For me, camtasia just got too expensive which sent me to Screencatisfy for the past several years now

I agree, and unfortunately it seems as is all software is going this direction

I haven't watched any of these since TWD ended, but reading your review put a smile on my face again. I actually missed your reviews about this one's great show really tanked over the years. Still won't watch any of these though 😀

One of my favorite math problems: If you have two shuffled decks and reveal one card from each at the same time, what's the probability you're going to flip the exact same card at least once?

Want to use ChatGPT to make cartoon image?. Here's YouTube tutorial I found. He lists different styles it can recreate. Check out different versions of myself I made as cartoon styles. The takeaway for image generation is detailed prompts. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lyJ0... #edtech #ISTELive #edtech

Game Show Guy blast from the past!!!! Here I am back in 1996 on a short lived game called "No Relation" hosted by Mike Rowe. I'd give back the trip to Mexico we won to have that hair again! #gameshow #edusky #edtech youtu.be/AGRprPXABvg

Game Show fun fact.... Anthony Pratt and his wife in England created the game Clue in 1944, as a way to pass the time during air raid drills during WWII.

Years ago I worked with Coach Ben on an activity for young Ss to learn Chromebook skills called “Chromie the Chromebook” & now I have Mr. Potato Head. Ss can learn copying & pasting plus skills such as resizing, rotating, flipping & color correction #edusky #edtech docs.google.com/presentation...

Thanks Wes! Yes, I have "tried" a little coding for making my newest game "Spot It". The python code takes 57 images and populates them into a PowerPoint of 8 images per slide for 57 slides. It was a bit over my head and needed some help from Computer Science students :)

Well, that's it...another year in for the books with 24 of them here in Rocklin. Nothing like the time machine of past staff IDs to make you feel old. But still looking to what the next school year will bring

Jeopardy fun fact... Not sure if you've ever hit writer's block when writing questions for a quiz or text, but the Jeopardy writers have to come up with early 14,000 clues each season #gameshows #edusky #edtech

Here's another of my games that can easily put together for some end of the year fun. It is an "Apples to Apples" template where you can put your own content or fun terms... its totally customizable. I have PPT and GSlides versions here: drive.google.com/file/d/1Aqjz... #edtech #edusky

For my end of the year review, I played one of my newer games "Battleship". It was an absolute blast! Very different from traditional Kahoot or Jeopardy style game. Here's my tutorial www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZ1a... if you interested in the template, shoot me a DM for the link #edtech #edusky

Looking for a fun game for your students with NO EDUCATIONAL PRIOR KNOWLEDGE REQUIRED? Well, try my Candy Quiz! I put them in teams of 2-3 and see which ones can guess 'em all. Even allow them to cheat/trade with other teams. docs.google.com/presentation... #edusky #edtech

Anyone use the "Which One Doesn't Belong" challenges? I did a few years ago as fun mini warm up games for my agendas. But noticed the site wodb.ca doesn't work anymore. I've found quite a few other sites that focus on math looking for other non-math examples. #edusky #edtech

Ryan O'Donnell @creativeedtech.bsky.social · 08/05/2025

I find this time of year, the end of term finals, AP exams, etc as the best time to dive into a fun review game. My YouTube channel has all tutorials for all my games to try Price is Right, Family Feud, Let's Make a Deal are some of the popular #edtech #edusky www.youtube.com/@TheGameShow...

Here are three random name pickers for next time you need this for a game or other lesson. Wheel of Names seems to be the most popular but I like Lucky Draw, as it has the least number of ads #edusky pinkylam.me/playground/r... wheelofnames.com edushare.ing/r2

A little look into the Game Show Guy's DNA. Here is my mother back in 1975 spinning the wheel on Wheel of Fortune. She didn't win the big money, but a year supply of chocolate bon bons and new orange linoleum flooring for the house was a pretty sweet victory for the 70's #edusky
