I got to see AVAnnotate in Puerto Rico last week. It's an incredible tool! Learn more at the bi-weekly conversations.
Using AV in class? AVAnnotate is hosting bi-weekly conversations about using AV in class. The first session (1.21 at 2pm CT) is working with AV archives: links, IIIF manifests, transcriptions, basic tags, structuring assignments. RSVP for the Zoom link:
