This is so useful for instructions.<br />4) <b><i>Screencast-o-matic </i></b>where you can explain and show at the same time.<br />5) <b><i>Vocaroo.com</i></b> where you can give verbal instructions to the class.<br /><br />Best of all - they are all free!<br /><br />This slideshare shows you how to use each one of these applications.<br /><br /><div id="__ss_10331058" style="width: 425px;"><strong style="display: block; margin: 12px 0 4px;"><a href="http://www.slideshare.net/fionabeal/your-blog-as-a-teaching-tool" title="Your blog as a teaching tool">Your blog as a teaching tool</a></strong><object height="355" id="__sse10331058" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://static.slidesharecdn.com/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=yourblogasateachingtool-111125180754-phpapp02&stripped_title=your-blog-as-a-teaching-tool&userName=fionabeal" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"/><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"/><param name="wmode" value="transparent"/><embed name="__sse10331058" src="http://static.slidesharecdn.com/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=yourblogasateachingtool-111125180754-phpapp02&stripped_title=your-blog-as-a-teaching-tool&userName=fionabeal" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><br /><div style="padding: 5px 0 12px;">View more <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/">presentations</a> from <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/fionabeal">fionabeal</a>.</div></div><br /></div>
