I felt that having my students view exactly what to do

step by step with my voice guiding them in the background would make the biggest impact.

Screencastify has the option of sharing your screen, audio, and video of yourself. I wanted

students to focus on my directions and what their screen should look like each step, not my face,

so I chose not to share my face in the video. As soon as you hit the record button on the

Screencatstify extension, you are given the option of what you would like to share and then the

recording begins. All I had to do was walk through the steps that I wanted my students to take on

my own computer while narrating what I was doing and why. Screencastify captured my voice,

all the clicks of my mouse, and everything that I saw in real time on my screen. Once I was

finished going through my tutorial, I ended the recording and had the option to edit my video. I

decided to cut a few things out of my video, and saved my video onto Youtube. Screencastify

automatically uploads the recorded video to Google Drive, but I wanted my students to have

more access to my video, so that is why I chose Youtube. Youtube allows users to share videos

easily, so it was a perfect fit.

D. Creating a conceptual framework was very important in the organization of my multimedia

product. Recording yourself can be pretty intimidating, so planning out the purpose and flow of

what you want to present can be very helpful. I knew the purpose of my video, but figuring out

how to best present it to my students was challenging. With each step of my process I wanted to

keep the purpose of my video in mind. I wanted to start my tutorial in an app that I am confident

my students know how to use and access. Clever is that app. Students use this app to access other

important apps listed under our classroom page. By using Clever, students will automatically be

signed into the other apps in their student google accounts. My students use Clever almost daily

in the actual classroom setting, so I figured it would be a good starting point. From Clever, I

wanted to put emphasis on what app the tutorial would be about. I wanted to make sure that I

took the time to point out the app and why we would be using it for at home learning. Once

students open up the app, they are brought to the Wonders portal home screen. I wanted to put

importance on what they would see once on that home screen, including the to do button, words

to learn button, the write button, the games button, and the read button. To wrap up the tutorial, I

wanted to recap what the app is used for and how we might be using it. Just like with any other

new activity, I wanted to give my students the opportunity to ask for further clarification and

offer them more support if they needed it. Having this story board really helped me stay on track

and stay aligned with the purpose of my video.
