Screen capture means recording what appears on a device screen, which could include going through a PowerPoint or Keynote presentation, drawing or marking up a document, or demonstrating the solving of a problem set.
NOTE: Your students may need access to a microphone and/or webcam if these are not already built into their device. They may also benefit from presentation, whiteboard, or markup tools for their screen capture.
