TechSmith Talk: Extra support and a peek at new features

Posted August 26, 2020 by Benjamin Kahn Filed Under: News

TechSmith Relay has been an incredible resource for UP faculty as we’ve navigated distance education during the global pandemic. It’s combination of simplicity and powerful features have supported many of us as we leverage video to teach and engage. With that in mind I wanted to share some resources:

Extra live training available

TechSmith offers short webinar sessions that UP faculty may attend free of charge:

We have sessions geared toward brand new users, and also some deeper dives into advanced features as well. We even have slots open for a Knowmia Basics session tomorrow at 2PM EST. This would be perfect to share with anyone who needs some quick training ASAP.

What’s cooking with Knowmia

I recently had the opportunity to connect with TechSmith reps to share feedback and learn what’s coming up on their product roadmap. To summarize:

  • You will be able to record “Picture-in-picture” webcam on your screencasts using the desktop recorder
  • More accessibility features
  • “Groups” are being improved and renamed to “Collections” – eventually this will help to be able to share media between instructors more easily

You can check out a more in depth look at new features in this attached report:
