During this pandemic, many teachers have turned to video recording to aid in their online instruction. From recording directions for activities to friendly messages to send to students, I think teachers enjoy having this as a tool. I personally used video recording a ton when I was IN the classroom. Especially when we were doing projects, it was nice to record myself going over the directions and rubric, that way students could re-watch as needed. It also was easier to get absent students up to speed. In March, one of our teachers shared that Screencastify was offering their premium version free for teachers through at least April 30th. I love Screencastify because of it's Google Drive integration. However, when it expires, you'll be stuck at a 5-minute per video limit. I am sure there are a lot of teachers who will continue to use screencasting in their instruction. Lucky for us, Loom, very similar to Screencastify, is offering its premium version, Loom Pro, free for teachers and students FOR-EV-ER. That's right! Free for life! Click here to learn more about it. I have used Loom, and while it doesn't have the Google Drive integration, it's easy to use and it has great editing tools!
