Abstract:

In a globalized environment in which the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) is massive in teaching, audiovisual information is increasingly viewed by students. In this enviroment videos can provide engaging and student-centered learning experiences.

This article summarizes the experiences of two years of integration in the learning practice of students-created screencasts in the Management Information Systems subject, which is scheduled in the first course of the Degree in Business Management of the University of the Basque Country.

The article aims to transmit the benefits of screencasting in general and specifically when they are created, recorded and edited, by the students themselves. It analyzes different software tools available for the screencasting generation, as well as the experience of integrating and putting into practice in the teaching planning educative screencasts designed by the own students.
