Tip of the Week: Screencastify Submit and WeVideo! 

As you may (or may not) know, we have a site license for Screencastify (the chrome extension that allows you to record your screen to create screencasts). Recently, we added a feature called "Screencastify Submit" to the license. 

Screencastify Submit! 

Screencastify Submit is a way to create an assignment for your students that requires them to create THEIR OWN screencast (with screen recording and/or webcam). You can set up the assignment so that when they are done, they just submit it to you and you get all of the videos in one folder. 

How do I use Screencastify Submit? (Please watch the video tutorial) 

WeVideo licensing is back! 

We also now have 100 WeVideo licenses to share. 

Please watch the "How to Use WeVideo" tutorial created by Jen Jonson. 

I have set up 3 classes that you can book using THIS GOOGLE SHEET.  I will keep this sheet on the EHS website (School Information- School Services- Staff Resources (Staff Only)- Technology Quick Links)  

Please add your name, # of students, and dates you will need to create the movies. After you sign up, please email Sandy Blanc (sblanc@sau16.org) to let her know that you signed up.  Once the students create the videos, I have them download them to their Google Drive and then I can reassign the licenses.  We only have 3 class sets, so once the "1st Group" fills up the 3 classes, you can sign up for the 2nd Group (with the understanding that group 1 will need to be done with them to use them.
