FreeScreencast.com aim to make screencasting easy - at least on the technical side. Their tools provides the features both you and your learners need:

• Very easy to use Screencast Recorder, for producing Screencasts.
• The ability to upload the resulting Screencast to "share with the world" (Scarry for some). Or it can just be saved as a .FLV file locally... "that's right, you can just keep what you produce if you want to". ('Phew', I can hear many saying)

If you do upload the screencasts however...

• The ability to embed uploaded Screencasts in your blog, website or eAssessment Portfolio/eRARPA Portfolio/ePDP Portfolio. Let FreeScreencast do the hosting your Screencast for you.
