screencast-o-matic. I tried to launch it today and it took a long time, if it is taking too long simply download the app and try it that way. The other resource I shared with the students was the simple recorder in your collection of Smart Tools. The quickest way to find your recorder is through Spotlight. Launch the recorder, set up your desktop screen as you want it to look, and hit the red button to start recording. Once you are finished press the blue square button. Both options provide quick and simple ways to record your work.
