Many educators are starting to have quite a presence on web via blogs and websites and many now communicate with their students, parents, and other educators via the internet. If you have a class site and frequently create ‘how to’ lessons that include screenshots you really need to check out ‘Awesome Screenshot’ for Chrome and Firefox. It makes life so easy. As you can see below the app lets you take a screenshot of any or all of your desktop and then annotate it with boxes, pointers, and instructions. You can then save it to your desktop, email it, or upload onto your google.doc account direct. Very handy and time saving. A great way to make instructions clearer and easier for everyone. Awesome Screenshot I teach IBDP Music in which students are required to produce detailed analysis of music in many different types of media formats as well as essays. This app helps capture the part of a music score they need and then mark up the exact area of concern for discussion. Awesome!
