Creating your own Khan Academy
A screencast is a digital recording of computer screen output, also known as a video screen capture, often containing audio narration. The term screencast compares with the related term screenshot; whereas screenshot generates a single picture of a computer screen, a screencast is essentially a movie of the changes over time that a user sees on a computer screen, enhanced with audio narration.
Why screencast
- for students who are gone
- some students don't get it the first time so they can view it as many times as they want
- great for when the teacher is absent
