Jing is Bling
Here is a link to my first attempt with Jing (just click Lesson Plan #1 for the link to view the video.) The video is an overview of my Lesson Plan #1 with technology integrated. I really really enjoyed this form of technology and think that it would be great for a class and students. I find it easy to make a lesson and if I was to add the webcam feature to a lesson or an example it really allows the audience to feel connected. I know that in my feature I will most likely be using Jing not only in the classroom setting but also to within my home life. I think I also like Jing more than voicethread as it was quick and easy to understand. This would be a great tool for teachers who knew they needed a subsitute teacher for awhile, or for a teacher that had a student who had been ill for awhile. All the teacher would have to do is go over the lesson and make a video with their voice to explain the subject matter. I highly recommend anyone and everyone to check out jing at jingproject.com to learn more and explore.

I agree, Jing is awesome! I didn't think about it till reading your post, but using it outside of our classrooms will also be beneficial! I can't think of how many times my parents have called and asked me a computer related question. Using Jing, I can give them step by step directions on how to do something they are having troubles with! Good idea!
