Hi group,

Freerice.com is an excellent web site, but the easiest level is still too
difficult for many students. I created this screencast as a way to help students
-- young and old -- experience a higher degree of success with the easier levels
of Freerice.

You can see the screencast on YouTube at

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3pOWrBTS_A

You can download several version of this screencast in a ZIP file. One of
these versions runs well on older Macintosh computers -- as far back as 1994.
The other is for viewing on the iPod and iPhone.

I've uploaded the ZIP file to the Internet Archive. You can download it
from this link. http://tinyurl.com/5zw7wt

If there are others on this list wanting to create Freerice
screencasts, thanks for sending me an email off-list. I can coach you on the
process for doing so. A great way of getting into screencasting is to use
CamStudio, the free screencasting program for Windows.
