Disable OneClick in Snagit 13 and Snagit 12 Turns out that there is a feature called OneClick in Snagit which prevents this SnagIt app from automatically closing. My version is Snagit 12, so, this is how you can fix this issue for Snagit 12 for earlier versions. Instead of pasting the link into a comment in a Google Doc, you can paste the feedback link into the private comment spot in Google Classroom.The support page of Tech Smith website gives this solution for different versions. Students can click on the link to view the video and hear your feedback. Paste (Control V) the link to the feedback recording into the comment. You can also right click and choose “Comment” from the menu. I use the keyboard shortcut Control Alt M.

In other words, if you take the time to change the sharing permissions on the folder then all of your Snagit recordings will be visible with the link. If the sharing permissions on the folder are changed, then any screenshots or recordings will take on the sharing permissions of the folder. Snagit Chrome extension screen recordings are automatically saved to the TechSmith folder. Change the viewing permissions on the TechSmith folder in Google Drive to anyone with the link can view. The student will not be able to view or listen to the video if it is private. This means that the video you created for the student is private. Cautionīy default items in your Google Drive are private. Choose the option for “Google Drive link.” The video was automatically saved to Google Drive. Name the screen recording once it has processed.Ĭlick on the blue button in the bottom right-hand corner. Keeping the recording short reduces processing time. It may take a minute for the recording to process, your bandwidth speed will matter. Stop SharingĪt the bottom of the screen is a blue button to “Stop sharing.” Click this to end the recording.Ī new window will pop up.

Keep the recording short, you can create multiple feedback comments if you wish. Since the screen is also being recorded you can highlight the particular element you are looking at. Choose the 2nd option which is the active window you were looking at. I usually only want to record the window with student work. The first option is to record your entire screen. Underneath “VIDEO” is an option for “Screen.” Click on “Screen” to start the screen recording. The top options allow you to do screenshots. Control Minus to zoom out and Control Zero to reset the zoom.Ĭlick on the Snagit Chrome extension up next to the Omnibox. If I really want to make sure the student can see what I am seeing I will zoom in on the screen. Almost like you are viewing a YouTube video. I try to resize the window so it is rectangular.

When you screen record you want to make sure the student can see what you are seeing.

You need to be using Google Chrome and have installed the Snagit Chrome extension. Best of all, Snagit saves the feedback to Google Drive. This allows students to see what you are talking about. Snagit records your voice along with what is on your screen. The Chrome extension is a great way to leave students audio and visual feedback.

I use both the desktop version and the free Chrome extension. One of my favorite EdTech tools is Snagit.

If you are not on a Chromebook, consider the full version Snagit ($30) that allows you to do the same thing but much much more powerful. You can accomplish this with other tools. While the directions below are specific to the now discontinued Snagit Chrome extension, the idea is still good. There are many screenshot and screen recording Chrome extensions in the Chrome webstore. Snagit is no longer offering the Chrome extension.
