Folks, a tremendous peer-to-peer learning opportunity is on the horizon. Joining us from Emerson College in the heart of Boston, Journalism Professor Paul Niwa hosts an exclusive webinar with SnapStream on Wednesday, January 26.

Professor Niwa, a longtime SnapStream user and pro, will share his best insights on the academic use of television search technology. Niwa teaches graduate-level journalism courses at Emerson, where he relies on SnapStream to find interesting TV content and create clips for lectures. Emerson students also have full lab access to SnapStream to conduct their own content analysis and broadcast research.

If you work in some capacity of higher education (or K-12), you’re probably wondering:

• How does TV search work?
• Why is it especially useful for studying broadcast journalism?
• How did Emerson College analyze TV content in the past?
• What are the best practices and research methods?

You’ll glean the answers to all of these curious questions. And you’ll come to understand how core teaching styles have changed as a result of embracing digital recording and TV search appliances.
