LessonCast is a place where teachers will be able to share and find exemplars of the "what, why, and how of effective teaching." In 2 ½ minutes or less, lessoncasts focus on a single lesson idea or management strategy.
LessonCast content is created by teachers with ideas they want to share. Contributors can use built-in screen capture technology to record what is being displayed on their computer's screen (it can be a presentation, documents, images, web cam, etc) and publish their lessoncast. Contributors may also supplement and support their lessoncasts with downloadable resources.
Lessoncasts are not meant to be lesson plans. They should be short "how-to" pieces designed to support and inspire teachers.
Visitors to LessonCast may view the lessoncasts and download the related materials for free. The goal of LessonCast is to create a mentoring environment where experienced teachers share their knowledge and expertise with colleagues looking for new ideas or methods that are classroom-tested.
LessonCast membership is open only to educators who can then download materials and vote, tag, and share lessoncasts. The LessonCast community collectively determines which ideas are the most effective.
