Low Cost Tools for eLearning

Part of the projects I’ve been working on over the past year involve the classes I teach at a local college.  Recently I’ve started posting short snippets from my class examples on YouTube.

YouTube allows videos that are less than 10 minutes long, although most of the videos are under 5 minutes. You can find a link to the videos here.

I’ve been creating the videos almost entirely with Camtasia, which I guess I’ll need to do a review for.

Take care an enjoy the videos.

As I spoke last year at the eLearning Guild’s Annual Gathering (2009) I will be speaking at the 2010 convention as well, although it has been renamed Learning Solutions.

I’m session 101 – Using Web Analytics to Track the Use of Formal and Informal Learning. The title is fairly self explanatory – but we will be looking how do we track usage of our learning site(s). I will show this using the free Google Analytics tool.

Given that I am Session 101 – I will be presenting the first day, Wednesday March 24, 2010 10:45 AM.

I hope to see you all there.

I have gotten sooooo far behind in publishing these reviews, helps, and hints; and it’s all my fault.

This past year has gotten so busy, and I keep finding new and cool software to play with (that is free or very low cost) and not finding the time to post about them.  My apologies. I will endeavor to do better coming up. I working on a posting schedule which should help – and I’ve got some great stories to tell as well. You should also be (hopefully) seeing some changes to the site in the next few weeks as I work on the layout a little bit – moving it from the default that I downloaded, into something even more “me”.
