Cumulative frequency screencast :: Plot the curve and find the median and IQR ::
Averages from frequency tables :: I guess this is a podcast with visuals. ::
Tree diagrams screencast :: YouTube video about tree diagrams in GCSE Probability. Me talking with illustrations provided by a PowerPoint presentation. I scripted the speech but then extemporised at various points - and managed this in two complete takes. ::
Planning summary :: YouTube screencast of RBL session 5 deals with distance travelled, the planning and milestones for resource based learning projects, the way I intend to use progress reviews to support participants in carrying out their project plans, and some quick hints on a piece of writing that is due in shortly. The screencast took two takes of about 7 or 8 minutes to produce. The visuals are simply the slides I will use in the f2f session anyway. ::
Probability screencast :: 9 minutes and 46 seconds on basic probability, including the probability scale, expected frequencies, mutually exclusive and independent events, possibility space diagrams and even a without replacement problem. All aimed at a GCSE Intermediate group. The .mov file was produced by 'presenting' a PowerPoint while speaking a commentary recorded using iShowU screen cam software. YouTube provide the hosting and convert the .mov to a Flash movie. ::
YouTube version of screencast :: The screen design screencast MOV was uploaded to YouTube. I'm now waiting for it to be 'processed' so that the video can be watched. ::
Screen design in RBL :: A screencast made on Mac OS X using iShowU and Video2SWF to produce a flash movie with synchronised sound. ::
