Feedback from Mujer, a PresentationTube user

We received this feedback from Mujer, a PresentationTube user via Give away of the day http://giveawayoftheday.com/presentationtube-22

Installed fine on PC, Windows 7 Home Premium, 64 bit. The first “problem” is that v2.0 and not v2.2 is installed. Launching the program automatically also opens my laptop’s webcam. Make this an option, please. Having the camera (and it’s blue or red light) on is annoying, distracting and disturbing. Also, changes made to the Recording Options only apply to one session and must be reset every time the program is launched. (The changed settings might apply to only 1 recording and may need to be reset for subsequent recordings made during the same session but I only made 1 recording.) Please, also add a listing of features to your webpage. There’s little information re in what form/file formats recordings can be saved, on what needs to be done between recording and uploading.

All this being said, I like the program. It’s simple, has an uncomplicated interface and does what it says it’s going to do. I would have loved to have had this program on the computers of our Tech Lab when I was teaching. It would be good for students who were ready to move up from simple PowerPoint or Movie Maker projects.

Flickr

While there are tens of photo-hosting applications on the Web, one of the most innovative is Flickr. Flickr is a photo management and sharing online application that provides a place to share photos and meet people with similar interests, even if photography is not their focus. Using Flickr, users can upload, download, tag, rate, and c om ment on photos. Users can manage and organize images, and create private or public groups to cultivate a sense of c om munity.   Flickr offers a vast collection of images that are not available elsewhere, and its collaborative tools have made it popular in higher education. Flickr contains imagery that can be used in teaching to help develop visual literacy skills. University instructors have begun using Flickr images in their courses to share, critique, and analyze visual information. In addition, the design of Flickr intentionally promotes the development of community. The ability to engage users in a conversation about a photo, and to u...

الناجح من يستطيع رؤية ماهو أبعد من أن يراه الآخرون

رسالة من صديق في أحد الأيام دخل صبي يبلغ من العمر 10 سنوات الى مقهى وجلس على الطاوله ، فوضعت الجرسونة كأساً من الماء أمامه فسئل الصبي : بكم آيسكريم بالكاكاو ؟ أجابته : بخمس دولارات. فأخرج الصبي يده من جيبه وأخذ يعد النقود فسألها مرة أخرى : حسنا ً وبكم الآيسكريم لوحده فقط بدون كاكاو ؟ في هذهِ الأثناء كان هناك الكثير من الزبائن ينتظرون خلو طاوله في المقهى للجلوس عليها فبدأ صبر الجرسونه بالنفاذ ، فأجابته بفظاظه : بـ أربع دولارات. فعد الصبي نقوده وقال: سآخذ الايسكريم العادي فأحضرت الجرسونة له الطلب ، ووضعت فاتورة الحساب على الطاولة وذهبت أنهى الصبي الآيسكريم ودفع حساب الفاتورة وغادر المقهى وعندما عادت الجرسونة إلى الطاولة إغرورقت عيناها بالدموع أثناء مسحها للطاوله حيث وجدت بجانب الطبق الفارغ .. دولار واحد أترون .. لقد حرم الصبي نفسه الآيسكريم بالكاكاو حتى يوفر لنفسه دولاراً يكرم به الجرسونة. ما دعاني لطرح هذا الموقف أو القصه القصيره هو أننا كثيرا مانقع في حرج أو نتسبب في شحن نفسي تجاه أناس آخرين نحمل لهم الكثير من الحب والتقدير ولكن الاستعجال بإصدار حكمنا عليهم يتسب...

The Third International Conference of e-Learning and Distance Education - Riyadh - 4-7 February 2013

As e-learning is increasingly being embraced and implemented  in Higher Education, it is important to explore and measure whether it is empowering, engaging and performance driven. Over the last decade, many e-learning projects have been initiated and many impactful research papers have been published. The next step is to make sense of the past, the present and the future e-learning research initiatives to strategize and implement e-learning that is engaging and performance driven.
