Jing Image - Cool Tool - Love It!

Jing is a very handy tool which I could use for so many of the classes that I teach - Accounting - especially when I have a substitute.  For Multimedia to teach the new lessons such as my example here for Effective PowerPoint Presentations.  I could also use it in Personal Finance when I teach the online banking software lesson.
Step 1: Effective PowerPoint Presentations
The image is saved to Screencast.  The benefits of Screencast is that you can also share your image with others using the assigned URL.  So if someone was absent - I could send them the link or I could put the link on my webpage so others could access it.

Learning Outcomes:
1.  The file type that comes out of Jing screen capture is a PNG file. PNG is ideal because when the file is compressed, it has the same exact quality as an uncompressed image which means the PNG files look exactly like the screen you captured.
2.  Jing saves images in Jing History
3. Jing history is accessed by hovering over the sun icon and clicking the history button.
4.  I don't fully understand the question to me is seems like it places a copy in the history on your computer.
5. Use the click on Insert Image icon in the tool bar of the blog and copy the Jing Image URL and save.
6. You can publish using Screencast.
7. You can share with others via the URL link or you could put the link on Diingo!
