Jessica, thanks for posting the links to the sources. I just need to see a screenshot of the blogs you found so I can tell you got them into your Google reader correctly. To do this on a Mac, hold down shift + apple key + 4. It makes a cross hairs, which you drag over the part of your screen you want to capture. Let go, and the picture shows up on your desktop for you to email to me. On a PC, it's a little more tricky because PC machines aren't always the same and some do things differently than others. But for most PCs, do this:
ReplyDelete1. Press the "Print Screen" button. (Next to the NumLk [Number Lock])
2. Paste the picture into Word or Paint and save it.
Knowing how to do this is simple once you have learned how, and it can be very useful as a teacher for quickly taking a picture of what you want your students to do or see. I use it all the time to show something on my computer to help a student see where they are supposed to click, or how something is supposed to look.
I figured out how to copy the screen, but how do I insert it? I tried to go and insert it under the hyperlink, but it won't accept any of the formats that I am able to save it as. I'm copying it into Word, but would it help to save it as a jpg file somewhere? If so, where can I do that?
ReplyDeleteNevermind - Stupid question. :)
