“Technology, My New Best Friend: Learning the IN’s and OUT’s of Downloading Videos into RealPlayer, Zamzar, and Power point.” By Isabella Scaramucci, Memphis City Schools
Is this the right session for you? • Do you consider yourself a technology Newcomer? • Do you go to conferences and think if I could only do that in my classroom my students would love it? • Have you been to a conference and saw something amazing and thought, “I could do that but no one took the time to show me!” • Have you asked a presenter how to do something and they said, “Oh it’s easy, anyone can do it.” • Finally, do you leave the conference with lots of new theories but void of the practical application? • If you’ve answered yes to two or more of these questions, than this is the session for you.
What will we cover? • How to install RealPlayer • How to down load videos to RealPlayer • How to retrieve videos from RealPlayer • How to convert YouTube and TeacherTube videos in Zamzar • How to insert converted videos into power point • Exploration of free videos resources • Jing……..…creating your own video tutorials
