I really thought Jing was easy to use and a great way to make howto videos for educational purposes with ease. I love the "sun" idea, it gives the program novelty, and makes it very easy to use. I wish they gave you more time to make your videos, but I understand they need to make a buck too and charging for a premium service is the only way to make this application profitable.
Here is my video on Wix.com:
3 other apps I would use in classroom would be:
1. Cobocards.com -this website allows you to create digital flash cards with illustrations, etc. What an awesome learning tool.
2. Doink.com- this websites allows you to create custom animations. This would be a creative way for students to recreate a historical scene.
3. Storyjumper.com - this websites allows users to create their own stories using pictures, animations, etc.
I've never heard this app before. Seems really nice! I'll have to play with it sometimes soon. Now, I was just reading about the Oscar win and then clicked on your video. I thought for a second I was on the wrong page because of Natalie Portman's photo on your video :)
