Screencasting...for Online and Blended Learning
Key Terms
Screencast
Blended Learning
Flipped Classroom
A screencast is a digital recording of computer screen output often containing audio narration–sometimes called a video screen capture.
What is a Screencast?
Online and Blended Learning
Blended learning is learning that combines face-to-face classroom methods with computer-mediated activities.
There is no real consensus on a definition of blended learning.
The terms "blended," "hybrid," and"mixed-mode" are often used interchangeably in current research literature
The Flipped Classroom
The flipped classroom is a model of teaching in which a student's homework consists of the traditional lecture viewed outside of class as a vodcast or screencast.
Class time is spent on inquiry-based learning which would include what traditionally is viewed as a student's homework.

Why?
• A means to increase interaction and personalized contact time between students and teachers
• An environment where students take responsibility for their own learning
• A classroom where students who are absent due to illness or extra-curricular activities such as athletics or field-trips, don't get left behind
• A lesson where content is permanently archived for review or remediation
• A class where all students are engaged in their learning
• A place where all students can get a personalized education
There are a couple of free, web-based applications that can be used to create a screencast.
Screencast-o-Matic allows the use of a webcam. It also allows extended recording time up to 15 minutes.
