Tech Colleagues,

Barry Burkett's instructions on how to upload videos to Google -- in  
captured screen slides -- will now be found on the ALE Wiki at

http://wiki.literacytent.org/index.php/Google_videos

Does anyone -- including Barry -- have tips for making digital videos  
of teaching?  Barry, it looks like you do it by yourself.  Do you  
just set up a camera on a tripod and turn on the camera?  What tips  
do people have about capturing teacher and student voices in a  
classroom -- how to best mic the class?  If a teacher has someone  
else to do the filming, what tips do you have?

Barry has given us some tips on editing.  Anyone else have editing tips?

I wonder if there is enough interest from teachers out there to set  
up a page on the ALE Wiki on classroom video recording.  If you are  
making videos of your (or other adult educators') teaching, let me  
know.  If there is enough interest, I'll set up the ALE Wiki page and  
let you know.
