Jordan School District is currently participating in a trial for Screencastify Pro, a screen recording software for faculty and students. You can sign in to Screencastify by going to screencastify.com and using your Google login and password for the district. This trial will allow teachers and students unlimited time for screen recordings, the ability to save finished videos to Google Drive, and even the option to embed comprehension questions within the videos! On Friday, the Screencastify extension will be made available in both teacher and student Chrome browsers. This is the easiest way to access Screencastify and start using this terrific program. Below I’ve shared a few links to help you get started. Please contact Jared Covili, Consultant for Digital Teaching and Learning, at jared.covili@jordandistrict.org with questions.
