I think that there is no real need of watching a tutorial of how it works since there are mini tutorials integrated in the software to help you in the beginning. As soon as you start using Snagit, you have different tips and explanations of the different features as you try to use them. I first downloaded the software and started to look at its feature without watching a tutorial before doing so. This could be an interesting way to evaluate oral production since students should not feel anxiety as much if they are talking alone in front of their computer and have the possibility of starting over again if ever they need to compared to the typical oral presentation in front of the entire class. They could try to find a video of interest to them, then decide on what they want to comment, and finally do a screen capture of the video with themselves narrating their comments and everything.
A third way to incorporate Snagit in the ESL classroom would be for students to do video reviews. For example, if a “weaker” students do not understand a notion that was seen in class, he or she could write an e-mail to the teacher, who could then send a video that explains the notion or a particular assignment better to the student. Another way to use Snagit in the classroom would be to help students with particular struggle areas they might encounter. This way, the teacher would be there to help answer their questions. The students would get in touch with the new grammar outside of class, and would do exercises to understand and practice the same grammar point in class. Through the screen captures, the teacher could make simple videos with narration explaining different grammar points to his or her students for example. A great way to incorporate the software in ESL teaching would be with flipped classrooms. It can be used for many different purposes. Snagit is an awesome tool when it comes to teaching in general, but in ESL teaching as well. Here are some examples of what you can do with this software: Then, once your capture is done, the Snagit Editor opens for you and let you modify your screen capture and save it or share it. If your press on Print Screen using Snagit, the software allows you to select the part of the screen you want to capture either with a photo or a video. As soon as the program is installed, you have a tool bar that opens on top of your computer screen which lets you get started with screen captures. Snagit is also linked to your Print Screen button which facilitates things for you since you only have to click on Print Screen to then select what you want to capture on your screen.
You can either create an account or connect with your Google account, which is great to save you some time. Snagit needs to be downloaded on your computer.
Īccording to Kirsten Buck, “Snagit is the best screen capture software on the market because it combines some of the best capturing and editing features in an easy-to-use program.” How does Snagit work? The software enables you to take pictures or videos of your screen and to do basic editing on your screen captures. Snagit is a screen capture software created by TechSmith.
