I am intrigued with learning visually online. I ran across a post two days ago on Visual Thinking on Squidoo that prompted the post about Squidoo, (I’ll have to go back to the content of that post, as I got distracted by the the application itself).
In preparing for a presentation on some of the newer collaborative browser-based Web 2.0 tools that I am making next week for the New England Adobe Users Group (NEAUG), I discovered this new visually oriented tool. After creating a couple of sketches, it was really obvious to me that Sketchcast is a very cool tool and very simple to use, even if one has no drawing talent.
Sketchcast calls itself the newest iteration of blogs. But I wonder about the practicality of its use with a website as well as how it might be used as an instructional tool. Towards what end this sketchcasting lend itself? What are its inherent benefits? this needs some more thought.
