Would you agree or disagree that Jing screen captures might be the “ultimate realization” of the Web 2.0 medium? Why?
Hmmmm . . . Ultimate? I don’t know about ultimate but I think Jing may be close. I absolutely loved using this tool. The possibilities for interaction and collaboration appear endless. I am particularly intrigued with the use of Jing as our school division moves to a new reporting system called Power School. I can see schools using Jing to show parents how to access information using Power School. Having this access will be a very new concept – especially for the elementary population.
Students would love Jing for two reasons: it is easy and quick to use. Add a back channel and we just have the ultimate on our hands!!!
