What are Paper Slide Videos?
These videos are one-take, no-editing involved.
This requires proper planning and practice before recording.
The use of a Paper Slide Outline that specifies the needed information on each slide makes the process a lot easier for students. Provide a planning sheet for students to complete before giving them their actual "slides".

How do I record the videos?
Before you record, and depending on the age of your students, you may find it helpful to assign "jobs" when completing paper slides in groups.
You will need: a narrator, videographer, and paper slider. All students should contribute to designing and creating the slides. To record the videos, just use the Camera app for iPhone or iPad. That way all the videos are saved to your camera roll.
Make sure you swipe to change the operation from "Photo" to "Video"

To view/share the videos:
You should make time to allow students to watch their creations as a class- they will be asking about them until you do! If you have a VGA adapter that allows you to project from your iPad to SmartBoard, that will be your easiest option for viewing the videos.
If you do not have an adapter, or if you are planning on sharing the videos with parents or other teachers, it's best that you upload the videos to your Google Drive, by downloading the Google Drive app on the same device you recorded with.
For directions on uploading files from an iPad/iPhone to Google Drive see this page.
