Isn't it frustrating when you are working with students solving math or science problems and they have the same questions, so you're going through the same example solution every five minutes? Or have you been thinking of flipping your classroom were students work through material ahead of time and you spend the time in class discussing applications or you simply want to start your own version of Khan Academy that has the solutions to the problems you've assigned? Well TechSmith (the creators of the highly acclaimed programs SnagIt, Camtasia, and Jing - I really like their stuff!) has released a new ipad app called ScreenChomp. Here is there description:
ScreenChomp is a digital whiteboard that users can write and draw on with the touch of a finger. You can draw using twelve different pen colors. All activity on ScreenChomp can be easily recorded and then if you want, edited through Camtasia for Mac or Camtasia Studio. The videos produced in ScreenChomp can be downloaded as MP4 files, making them easy to share on ScreenChomp.com, Facebook, YouTube, iTunes, Blackboard and other video hosting platforms.
Why would you use a recordable whiteboard? Well, ScreenChomp lets you jot down your ideas and easily share them with everyone or a few select people. It's a helpful app for everyone, but developed with teachers and students in mind. Plus, the price is right - ScreenChomp is free!

Have fun with it.
