Alzheimer Association Materials Grant
Technology-Content Team (Mary, Scarlett, Boyd, Louise) Meeting
24 October 2005 1
I. Format workout:
- we uploaded into Moodle from a CD to test individual files in each format: all played
- PDF, power point, mp3, wmv, jpg, qt, wav, mp3, mpg, gif, animated gif
II. Format constraints
- A web-based course is NOT paper-pencil: traditional instruction on how to take notes, etc., needs replacement by simulation and voiceover. Writing is done on computer inside of web-based forms when needed, keyed to objectives for traditional CNA-course, i.e. journals, feedback, chats, etc.
- Think composition in terms of hypertext, interactivity, and radio; computer as partner
- a Moodle page can handle any format; however, there are several specific constraints
- students who do not have dsl at home really do need to use school labs
- audio and video clips should be 30-45 seconds and must be contextualized; captioned whenever possible (once we find out how and where)
- 100 megabytes limit per moodle ‘page’ which is typically a topic
- earphones are needed for (on-campus) computer-delivered audio or video
- audio and video and possibly simulations also need to be placed on videotape
- ‘voice-over’ tutorials using stills and screenshots are super for directions and for mini-tutorials; they work beautifully also for contextualizing AV clips
- java applets, voice-overs will be produced at CPCC; some back-up at UNCC
- all uploading will be handled by CPCC IT professionals; content will be delivered to them on flash drives and/or CDs for final production and infusion into course(s)
