Screen Capturing allows you to take an image on the computer and put it with audio. There are many screen capturing software programs, but the two that we explored in class are Quick Time and Jing. 

Quick Time is the perfect choice if you already have a YouTube Channel. This is because you must have something to save your screen capturing video to prior its making, or else you will lose all of your data. However, if you do have a YouTube channel, then Quick Time is arguably the easiest screen capturing program to use. 

Jing is a free software program that allows up to 5 minutes of screen capturing/audio recording. Unlike Quick Time, it gives you a code so that you can embed your video on your webpage, blog, or wiki. Nice !!!!

How do I plan on using screen capturing in my middle school social studies and science classroom?

1.Students can work in groups or independently to create a screen caption video that reflects their comprehension of content. 
2. I think screen capturing is a great tool for teachers because it allows them to create tutorials for Flip Teaching where the students watch a video for homework and come to class the next ready ready to expand upon and practice the content.

Below is a video that tells the story of a teacher who uses Flipped Teaching, Check it out!
