Tegrity for Mac Classrooms

We are starting our sixth year of classroom capture via Tegrity. Classroom capture allows instructors to record classroom content for students to review later - after class or when studying for exams. It has been demonstrated, many times, to show it can help a student cover more material with better retention in a class. After five years, with around 50% of our undergraduate faculty using it for nearly 100% of their courses, we almost take it for granted. It is hard to believe that many schools don't have it at all, or are "just testing it".

This summer a combination of Tegrity software update and additional hardware have allowed for our Macintosh classrooms to finally enjoy the full classroom capture experience that has been available for Windows Classrooms for the last few years.

If you would like more information on Tegrity or how it might be useful to you in your classes, please contact the HelpDesk to request training or a demonstration.
