At Woodland Heights School we continue to explore new and exciting technologies that we can use to further improve our school program, communications, and student experiences. One new tool involves 'screencasting'. A screencast allows the author to record the content on a computer screen and provide narration as well. This allows us to record and share tours and tutorials for various learning tools and resources that we use in our school with students. Soon you are likely to see a number of screencasts on class wikis to promote student learning at home or to help you to assist your child in his or her learning. Stay tuned for more exciting news about tools and technologies that we will employ to further improve your child's educational experience at Woodland Heights School!
To learn more about our school website and about what screencasts can do, check out our new school website screencast tours: one and two. [You can view a full-screen HD version of the screencast by clicking the icon next to the speaker icon in the lower right-hand corner of the viewing box.]
Enjoy, and hope to see you soon at Woodland Heights School!
