This URL links to an example of using Jing to capture and share teacher suggestions to a student on his writing. Jing is a free screen capture tool where you can record audio over a video screen in five minutes or less, http://www.jingproject.com/. This example shows a secondary teacher commenting on the sources, thesis statement, and suggestions to improve an essay a student submitted in a blog format. While this example critiques a student blog, the same procedure can be used to comment on an essay written in MS Word. Notice the background music and how it contributes to the effectiveness of the commentary? Teachers and students have access to free sound clips at http://www.soundzabound.com.
