Microtraining

Originating in the digital world and more specifically in Web 2.0, a digital badge (also known as a digital insignia or digital button) is a digital device in the form of an icon used to confirm the acquisition of skills, knowledge or competencies, particularly in the field of online education. This concept, already recognised in more traditional forms, can be used as a motivational and rewarding tool, and even as an electronic certificate for work or an activity completed by an Internet user.

RESOURCES & TOOLS

Screen recording
Screen recorders allow instant screen capture and sharing of the resulting video. These videos can be used as course content for students or as presentations for conferences. Students can also submit a recording they have created as a piece of work.
Recording PowerPoint narrations
Did you know that you can record narrations of your PowerPoint presentations? To do so, navigate to the "Slideshow/Slide Show" tab and then press "record slideshow/Record Slide Show".
Swivl

The small Swivl robot makes it easy for teachers to capture, record and share teaching videos. It's useful for professional development, recording teaching sessions or submitting presentations for conferences, among other things. For more information, visit swivl.com.
