Build and Download Recording of Public Online Classes Temporarily Unavailable

WiZiQ is trying a new recording architecture which would allow you to play/ pause recording at any step and eventually even edit the recording. We have migrated all the free and paid public classes to this architecture. Hence, some of the classes over the next week would not be available for Build and Download for both presenters and attendees. We plan to bring the Download Recording Feature for these recordings back soon.

Meanwhile, please go ahead and view the new recordings and please let us know your feedback

Access Educational Resources on WiZiQ in the New Public Page

Now, all students, learners, educators, teachers, experts and parents can access all the publicly listed Educational Resources [namely Online Class, Online Tests, Online Content and Learning Requests] on a revamped Public Page on WiZiQ. The URL to access this page is http://www.wiziq.com/public/ You will see all the latest upload content here. We plan to bring an option to subscribe to email alerts and RSS feeds very soon. You will also see the latest publicly listed featured online classes, content and tests here again. We have tried to keep the listings slightly conversational. If you have a suggestion for wordings of any of the listings, then please do let us know. We are working on a couple of variations and might be changing the same soon.

For those, who want to access Online Classes and are wondering what happened to the Public Classes page, you can access them at http://www.wiziq.com/classes/

Keep 03 Recordings for Free, Forever

WiZiQ allowed free members to keep their recordings for a month, after which they expired. Even if you had conducted a good webinar or wanted to keep a recording forever, there was no way you could do it. Now there is.

Free members on WiZiQ can keep 03 recording of the classes they conduct on WiZiQ, forever. You can invite people to watch it and let these recordings be a testimonial of your teaching style. These recordings are not deleted till the time you delete them. The recordings will not be available even if you upgrade to premium membership. As a free member, if you want to discard a recording and record another upcoming online class, you can do so too. You can just delete a particular recording and then select "Record this Class" from More Settings while scheduling a class.

There is no limit at attendee end however. Students/ attendees can view and access ALL the class recordings they were invited to or they signed up for [as long as the teacher has not taken back the access or if the teacher did select the record class for attendees option]. They can also download the class recordings [if allowed by premium teachers who conduct the class].

With the release of this feature, WiZiQ becomes the only platform in the world which allows you to conduct a class with up to 500 attendees for up to 02 hours, and also keep 03 of your recordings, forever, for free.

Class Calendar is No Longer Available

"Class Calendar" was one of the features available to all WiZiQ members. It was the first link in the drop down sub-navigation for the Classes link [in horizontal navigation - after you sign in to WiZiQ]. This feature is no longer available. We have decided to remove this feature to make the navigation lighter and easier. With this change, the three options in the drop down sub-navigation for Classes, Tests and Content are consistent.

• The first link relates to creation [Schedule a Class, Create a Test, Upload Content]
• The second link relates to WiZiQ member assets [My Classes and Recordings, My Tests, My Content]
• The third link relates to Public Assets on WiZiQ [Public Classes, Free Online Tests, Educational Content]

We do plan to allow you export your class schedule to your web/ desktop calendars soon - something which most members have asked for.

This enhancement is in keeping with continued refinement of features available to both Free members and Premium members on WiZiQ. We plan to add and refine more features, over the coming month. We welcome and solicit feedback from all WiZiQ members. If you have an opinion about any of things we are changing or should be changing, please do let us know :)

Yes, you got that right.

WiZiQ, is now the only platform in the world that lets teachers, presenters, experts, workshop organizers, conference speakers and consultants to hold online classes or sessions with as many as 500 attendees - free of cost.

As of last week, you could conduct an online class with 50 attendees after signing up for free with WiZiQ. All it took was a valid email address. This limit of 50 attendees per class was already higher than other similar offerings in the market. And now, this limit becomes even more flexible. You can now have up to 500 attendees in your online class/ session/ conference. All you need to do is: register for free with WiZiQ>>schedule a class>>invite attendees and conduct the class. If it sounds simple, it is.

This enhancement is in keeping with continued addition and refinement of features available to both Free members and Premium members on WiZiQ. We plan to add and refine more features, over the coming month. So, keep watching this space :-)
