According to the educational blog site Appolicious, “Video lessons have become the newest trend in education (Magiera, 2012).” All sorts of educators are using screencasting as a way to rapidly prototype new instructional content.
This website is a resource to help its users learn about screencasting. The purpose of this website is to help novice educators learn as much as possible about screencasting as quickly and conveniently as possible. A screencast is a way of recording what is happening on a computer screen and sharing that recording with others. Producers of screencasts can integrate other videos, pictures, voice-overs, text and music to their creations. Screencasting can be used to teach, train, explain websites, flip classrooms, tell stories, or blog.

His 3200+ videos have been watched over 235 million times. Watch his TED Talk about the power of screencasting to reinvent education below.
