Today, I go to the staff meeting at Mt. Ararat Middle School and one of the teachers sends me an email saying that he would like for his students to do some Khan Academy-style videos on how to do certain math problems. At his former school they had iPads and so used "Explain Everything" for this type of activity. Was there something like "Explain Everything" that could be done on a MacBook?I then remembered that one of the tools Richard showed us was PixiClip. PixiClip allows users to create and narrate drawings. It records not only the whiteboard you are drawing on, but can also capture your voice and possibly even video of you as you draw and narrate. Users can also upload pictures to the whiteboard to label. When you make a recording you can share it via social media like Facebook or Twitter, but you can also get the embed code to put into a web page, wiki, or blog. Click play on my example below.
