Over the next few months I’ll be rolling out a series of screencasts for use in my online journalism classes. I hope these allow students to learn at their own pace and help the students who are absent on the days we cover the material. I hope others outside of my classroom also find them useful.

These are “working drafts.” I will lay down more scripted audio tracks later and add elements that I may have missed.

I welcome responses or suggestions for future screen casts.
