Oh the pedagogy of it all!
• Mobile strengths:
  – In class:
      • BYOD group or pairs work – look up,discuss,respond
      • One-to-one – everything but some create work
      • Lab work – electronic lab notebook
      • More immediate than ICT suite
   – Out of class:
      • Field work - capture
      • Homework – flipped lecture
      • Research – capture & process
What format for content?
• It’s usually faster to read than to listen or watch
• A picture paints a thousand words
• Photos can mislead
• More is communicated by voice than just the words
• Video: some things must be shown
• Interactivity encourages exploration
What format for content?
Medium       Positives                  Negatives
Text         •Speed                     •Flat
             •Pre-existing material     •Does not communicate
                                        emotion
Image        •Much communicated in      •Can be misleading
             a single simple package    without context
Sound        •More communicated by      •Not seen as flashy as
             voice than just words      video?
             •Convenient for
             multitasking
             •Smaller file than video
Video        •Most info                 •Bulky and padded
             communicated               •Demands attention
             •Great for
             demonstrating skills
Tbird Top Tips – Overall view

  devices, things worked nicely
  on Android as well

• For downloadable items,
  consider a Creative Commons
  license
Text – ebooks!
• iBooks Author – simple easy, produces .ibook format
• Free with latest Mac OS
• Print to PDF – it’s beautiful
• If you don’t wish to stop there…

  Word

Sound


• Why sound?
  – Copyright is easier – recorded lectures
  – File size is smaller
  – Listeners can do something else at the same time
  – No bad hair days – staff like it!
  – Voice communicates more than the printed word
  – Excellent, easy way to close distance
How?
• Audacity
• Garageband
• WindowSound Recorder
• But please save as mp3 (wma and wav are dead)
• And apps!!!...
Audioboo
• Like YouTube for sound
• Record in browser
• Attract comments in browser
• Or simply upload
• RSS out, iTunes out  it’s like magic
• Can send these to Apple if you like
• 5-minute sound limit
Soundcloud
• A bit more socially aware
• The app lets you record so good for students to
  record their own stuff and post up
• Very intuitive
• Longer sound limit
Sound threaded discussions
• WimbaVoiceboard
• Voice Thread
• Voxopop
Examples of use
• Audio feedback – increased marks & retention
  http://www.le.ac.uk/duckling
• Voice discussions
• Audioboo – Field use – listen to teacher’s description
  of a flower, student audio-records her own
  comments and findings
• Student can record, using Audioboo for iPhone
  (don’t use iPad app yet)

  YouTube
• Much less junk
• Pretty much just as
  easy to do
• Downloadable
ScreenR
Recorded lectures
• Record the face or just the slides?
• Streaming or download?

Oh the pedagogy of it all! • Mobile strengths: – In class: • BYOD group or pairs work – look up,discuss,respond • One-to-one – everything but some create work • Lab work – electronic lab notebook • More immediate than ICT suite – Out of class: • Field work - capture • Homework – flipped lecture • Research – capture & process
  • 6. What format for content? • It’s usually faster to read than to listen or watch • A picture paints a thousand words • Photos can mislead • More is communicated by voice than just the words • Video: some things must be shown • Interactivity encourages exploration
  • 7. What format for content? Medium Positives Negatives Text •Speed •Flat •Pre-existing material •Does not communicate emotion Image •Much communicated in •Can be misleading a single simple package without context Sound •More communicated by •Not seen as flashy as voice than just words video? •Convenient for multitasking •Smaller file than video Video •Most info •Bulky and padded communicated •Demands attention •Great for demonstrating skills

  • 14. Calibre • Take a Word doc • Save as html • Import into Calibre • Save as epub or mobi • Pdf to epub doesn’t really work • Also try epubbud.com
  • 15. Picture books! • Just use simple pdf!!! • Brilliant results! • I tried everything else • Maps, drawings
  • 16. Handy guide to ebooks File format What device positives negatives pdf Everything Runs on Does not flow, everything does not take advantage of the device’s power epub Everything but Flows, takes Kindle advantage of the devices’s power Open source, somewhat futureproof mobi Kindle Kindle is big Kindle only .ibooks Apple iBooks only Beautiful & easy Apple iBooks only iPad is market leader
  • 18. Sound • Why sound? – Copyright is easier – recorded lectures – File size is smaller – Listeners can do something else at the same time – No bad hair days – staff like it! – Voice communicates more than the printed word – Excellent, easy way to close distance
  • 19. How? • Audacity • Garageband • WindowSound Recorder • But please save as mp3 (wma and wav are dead) • And apps!!!...
  • 20. Audioboo • Like YouTube for sound • Record in browser • Attract comments in browser • Or simply upload • RSS out, iTunes out  it’s like magic • Can send these to Apple if you like • 5-minute sound limit
  • 21. Soundcloud • A bit more socially aware • The app lets you record so good for students to record their own stuff and post up • Very intuitive • Longer sound limit

  • 27. Video • How many of you have made a YouTube video?
  • 28. YouTube facts • 10 minute limit • Great to embed into LMS • Comments are a mixed blessing • Good statistics • Use branding • Not too easy to download the video • Good way to convert files to mp4
  • 29. Vimeo • Longer video than YouTube • Much less junk • Pretty much just as easy to do • Downloadable
  • 31. Recorded lectures • Record the face or just the slides? • Streaming or download? • Automatic enterprise, or one-by-one? • Huge server space required, very expensive • Screen capture software: QuickTime, Camtasia, iShowU
  • 34. Editing movies – keep it simple • iMovie – free with Mac – saves as .mov, .mp4 • Windows MovieMaker – but doesn’t save as mp4 • Only go to Final Cut Express if you have to! – Bleeped out sounds – Fuzzed out faces – A cut-out logo floating over the image
