A screencast is a video of anything that was on your screen when you created it: Web page, picture, moving image, etc.

If your cursor was on-screen, the screencast has it. You can use it to highlight anything on the screen.

If you have an external microphone plugged in, you can narrate whatever is on screen.

A screencast is great for teaching. For over 200 sample screencasts, go here.
