Amy,
Wow this is awesome. I like the way you captured it and presented it to. How did you do that? This method will really help in the application process of the learning that will take place.
I have a mac, so I used the “screenshot” function. So on a mac, you capture the entire screen with apple+shift+3 or can select part of a screen with apple+shift+4. The image you capture just automatically goes to your desktop then.
I’m not super familiar with windows, but you use the print screen button and then paste it into something like paint. I found a “how to” for windows for you that will hopefully be more useful than my vague windows knowledge if you’re interested in trying it out! http://graphicssoft.about.com/cs/general/ht/winscreenshot.htm
Wow! Neat idea, Amy. Add digital camera or digital video camera (Flip video cameras are inexpensive) and you could freeze the stretch as an image and then superimpose the protractor to measure it.
By the way, Jing (available for free at jingproject.com) lets users capture images as well as short screencasts.
