What Technology to use when "Flipping"

I would like to start a new page on my blog with a list of different technologies that work to use when creating the media (video, podcast, etc) that goes along with flipping. Please take a few minutes to share what you use like the two examples below. Once I gather enough in the comments, I will create a new page up top so teachers interested in flipping have a place to start. Thank you for helping to build our Flipped Class Professional Learning Network!

Please share:
1. What technology you use to record
2. What technology you use to edit (if any)
3. Where/How you upload it online
4. How students can access it offline
5. Any links to software, apps, technology, etc that you mention
6. Any tips you can give for using this technology (pros, cons, etc)
7. A link to a sample of your videos

EXAMPLE 1 (ME)

1. I use an Avervision 300AF+ document camera that hooks right into my Mac via a USB. The software that comes with the doc cam saves the videos as MOV files straight to my desktop.
2. I do any editing with iMovie, or straight on the YouTube editing screen if they are simple things
3/4. I upload the videos to YouTube and SchoolTube, and have them in a folder to drag onto other student's USB's as needed.
5. Avervision can be found here - http://www.amazon.com/AVerMedia-VIS3AFPLS-Avervision-300AF/dp/B000X1274I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1328157810&sr=8-1
6. It is very easy as I just get to write underneath the camera and can use pencil, pen, highlighter, etc to get everything I want across to the students.
7. A sample of my videos can be found at www.youtube.com/crystalkirch


EXAMPLE 2

P.V. comment on last post.

We have smart boards therefore I just use the smart recorder and a USB microphone to record lessons. We use moodle as a classroom interface and I also upload all to youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNmOAupf6Us is an example. I have also used a flipcam and a tripod and done the same thing although it is a bit more cumbersome.

EXAMPLE 3
Check out this blog post with a pretty descriptive example

  1. I use Camtasia Studio (http://www.techsmith.com/camtasia.html) + a tablet PC to record AND edit all of my videos. I start by creating a PPT with examples (that I hand out to my students ahead of time) and ink on that. I expect students to take notes on the handout and check for completion at the start of class. I host all of my videos on:
    - screencast.com: http://www.screencast.com/users/Ms.Roshan/folders/AP%20Calculus%20AB
    - and also in iTunes: http://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/ap-calculus-ab/id393535229

    For calculator work, I use an iPevo document camera (http://www.ipevo.com/prods/Point-2-View-USB-Camera) to capture my work.

  2. I use Camtasia:Mac and a program called Jarnal to annotate on PDF copies of my note sheets. That way, I can post completed note sheets on my website or give them to students that need a scribe or other accommodations.

    I post videos on my personal website (brianbennett.org/learn) as well as YouTube (youtube.com/bennettscience) and Screencast.com.

  3. I'm not sure if it's technically "fliiping" but I like to use the application "ScreenFlow" on my Mac. It records my screen as well as my webcam (or just audio voice over). It includes some pretty basic editing, but was really all I needed. I had been using QuickTime to record a screencast, but ScreenFlow allows just a little bit more control. We have our own YouTube esque server - see an example at http://cedvideo.ncsu.edu/video/2338/ELP-344-Step-3-Google-Sites

  4. I'm not in the classroom anymore but when I tried this a few years ago I did it using slideshare.net (free account). My kids loved it.

    4. Study Hall, Library time, Advisory at school, FlashDrive @ home

    6. Knowledge & comprehension start beyond class time so that time in class can be used for students to apply, analyze, synthesize & evaluate with teacher facilitation as necessary.

    7. Student videos are mostly password protected althoguh there are a few available via our class tech blog: http://www.westsideschool.org/tech/category/students/

    General teacher videos are available at http://www.techwithintent.com

      None, really.

      3. Where/How you upload it online
      I upload my videos to schooltube, which compresses for me, then I link that to my classroom Edmodo site.

      I have the videos saved to flash drives, I am also in the progress of getting a DVD burner.

      It takes awhile for all the uploading, so be prepared early :)
