Using Videos in Technology Training – a Webinar

Posted on November 13th, 2009 by smoreland

Ever since we discovered Jing! here at NEKLS, we’ve incorporated videos in our training. For example, at a Final Friday Web site Work Day in the NEKLS Lab, we showed a video Liz had created while everyone followed along at their workstations. We could stop the video and re-start it as needed. We also have several tutorial videos and ‘overview’ videos of the NExpress OPAC that some libraries have posted to the front page of their Web site.

Wouldn’t it be great if complicated technology concepts were explained in a simple way that’s easy to understand? Imagine how something like this could assist you in training sessions for patrons or staff. Well look no further, Common Craft creates explanatory videos “In Plain English” that cover topics like green, money, society and technology.

In this free webinar, Stephanie Gerding from TechSoup for Libraries will interview Lee LeFever, from Common Craft to learn more about their videos and how they are created. We will also hear how librarians are using these videos to support the needs of their community.
Hope to see you there,
Stephanie
