In St. Louis, to my knowledge we do not have a makerspace as part of a

diffferent?

Personally, I would put soldering irons in phase 2, as they really do require
training to use. Without a pretty decent skillset, you can burn through a lot
of led strips, etc.

Hi everyone
Thanks for raising this question and for the interesting responses. Any
good sources for doing the same with e-books? Not merely mass-market

Hello All,
A colleague and I were recently asked to help create a "tool library for
makerspaces" for a local state library consortia. The idea being they would
lend out kits such as Arduino's with breadboards to libraries that are
thinking of setting up some kind of makerspace but unsure where to

It really depends on what you want to do and how complicated you want to get.
I've used Camtasia, SnagIt, and Adobe Captivate, and they're all good for what
they do, but my personal favorite and go-to program is Captivate. The learning
curve is a little higher, but it's very powerful. It separat
I've used both Camtasia and SnagIt and I like both well enough. SnagIt is
cheap and dead simple for the screen capturing process; not a lot of bells
and whistles but I don't need / want those. I've also used a lot of video
editing tools (since SnagIt doesn't have much itself) and these days mostly
Hi Mary,
I haven't used it for screen casting usability testing (yet), but I was going
to use Quicktime packaged with OS X. It can be used for screen recording.

I¹ve used Silverback & Camtasia. Silverback is pretty dead simple and nice
and cheap. Camtasia needs a bit more configuration, but it works just as
well.
The one issue that I did not expect to run into using Silverback is how
many users (students, especially, oddly enough) were unfamiliar with usi
Hi All,
Sorry if this has been discussed before. (I'm new to the list.) But, has
anyone conducted usability studies using screencast software? If so, what
software works well? (Morae is too pricey; I'm thinking along the lines of
Camtasia, Silverback, etc.)
Also, do you have any anecdotal ad
Hi Adam,
