Screencast is a very cool tool to use in the classroom. I can use this in various lessons for teaching computer/technology lessons. I made a screencast on how to change the theme of your Google email just to see how to do it. It was so easy. I am going to work on making a lesson for my 4th - 6th grade students to use this. I think they would really like it.

Thing 11: Slideshare
I really enjoyed viewing the different videos on Slideshare. I chose the video "Teaching with Technology no longer belongs in a lab" because I am a stand-alone computer teacher. I like the idea of going into classrooms and helping the teacher to intergrate different levels of technology in their classroom curriculum. I agree with what the video says about stand-alone computer lab classes becoming obsolete in the very near future. A lot of teachers today do not know much about technology or feel insecure about using it so they do not experiment with it with their students. If the computer lab teacher was able to assist them, I think they would become comfortable and find that they can do so much more in their classrooms.
