I use a combination of transcription and translation to get video transcripts between English and French, but for recorded videos, NOT livestream.

I've heard about and maybe tested the ?option awhile ago. It wasn't stellar but it might have gotten better?

Cheers,

Agree this is a very hard problem that we probably don't have a solution yet, for auto transcription of English, recently I heard of this company () but I've not used them before. hope this helps!

Hi all,

Some of the threads I’ve been reading took my breath away with awe, and I’m so grateful that each person shares in their unique personal way, thanks for the richness of sharing.

Long story short: I run a not for profit structure and everything is underway to redevelop our face to face training so it can be accessed virtually in 1 month.?

Can you recommend a video platform (like Zoom) which automatically translates what a presenter says into different languages so non-English speakers can follow content?

I’m presuming that a translation would use AI and produces subtitles...

If you have some experience of using a tool like this, would you be willing to write in 1 or 2 phrases the pros and cons as you see them?

And what happens in breakout rooms? Can people still use translation to understand each other in small groups?

Warm regards,

Louise

Hi Kevon,

Re Toasty:

I’ve got a fun activity that I often run at the beginning and end of a virtual session to gauge how people are feeling (and how feelings have shifted over the course of the virtual session). It’s based on toast so I thought I should tell you about it:

I hate using other people’s ideas without giving credit but I don’t know the actual origin of it. Maybe someone else in the group will know.

Best wishes

Hi all, let me quickly introduce myself. I'm Kevon and I run an interactive video conf platform called Toasty ( designed for facilitation & engagement.

We want to make it very easy for any meeting facilitator to engage their audience without juggling between different platforms, and so we have a series of engagement activities that the host can grab, customize, and use to drive conversations and collaborations.

Recently we've added some Liberating Structures templates to the platform, and what I want to seek help is for experienced facilitators to take a look and give feedback on how we can improve the set up of those templates.

I'd appreciate it so much if we can hear your insights!

Here are the steps for anyone interested:
1. Go to?and click the top right orange button
2. Sign up for a free trial account
3. Create a new session, pick a Liberating Structure template
4. Doing so will populate the structure using different "Toasty activities" - this is the interactions list that you can use to engage the audience during the live session
5. If you can, use another computer (or open another tab) to join as a participant and test run it
6. By now you should have tons of feedback! I'd love to hear them.

Thanks a lot,
Kevon

Kevon,

I tried out Toasty, and really like the ability to quickly pull in the templated activities. However, it's important for me to walk away with a visual summary of what everyone says. Can it do that?

Hi Michaela,

Thanks for sharing with me!?Currently our design is for a single session of meeting/workshop so each one holds up to 25 pax, we haven't gotten to design around larger sessions and letting people hop around yet. Some people do run a few sessions at the same time, though def agree it is not as good of an experience.

This is the type of feedback I'd love to hear - def keen to explore whether Toasty is useful in larger settings too. Are you thinking about Open Space?


Thanks,
Kevon
