Home Reno’s # 10, This is it, now its time to actually do the work.

Written by Daniel Santhaon

Well, this has been an interesting journey. When we were introduced to the Learning Project assignment I was absolutely pumped.  I love the fact that this was an assignment/project we got to decide our topic, what we are doing, how we are going to do it.  Throughout university I have not had a project similar

Written by Daniel Santhaon

I think I was outsmarted this week!! Normally here I would make a facetious comment like, “That isn’t to difficult.”, however considering this is blog post for a university class I probably should refrain from these types of sarcastic comments. I think my computer outsmarted me, for this post I wanted to build upon the

For this weeks post I wanted to go further with the design of my kitchen and see what my blueprint would look like with different paint colors on the kitchen walls, and the kitchen cupboards.  I had an idea when deciding on what colors I wanted to use.  For this post, I went online and

Am I a blogger and Home Reno combined. Now am I a screen recorder as well?? Post #4

Written by Daniel Santhaon

For this blog post we were asked to try a new application that we have not used before.  When completing this task I originally tried Canva, but I was not very happy with the result, so I made the decision to switch applications and I used ScreenCastify.

This application would be useful in a classroom to record any instructions or examples of information learned during a lesson.  If the lesson involves computers or smart board a teacher has the ability to record using the ScreenCastify app. as examples for students who were not present during the lesson.  These videos could be posted on the portal program (Google Classroom, EDSBY, etc.) for the students to use as a reference. If you as the teacher have the time and ability, ScreenCastify could also be used to record information prior to the lesson with the purpose to be used as examples during the in class time.

For this post I used ScreenCastify to record the other application I’ve used during my learning project, SketchUp. I started my video with the SketchUp home page, afterwards I display both version of my kitchen, current and remodelled.  I used the text feature on the app. to give brief description of what you are viewing in this video. I found this app quite easy to navigate through and straight forward to have a completed product.
