Question: any recommendations for free video compressors? In trying to upload my videos I find that they’re all very big files 🤷♀️😆🤨 all help much appreciated! #onlinelearning
In the last week I’ve been using QuickTime player to record screen walk and talks through past exams my students have done. I was getting a lot of the same questions via email so I made videos! I used I movie to edit. ALL FREE! Less time, and more creative than an email! Woohoo!
A really simple tool that I’m getting back into... I movie! It’s free, it’s simple (if you record a screen recording walking and talking through a Google slides) and there isn’t much editing if you record your videos this way. #backtobasics #happyteacher

I’ve used this online resource a lot! Beingn able to use videos, pause and ask students to answer questions before they can move into the next section. I loved this tool for teaching and so did my students! #teachingtool @edpuzzle
