Good Evening Developers,
As I mentioned in last week's development blog, a key initiative for this development cycle will be the implementation of audio lectures, with a goal of a minimum of 3 found within the course. There are a number of options available to you in implementing audio lectures and over the course of the next few weeks I will highlight some of these possibilities.
The first option I'd like to explore is the use of Adobe Presenter lectures. Adobe Presenter allows us to add audio to PowerPoint files and create flash type presentations to embed within Blackboard. A few of GEN's online courses currently have Adobe Presenter presentations and students have responded really positively to them.
You do not need to do the recording of these lectures; rather, you can provide me with a PowerPoint presentation and an accompanying script and I will take care of the rest for you! Ideally these lectures should be approximately 5-7 minutes in length and contain information relevant to a particular unit (or multiple units) but that is not text specific.
To learn more, please click here to watch a short demonstration on what Adobe Presenter is and how it can serve as an excellent enhancement in your courses: http://www.adobe.com/products/presenter/
If you have any questions on this resource, or questions on anything else as you are working on your development, please let me know. I hope you decide to take advantage of Adobe Presenter as one of your audio lecture modes. I look forward to receiving your presentations and scripts.
Have a great week!
Heather

Good morning developers,
I hope everyone had a nice, relaxing weekend! As you continue working on your development projects, please be thinking about various enhancements you could add to your course(s) to really engage the online learner. On the right side of this blog board you'll see links to various enhancement pieces Amy has discussed in the past.
Another great enhancement opportunity for you is the use of audio presentations. If you are a faculty member at Globe Education Network, you have probably heard about and maybe even have participated in the Max Knowledge online coursework as part of your professional development. As a developer, you can implement learning modules similar to what these courses look like by creating a PowerPoint presentation with a script and interactive instructions and sending them to me to create an interactive audio lecture for you using Adobe Presenter.
