I don’t get good results when I talk and write at the same time, so I prefer to make “animated” presentations in Apple Keynote with all the text and images timed to appear when I want them to- then I can just record my voice right into the Keynote, export a video, and upload to Vimeo, YouTube, or Canvas. Take a step back, though, and know yourself before you try to be like Sal Khan. Recording your handwriting and speaking in real time is not for everybody– I’m left handed and have a hard time writing on digital screens because they pick up the touch from the side of my hand. Also, my handwriting is not always gorgeous, and I can produce better results when I type my presentation slides ahead of time. He demonstrates his process in this video.īefore you run out to buy all new tools or mimic Khan’s presentation style, let’s explore some different ways you can produce your own narrated videos in your own style. Sal Khan himself doesn’t use an iPad– he uses ordinary PC screen capture software, free sketching app SmoothDraw, and a Wacom tablet to produce the Khan Academy videos- probably because…Ī) those are the tools he had on hand, and If you think carefully about your needs, the way you like to work, and how you want to use the resulting videos, there are A LOT of ways to produce video lectures. (Try ClariSketch!) The good news is that you don’t need a special app or device to produce similar videos. The bad news is that Android does not yet have an equivalent app. He was looking for an Android tablet equivalent to ShowMe, the iPad app that lets you write freehand, record your voice, and post videos online similar to the familiar Khan style. The Android app is a free download on Google Play, and all courses are free.A faculty recently approached me asking how he could produce Khan Academy – style video lessons.
It was one of Google’s partners in the summer Google Camp project designed to bring science lessons to kids. The Academy offers more than 10,000 video tutorials in a wide range of subjects, from introductions to advanced high school level and beyond.
Today Khan Academy is releasing our first Android app along with a redesigned iPhone app! We believe strongly that unlocking the potential for anyone, anywhere to learn on 2B+ smartphones worldwide is just getting started. We know you love using Khan Academy more and more on your phones: in fact, over 30% of our sessions are now on mobile devices. “A free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere.” This mission inspires us day in, day out, and we’ve seen over 30M students sign up on Khan Academy to learn almost anything for free. The non-profit launched an iPad app way back in 2012, and has now finally done the same for Android. One of the best things about the Internet is the access it provides to free educational resources, and the Google-backed Khan Academy is one of the best examples.
