Have you ever wanted to screencast your work? This is especially helpful when trying to teach someone long distance. You want to write things and talk them through it, but if they are not right there with you, it can be tricky to clearly capture everything. I ran across this neat iPad app called Educreations. Their homepage says:  Teach what you know. Learn what you don’t. Create and share amazing video lessons with your iPad or browser.

I haven’t played around with it much, but what I have seen looks amazing. You can see all of their math videos at http://www.educreations.com/browse/mathematics/. I am a TA for calculus 1 this semester, so I found the calculus videos quite interesting. It is helpful to see how other folks explain concepts.

Share your favorite discoveries on Educreation with us. Have you found other software that you like for creating screencasts?
