Math Posts: 281 Location: Henry Clay | I video taped a lesson yesterday for next week. I used a normal microphone with the document camera which was hooked up to my VCR with the RCA plugs. (Like the announcements you must turn the tv Way Up to hear the tape.) We will see how the students like it. Just another way to use the technology:> | ||

Math Posts: 281 Location: Henry Clay | I am interested in the computer part. Do you have to have any special hardware or software to convert to computer video format? Bryson | ||

Exactly what kind of microphone did you use for your lesson? I have what I thought was a normal mic (it came with a computer program I have at home), but it is the wrong connection for my document camera. | |||

Math Posts: 281 Location: Henry Clay | My students enjoyed to video taped lesson. For the microphone I got a 10 dollar one at best buy. My computer mic even with an adapter would not work. There was a lot of noise in the background since my mic was such a cheap one. | ||

I successfully taped my lesson. Our library had exactly the mic I needed. I am just replaying using the projector and the sound is fine. This is so cool. | |||
