               ~Screen Recording~
                                  Why do this…          How to do this     

A few weeks ago, I was experimenting with different ways to advertise and promote my teaching
resources. Since I don’t idle well, am retired, and considering the current state of the world; I definitely had time on my hands. So playing on the laptop has become) my current hobby. I have created and implemented screen- shots, a series of screenshots, taken videos of the resource in action, and so on. They were ok, but not something I wanted to ‘put out there’. Eventually, I landed on recording the screen (displaying the resource to promote) and talking about not only the resource, but how to use it and what it may look like in actual use, not just a screenshot or two from the entire resource.  

   Click the link below for an example.
  SAMPLE
   

My hope is that a short video explaining a resource will be more appealing to and capture interest in a way that stands out from the crowd a bit.

                                         Why do this… 

Remaining consistent with the sample above,
❓ Who - You, the blogger, creator, and teacher
❓ What - Learn how to create and screen recording and how to use it
❓ When - Now
❓ Where - Here
❓ Why - Improved explanations, delivery, promotion
❓ How - See below

You, the blogger, creator, and teacher, will learn how to create screen recordings upon reading this blog post so you can improve explanations, delivery, and promotion of your resources or teach a lesson after following these directions. (Clever how that worked out!)

Alternative Sentence: You, the blogger, creator, and teacher will learn how to create screen
recordings upon reading this  blog post and following the directions in order to improve explanations, delivery, and promote  your resources or teach a lesson.
