Y6 How do I make a video tutorial?

Why?
People use video tutorials to find out how to do things on their computers or to learn new skills in a range of areas.

  • What video tutorials have you used before?
  • What could you teach someone via a video tutorial?

How?

  1. Go to Screen-o-matic
  2. Watch the short video demo
  3. Click on Start Recording
  4. You may need to give permission for things to run (Click “Always allow”, tick the “Dpn’t ask me again” and “Run” if you get those messages.  You may have to do this more than once…)
  5. Try
    1. recording a section of your screen
    2. playing it back
    3. saving as a video
    4. setting up and using a microphone
    5. other features
  6. Now think about an ICT skill that you could teach using a video tutorial
  7. Practise the skill, plan how you will teach it, Keep it simple

Be reflective

How did that go?
