How to create a screen capture:

How do I screen capture on a Mac OS? <essential skill for any educator creating learning materials>
reference: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201361Links to an external site.

- - - - I most often use the option to select the portion of the screen to capture "shift", "command", and "4" keystrokes
        
        The capture file is most often saved to your Mac OS desktop, so you will have to navigate to upload it as your assignment.

How do I screen capture on a Windows OS? <essential skill for any educator creating learning materials> Reference: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/use-snipping-tool-to-capture-screenshots-00246869-1843-655f-f220-97299b865f6bLinks to an external site.

- - - - Select Start, search for "snipping tool", then select "Snipping Tool" from the results to open the application.
        
        Within the Snipping Tool, I most often change the mode to rectangular snip so I can draw a box to select the area I wish to capture.

When you have finished the assignment and have your screen capture completed, click the red "Start Assignment button. Progress through the file upload submission process to complete this assignment.
