Library Classes: Screencasting with Camtasia Studio for Windows/PC (co-instructed with FAME)

An introductory hands-on workshop for the Windows screencasting program, Camtasia Studio. This class will introduce the concept of screencasting and work through a sample screencast, from recording to simple editing to production. This class is presented as a collaboration between the Galter Health Sciences Library and the Feinberg Academy of Medical Educators.

All equipment will be provided, but participants should bring their own USB flash drives, or other suitable storage, if they wish to save their work. Participants should also bring a sample PowerPoint presentation that they will then use to create a voice-over screencast.

NOTE: This is a 1.5-hour class. Additionally, approximately 45 minutes of pre-work will be required (via online modules) and will be sent to each participant.

After completing the pre-work and in-person workshop, participants will be able to:

Define screencasting and explain what features distinguish it from other modes of educational technology (pre-work)
Identify the reasons for using screencasting for teaching (pre-work)
Plan an educational screencast by creating an outline and storyboard (pre-work)
Execute the basic functions of Camtasia Studio (in-person workshop)
Create a basic screencast using Camtasia Studio (a sample screencast will be recorded, edited and produced during the in-person workshop)
