ITC – Getting Started with Camtasia and Snagit: Using Video to Engage Students

Unlock the full potential of your college's free Camtasia and Snagit access!

Join us for an interactive virtual session designed for both new and experienced users. We will walk you through the essential features and the latest updates in both Camtasia (for video creation/editing) and Snagit (for quick image/screen capture) to immediately enhance your teaching. The newest Audiate feature for editing and exporting a closed caption file will also be demonstrated.

This session will focus on practical, high-impact techniques that help you effectively engage students online and in person, and support Regular and Substantive Interaction (RSI):

• Direct Instruction: Learn how to create concise tutorial videos (using tools like Camtasia Rev) for assignments and complex concepts, providing direct instruction at scale.
• Assessment and Feedback: Discover how the video editing capability in Camtasia offers a unique advantage for providing high-quality, personalized feedback that can be refined before sharing with students.
• Support Student Success: Use Snagit to quickly capture and annotate visuals, providing rapid visual support to help connect with students in place of lengthy written explanations.

There will be opportunities for Q&A during and after the workshop.

Please note that this training is limited to ARC employees.
