My screencast tutorial for creating quizzes in Google Forms was created with Camtasia. I chose this educational task because in my time using LMS as a classroom teacher, I noticed many educators getting confused and frustrated with the process of creating interactive, digital quiz spaces separate from the LMS. Google Classroom has a seamless framework for attaching activities directly to assignments. I saw the need for a quick tutorial and this was the result.
My critique of CapCut was created using Camtasia and CapCut's browswer version of their AI video editing program. I have used this software as an option for students to create a more multi-media version of their own literary analysis. By generating scenes from a text that show elements of characterization to creating images from the descriptive language provided in the text, students get a hands-on way of interacting with the text in a fashion or method that they are familiar with. One of the educational values of video creation for students, especially in the ELA classroom, is they can still practice with literary elements like identifying plot structure and evaluating imagery without a "traditional" writing assignment. They can practice how to prompt AI to produce the videos and images they want while relying on the text for the important details.

One of the cons of CapCut as an AI video software is the prompts have to be specific and concise, otherwise the desired results may be hard to get. Within the classroom, it is still a convenient way to get students thinking outside of the box when it comes to creating their own literary analyses. It is an easy-to-use, accessible software that can help students master their ELA standards while also exposing them to new, more modern ways of exploring classic literature in today's world.
