Screencasts & Tutorials


Screencasts are videos of things that happen on a desktop. Ms. Boylan, Ms. K, and other teachers will be creating screencasts to help keep track of all the cool things we'll be doing here. They'll be available for you if you ever forget the directions!

Tutorials are lessons on how to use something. Sometimes those will be screencasts, but sometimes those will be links to other websites that have better lessons than we can create.
