IPod Touch 4G Video For this assignment, I had to create a YouTube video demonstrating how to do any physical skill. I decided to create a YouTube video on how to stack cups. To do this, I used my IPod Touch 4G. I selected the camcorder and recorded the video. I then plugged my IPod into my computer and synced my IPod. I then logged onto my YouTube account and clicked "upload." I selected the video I wanted to use and then uploaded it. After uploading the video, I clicked on "share." I then clicked on "embed" and made sure to use the old embed code. After copying the old embed code, I logged onto my Wikispaces account. I went to my Wikispace page, and clicked "edit." I then clicked on "widget" and clicked "other html." I then pasted the embed code and clicked "save." This uploaded my YouTube video onto my Wikispace account. I made sure to save what I edited on my Wikispace page.

PowerPoint II I had to narrate PowerPoint I using Profcast. To make sure that my voice was loud enough when recording, I rented out a headset. When opening Profcast, I first went to "preferences" to make sure that the program read my headset. Then, I dragged my PowerPoint into the program and began recording. When done recording, I saved my Profcast as a .mov. I then signed into my YouTube account and uploaded my PowerPoint. After signing into Wikispaces, I went to "edit my page" and clicked on "widget." I then clicked "other html." I pasted the old embed code, and clicked save. By doing this, I successfully uploaded my narrated PowerPoint presentation onto Wikispaces. media type="custom" key="10823783"

I adjusted the duration of each picture by clicking on the icon in the bottom left hand corner of the picture. After I finished doing this, I clicked on the microphone and narrated my presentation. I then used the "T" icon to create a title and a scrolling reference page. After I completed my presentation, I clicked on "share" and exported it. I was then able to upload my video onto YouTube.
