Project 2: Screencast Video

Title: How to Create a Simple Video in Microsoft Powerpoint
Audience: Teachers and upper elementary students
Purpose: This screencast was made to demonstrate in 3 minutes how to convert any Powerpoint slideshow to a video file. In this example, users will learn how to enter a title, insert a video, insert an image, and save the file as an mp4.
My Uses: I will use screencasting (and even this specific video) to teach students how to convert their slideshows into mp4 files. In addition, I will use it during professional development with teachers to show the power of this teaching tool.
My Learners’ Uses: Often student iPad applications (e.g. iMovie movie trailer templates) are fixed and do not offer a way to add references/citations to a finished product. This method will allow students to insert their product in Powerpoint, add a slide with additional information and save the entire file as an mp4. Teachers will learn how to create instructional videos for students as well as how to save any Powerpoint as a video for easy sharing.


Now, please enjoy the video!
