Screencastify

By -



Hi,

In recent workshops, I've been showing people screencastify. It's a great Google Chrome extension to quickly and easily make screen or webcam recordings with annotation, should you wish, that save automatically to Google Drive. 

Go to https://www.screencastify.com/ and click add to chrome to begin

Here is a video tutorial I recommend you watch, it shows how to install, record and annotate,  then how to share your recording on a Google Classroom and / or Google site. 



Once installed you can get the premium version for free for now using these steps
