out and about: Andy at Media Enhanced Learning SIG

I've just got back from a one day event at Liverpool John Moore's University organised by the HEA Media Enhanced Learning SIG. I've made a few notes on my personal work blog (http://andyramsden.wordpress.com). A few points I took from the day include;

  • some very good examples around getting staff to create their own video material

  • copyright and ethics issues around the capturing material


I'd suggest anyone at UCS interested in developing media enhanced learning activities should engage with is the JISC Digital Media Service, who provide a considerable amount of material around guidelines, help etc., For instance, I'm just about to run a number of sessions using Camtasia for people interested in screen capture (talk through powerpoints etc.,). So I'll need to include, http://www.jiscdigitalmedia.ac.uk/crossmedia/advice/screencasting-workflow.

Some software which caught my eye - in terms of easily allowing an individual to add audio over images, create a small-ish file and easily facilitate the file uploaded to youTube, blogs etc, is Microsoft's Photo Story Software (http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/digitalphotography/photostory/default.mspx)
