I have experimented with using Yavapai College's tegrity classroom set up for capturing video instructions on the use of on line registration. This was a much easier way to capture instructions. The downsides are similar to using tegrity - in order to make a really clear, tight video you really need to be prepared - I tried several versions, and even this one, which went better, is not really ready for publication. Scripting the content might help some, plus testing all the material first before capturing. At first I thought 5 minutes was a long time, but upon experimentation, it was tough to say everything I wanted to say in 5 minutes - again, pre-planning, and breaking each topic up into bite sized bits will be key to being successful. I can see how this could be extremely useful for completing projects I have had on hold - namely training videos for both staff and students on the use of our new on line registration system for the non-credit side of Yavapai College.
