Jing Image

I began this assignment by downloading and installing Jing & then watching a video explaining how Jing works.

I then created a graphic that I believe I could use in my teaching:

This graphic could be used when teaching synthetic division to Algebra 2 students in high school.  It shows two ways to find the same thing.  It could be introduced, discusses, then left up on a “smart board” as an example as students work on similar problems.

Jing is a pretty neat program that can do a lot of things.  Using Jing I can create visual instructional materials that combine text, graphics, and images.  Jing outputs “.png” type files that you can save to any folder on your computer by clicking the save button after you have completed working on your capture.  You can access your Jing history by clicking the history button on the sun, right next to the capture button.  If you screen cast an item in your history, then it shows up as a new item in your history and will create a screen cast link.   To import Jing objects into a blogger post, you simply have to paste the link that Jing automatically put on your clipboard or you can import an image and select it from a saved file on your computer.  You publish your artifact by clicking share and a link is created on screencast.com.  You can share your artifact by creating that link by clicking share and then pasting it wherever you need.
