Educational Technology in UT Austin School of Nursing
Serving the learning technology & instructional design needs of faculty in UT's School of Nursing
One of the easiest ways you can create student-centered, engaging materials for your in-person, hybrid, or online courses is with screencasts.
Wikipedia defines “screencast” as a digital recording of a computer screen, often containing audio narration.
But you might be thinking that the software is hard to learn or that you don’t have time for editing and so on.
Students can use UT Box for lots of things. And, instructors can use it to make their own lives and their students’ lives a little easier with the UT Box Mobile App. No matter where you, or your students are, you can access and share files all within your Canvas course.
For example, if a class assignment requires students to record and submit a video as part of a class project, they can record that video on their smart phone, then upload that video file from their phone straight to their UT Box account.
Students in the School of Nursing sometimes tell us that they’re running out of bandwidth when asked to do things like take quizzes or download files from Canvas.
