| I put the finishing touches on the video. I thought the scrolling I put in was a little too jarring so I added a charming little upside down Roger Williams to lead the way. |

| Activity Summary | Camtasia Work. |
| Notes |
| I had a brief conversation with B. about what additional parts of the results I needed to point out. She added media type. I also moved some things around and decided to get rid of the arrows. It was too much on the page! I replaced them with highlights. One thing B. has been emphasizing with me is the importance of simplicity in explaination. Although the arrows made whatever I was pointing out very obvious, they cluttered the screen. |

| Activity Summary | Camtasia Work. |
| Notes |
| I started adding call-outs to explain different parts of the results page. I put in a label- for example "clicking on the image of the cover will take you to a page with the table of contents, reviews, and other information, if available" and then I put in arrows to point out what I was talking about. I've decided to use a different color for each point I make. |

| Activity Summary | Camtasia Work. |
| Notes |
| I began a new video, per B.'s and my plans. This one is an introduction to the results page of the consortium's catalog. I started off by taking video of the process of getting results on the site. I will be labelling different parts of the site as well, so I made a mascot, Super Roger Williams, similar to Super Mario. I think it's cute, but I'm not exactly sure how entertaining everyone else will find it... |

| Activity Summary | Working on Camtasia and meeting with B. about Camtasia. |
| Notes |
| After finalizing my thoughts on where the Camtasia video should go, I met with B. to talk about how we were going to add the videos. We discussed content, visual issues, and a little bit about the appearance of the tutorial itself. One interesting thing that came up was the idea that this is definitely a teaching experience, only it's one where the student may be someone you never see or even meet or hear about. There's a method, a pedagogy (andragogy?) involved, that B. certainly (obviously!) has a better handle on than I do. |
