Ever wanted to do a video via your webcam, computer screen or both at the same time? Well, this is nothing new. People having been doing videos ever since the internet was invented (although not quite that far) and it has almost become common knowledge to know how to make one. But not everyone is familiar with the process, and although many do it, it can sometimes take a while before getting the hang of it and take a while do edit it. Ever since Screencasting was created, multiple online tools have surfaced, creating a design where videos can be made in the snap of a finger. And none come as close to being simple as Screencast-O-Matic. Often considered to be an easy to use program with a clean, intuitive user interface, Screencast-O-Matic is so easy to use it’s almost unbelievable. Out of all the webtools I have used so far, this one is by far the easiest one there is, as it only took me almost no time at all to figure it out and post my first video. It is considered to be in the top of screencasts programs, and I am going to briefly talk about my experience with it.

There is not much to say about this webtool, but I will go over what I found interesting to notice. If you watched the video I made previously, you can see that unlike regular screencasting videos made online, the frame can be adjusted and is mobile. Whenever I need to focus the video on a particular area of the screen, all I needed to do was drag it wherever I wanted. Upon entering the website (

Upon entering the website (https://screencast-o-matic.com/home), a short video shows you the basics of how to film. Before you start shooting, you have to download a screen recorder launcher. Afterward, you have a couple of options you can use before pressing the record button. You can choose your way of filming (screen, webcam or both), the size and quality of the video (depending on what your computer can run) and the microphone you want. Next, you just start shooting. You can pause and restart when you are ready and finally stop your video when you are done. Once your video is over, you have different ways in which you can upload it: you can upload it as a video file, on Screencast-O-Matic itself (which I have done) or upload it to your YouTube account if you have one.

This is about as far as it goes, at least for the free version. Add a maximum of 15 minutes of recording time available and that is about all you get with the free version, which can be sufficient enough to start off with. Since I could not buy the full version, I could not experience it. However, according to https://edshelf.com/tool/screencast-o-matic/, you can buy two different full versions: the Single-USe Pro recorder and the Site License Pro recorder. With the first version, you can have the absence of watermarks, editing tools, computer audio recordings, scripted recordings and new uploading areas like dropbox, google drive and Vimeo, which I think is a good advantage. The second version has all of the same advantages, except that it offers longer running times for videos made by the user. I found this tool to be easy to use. With all my prior knowledge about how to use a computer (which isn’t that much), I can safely say that anyone can learn this in no time, and although I did not use the webcam feature, I can imagine how it could be used in a classroom.

Since this tool is quite simple, this offers a lot of variety when it comes to using this in an English classroom. The way I see it, it can be used in two different ways: teacher-oriented or student oriented.

Doing a teacher-oriented activity with Screencast-O-Matic would involve something that would look like a flipped classroom activity. For example, let’s say the teacher wanted to do a unit on endangered species. The teacher could prepare the video in advance to have an introduction to the subject at home. In this particular instance. The teacher could make full use of the webcam and the screen. On the computer screen, the teacher could show images online of different animals to the students while filming himself talk and staring at the webcam. This way, not only are the students listening and watching pictures, but they also have the face of their teacher that gives a bit more humanity to the video and makes the students feel like there is a better connection with the teacher. The teacher could also use only the recording of the screen only to explain an online tutorial. Let’s say the teacher wanted to show the students how to create a youtube account. He could film himself doing it and present it during a lab class so everyone can see. This way, instead of risking students drifting off or not going on another site, they are already watching the screen, so the teacher won’t have to make sure that he has everybody’s attention.

On the other hand, Screencast-O-Matic could be used for student-oriented activities, which means that they are using the program themselves to do activities or projects. For example, in an elementary grade, a teacher could ask students to prepare a small skit of some kind that they will show to the classroom. By using the webcam feature only, they can do their skit, and since they can upload the video on Screencast-O-Matic directly, the teacher would have easy access to all the videos and not have to stash the videos on his computer. He could simply ask students to send him the link, and everything works out. As a future ESL teacher, I can see how this tool could have some potential, especially for the oral skills. The skit is an example, as students could take their time to figure their ideas out and practice without making as many mistakes as a live version of those skits. Another use could be in out loud reading. Say the teacher wanted to evaluate the oral pronunciation of students. He could send them a text online, ask them to record their voices while showing the text on the screen, and then have access to every student’s video and be able to evaluate each student while being able to listen to them more than once.

In short, Screencast-O-Matic is a great and simple tool, and it can be used very efficiently inside an ESL classroom. With a little bit of imagination, your lessons will never be the same.
