One Activity

  1. Derek Borman - Mesa Community College says:

    Intended for creation of screencasts for statistics course. Specifically used to create tutorials (“walkthroughs”) of specific statistical analyses/processes.

    Pros
    Audio recording is good. Writing is fairly accurate (but would be better with retina iPad). Excellent export features–video/image–>DropBox, Email, Evernote, YouTube. Can annotate over PPT and PDF. Lots of annotation tools (arrows, highlighting, etc.). Can insert external media into presentation. Really provides a great alternative to the somewhat proprietary LiveScribe.

    Cons
    Video export/compression is time consuming. No way to quickly group screen items manually. Writing is not accurate enough to effectively use as delivery mode in live statistics class. Sometimes externally inserted media not viewable in the app. Biggest gripe–cannot create multiple screens, jump back and forth between screens and then create a video that jumps back and forth in the same sequence, with the same timing. In other words, if I have two screens (slides) that I create and progressively move back and forth–adding content to one and then the other, and so forth–the exported video will not show this same slide-to-slide, building of progressive ideas. Instead, the exported video will go through everything on screen one and then everything on screen two, which just doesn’t work. Hope this makes sense. It’s a deal-breaker for my intended use.
