Computer users may encounter situations in which they can best express a computer-related problem or solution by showing the audience a graphic or video representation of what is displayed on a computer screen. For example, if you wanted to show how to copy files from an external storage device to a computer, it could be helpful for the audience to see what to click and the response to clicking. Even if your tutorial is not computer based, explore the Internet and find a free or low-cost tool (i.e., software, application) that can be used to create video or graphic screen captures that would be appropriate for describing an aspect of a tutorial. The screen capture tool's features may include selecting only a portion of the screen to copy, adding audio to video captures, or enhancing images through spotlight or magnify options.
