1.What tool did your group use to deliver the PD tutorial? Why?
Our group used screencast-o-matic to record our portions of the tutorial that we were teaching. We chose this program because it was very user friendly and it allowed you to make screencasts of any length.
2.What did you learn during the development process of the final product?
When I was recoding my portion of the project, I learned that you have to do many trial runs in order to get the screencast to turn out exactly how you want it. I ran into many obstacles while recording, such as background noises, microphone volume, and trying to stay within the allotted time.
3.What would you do differently if you had to develop a similar product again?
If I was to do this project again, I would practice saying my lines while running through the steps on my computer screen multiple times before starting the actual recording.

In the past, I've used PhotoStory3, MovieMaker2, Camtasia, and Pinnacle Studio to create photo montages and videos. Since all of my computers are running on XP, I'm going to have to wait a "quality playtime" opportunity to present itself. Thanks to your tutorial - I'll know where to start.
