And exactly what i'll do. What i wasn't fully comprehending was that some of the software was for screenshots (static) and some was for video. ( i had picked it up that they all did something different but hadn't got my head round which was for which). So now this is very clear, and exactly what I was looking for so that different learners could get the most use out of the resource (with as little time put in as necessary from the educator.)Cool! Thanks so much. That’s brilliant. And exactly what i’ll do. What i wasn’t fully comprehending was that some of the software was for screenshots (static) and some was for video.

If you record video with Camstudio, it will pop up in the Camstudio player when processing is finished. At that point open ScreenHunter. Play the Camstudio video with your finger poised on the ScreenHunter capture key. As your video plays past a key point in the demonstration, hit the ScreenHunter key! This will produce a series of images that you can use to support the video. Embed the video into your blog, then start adding in the images below it. Add a few notes below each image and you have a fully rounded screencast! You have video for the Broadband - quick to comprehend types, and you have static printable images and notes for those on dialup or would prefer to print out the demo and study it carefully. I reckon you should do both!
