What tool did your group use to deliver the PD tutorial? Why?
Our group chose to use the tool Blogger for our Group Leadership Project. We chose Blogger because all of us have a blog page using Blogger and find it user friendly and we all agreed that we would like to learn more about it.
What did you learn during the development process of the final product?
During the development of our Group Leadership Project, we used Camtasia. This was new to me and I learned the basics about how to use it.
What would you do differently if you had to develop a similar product again?
In order to split up the work, we assigned each of us a couple different topics to teach about Blogger. We each wrote our own scripts and recorded our own parts using
Camtasia . We then emailed our parts to Lisa who then used Screencast to put them all together. If I did this project again, I would have had us split up the work differently. It was a bit confusing using Camtasia the way we did. I didn't find it to be very user friendly and I also didn't like having to download a new program on my computer. It may have been easier to do a few Jing's, and then use Camtasia to record the Jing videos only because I think Jing is awesome and super easy to use and Camtasia can record over five minutes. Either way, our project turned out fine and I'm satisfied with our finished project. Not to mention I had a great group of ladies on my team and I think we all worked very well together.
Here is our Group Leadership Project Screencast...
Although I like what Camtasia has to offer, I think you may be right that it may have been easier to Jing everything first. I, too, love Jing because of its simplicity. Our final project turned out very well in the end. I am glad we had this challenge!
