Abstract:

One of the newer technological developments is the availability of screencasts, recordings that capture audio narration along with computer screen images. This roundtable will discuss and share strategic use of screencasts in teaching statistics at various levels. Topics will include: Why you might use screencasting technology?, How did this technology help you address teaching challenges?, How did the use of screen capture affect your teaching and student learning if any (e.g., Did it change the way you teach? How did students use the video clips?) What suggestion or advice would you give to a colleague who is considering using screen capture in teaching for the first time? What software program did you use and what resources are available for support?
