ScreenChomp is a free little app that does one thing very well: provides for on screen drawing and voice recording and cloud sharing. It is free, from one of the big names in video capture. ScreenChomp allows for immediate finger drawing with or without a narration. This makes is a great tool for explaining and demonstrating. The finished image can then be published in another app, or published as a mini-video.
A background image can be imported to the drawing which makes it very effective for explaining and annotating a screen capture or other image. In the image to the right, you can see annotations that have been written on the map. These can be erased and modified without affecting the background image. So one can in effect draw to one's heart's content on the world map until it is in the best version.
The main attribute of ScreenChomp is simplicity: it does a relatively unsophisticated task reliably and quickly. It has obvious use by teachers and by students.
