These videos can be made easily and used effectively in a variety of ways in classrooms. The ones I made on the left were recorded using ExplainEverything and uploaded via Vimeo. Those on the right by my students were made using ShowMe and shared to the ShowMe site where I was able to share them by embedding them here on my wensite. The children also emailed the links to their parents so that their learning could be shared.

I find these videos an excellent way for the kids to demonstrate a skill and brilliant for assessment purposes as I can easily see where their level of understanding currently sits and what I may need to do to further their grasp of the concepts involved. These were obviously made after some explicit teaching lessons on the multiplication processes.

Teaching first, technology second.
