MovieMaker allows you to capture the file directly onto the computer, which makes it a one step process. I then put the entire file on our server for them to download and capture their individual video (this is very easy to do in Moviemaker). Their task is to create a movie of their performance and then a second dubbed movie with corrections using the Narration feature of Moviemaker. We even had a project where they dubbed over each other's movies (boys using girls performances and vice versa). This was similar to the credit card identity theft commercials on TV. They really enjoyed that one. They have to listen to their peformance a couple of times in order to do the voice over. It really makes them responsible for listening to it and making corrections.

I watch it when I evaluate each performance, and give the comments to each student on a grading sheet. The whole procedure, videotaping and watching for evaluation, takes lots of time. But students don't read comments carefully in many cases. So, I've decided to have them self-comment on the performance. For this purpose, I want to have the recorded performance available to students right after their performance (within a day or so). I usually use a digicam for recording, and download the files and compress them with i2DVD (I forget the exact name) on Mac. But it also takes time. Is there any way I can do more quickly. Perhaps recording the performance with a webcom and directly upload it on a server ? Any information for hardware/software would be appreciated. (I am thinking for PC-W2000). Thank you.

This software allows you to manage desktops as well as copy software out to the desktop (in effect Ghost). We have used it to copy the menu bar out to all the machines in a lab. -Karen -----Original Message----- From: Language Learning and Technology International Information Forum [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of LLTI-Editor Sent: Monday, October 25, 2004 1:09 PM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: #7648.15 Ghosting an OS X lab (!) --- Forwarded Message from waltje <[log in to unmask]> --- >Date: Fri, 22 Oct 2004 11:05:49 -0400 >From: waltje <[log in to unmask]> >Reply-To: waltje <[log in to unmask]> >To: Language Learning and Technology International Information Forum <[log in to unmask]> >Subject: Re: Ghosting an OS X lab (!) >In-Reply-To: <[log in to unmask]> >References: <[log in to unmask]> Hello colleagues everywhere: Thank you for your numerous responses concerning my last enquiry about OS X "ghosting." Carbon Copy Cloner, NetRestore, and Radmind where the applications people pointed out to me. Too many responses, y'all know who wrote, and I thank you cordially. Once again I notice how great this list is. You'll probably hear from me again when we go on break in December and I can start tinkering in the labs without interruptions. Bye for now, I'll pester you when I get stuck, okay?

I just joined the list. The foreign language department at my school is interested in purchasing recording equipment for student use. The foreign language teachers are interested in purchasing equipment that will produce high-quality recordings of students' readings. What we have now results in garbled tapes and lots of background noise. I'd love to hear about what folks are using out there and what works well. Thanks in advance!
