Video Activities Two & Three

1. **Your Operating System:** Windows 7 2. **Statement About Technique Used:** I encountered minor difficulties while attempting to complete this part of the project. I read the information produced by //Wikipedia// and it stated to use the buttons Alt + Prt Sc to capture a screenshot. However, I could not get both of these buttons to work properly so I searched the same concept on //Google//. I discovered that I needed to use the buttons Fn + Prt Sc and my image opened in //GIMP//. 3. **Statement About The Process:** I think it is important (for anyone) to become knowledgeable about screenshots because you can show someone your screen or it can even help to explain a problem that you may be experiencing with an assignment or project. I think it would also be useful for a teacher in an instructional module as he/she discusses the steps to follow when using a certain program. Ultimately, I thought the process was extremely simple when I determined the correct buttons to use and captured my screenshot.

1. **Your Operating System:** Windows 7 & //Jing// 2. **Statement About Technique Used:** The tool, //Jing//, is relatively easy to use when attempting to capture a screenshot. I selected the area that I wanted to appear in the screenshot, inserted an arrow and a text box, and saved the image to be uploaded on to my Wikispace Page. I think both the arrow and text tools are helpful when attempting to present information on the screen that may be important and useful for the individual viewing the information. 3. **Statement About The Process:** I didn't encounter any difficulties or problems with this tool. I thought the program was simple and the instructions were straightforward. As stated above, the features within //Jing// are helpful when trying to highlight areas of importance or draw someone's attention towards particular information. I would use this tool again in the future to produce a screenshot with the text and arrow tools. media type="file" key="Video_Activity_Two.swf" width="360" height="270" 1. **Your Operating System:** Windows 7 & //Jing// 2. **Statement About Technique Used:** I think //Jing// is an extremely useful program when attempting to capture a screenshot with video. I selected the part of my screen that I wanted everyone to view and clicked on capture video. //Jing// contains user-friendly features that are simple and easy for anyone to use. 3. **Statement About The Process:** WOW! The process was very straightforward and simple. This part of the assignment has been one of the most easiest and fun! I will use this tool in the future for various projects and lessons because you can easily explain a concept to someone through step-by-step directions as you capture your video in //Jing//. media type="custom" key="10924256" align="center" 1. **Your Operating System:** Windows 7 & Animoto 2. **Statement About Technique Used:** I really enjoy exploring and creating slideshows in different programs on the internet. For Video Activity Three, I viewed several of the programs provided in the instructions because I first created a slideshow in //Kizoa// and later realized that I would have to pay for it. //Kizoa// allowed me to enhance my slideshow by inserting transitions, effects, animations, and music. //Animoto// is a very basic program (unless you want to pay for it). The only options provided by this program were to upload my photos and to insert text and music. This program is very easy to use because it arranged the final slideshow for you. Personally, I would like to have more options when producing a slideshow but only with a smaller cost. 3. **Statement About The Process: **The process that I used could have been much more efficient if I would have known about the prices within the slideshow programs. Some of the programs would allow you to insert effects into your slideshow, but would require you to pay for them at the end. It frustrates me when I spend my valuable time on a slideshow and then realize that I have wasted my time due to the costs of the programs. Ultimately, I just don't feel like I would use a slideshow program enough to spend $30 on it.
