Screen Capturing and Recording

Capturing screen content might be useful for a variety of purposes and applications including:

  • Making a screenshot of content you want to share with colleagues
  • Creating a tutorial video for community members
  • Creating content for flipped-classroom instruction
  • Sending a screenshot or screen recording of error messages to Tech
  • And the list goes on-and-on!
