Screencastify is a screencasting extension for Google Chrome. It allows you to record your screen activity for creating tutorials, etc, and runs entirely in Chrome. As a teacher you can use ScreenCastify to create short video lessons to flip your instruction. You can have students use ScreenCastify to give a speech or performance, practice fluency, dub a video, explain their understanding, or to create tech help videos for classmates, parents, and teachers.
