  • ``Even More Or Less'': a Data-Rich Interactive Podcast Player
    “Even More or Less”: A data-rich interactive podcast player Dr. Chris Baume BBC Research and Development London, UK [email protected] ABSTRACT Podcast players make poor use of the capabilities of the screen-based devices people use to listen. We present a podcast playback interface that displays charts, links, topics and contributors on an interactive transcript-based interface. We describe how we used paper prototyping to design the interface and what we learnt by doing so. We share preliminary results from a public online evaluation of the interface, which indicate that it was well-received. The new features were considered interesting, informative and useful, with charts and transcripts emerging as the most popular features.

  • Creating Enhanced Podcast Virtual Lectures Using Enhanced Podcasts and Powerpoint to Deliver Online Modular Lectures
    Creating Enhanced Podcast Virtual Lectures Using Enhanced Podcasts and PowerPoint to Deliver Online Modular Lectures Michael A. Russell AC 2568 503.491.7348 [email protected] Abstract: This report proposes a methodology that can be used to create enhanced podcast lectures using PowerPoint and audio podcasting tools. Podcasting is a new and exciting multimedia Web delivery protocol accessible to anyone with an Internet connection. Enhanced podcasts can be created on both Windows and Macintosh platforms by anyone with a microphone and an audio input, and one does not require an iPod to view or listen to a podcast (listening and viewing is possible through the free cross-platform iTunes program.) The process starts by digitally recording audio lectures (using a wireless Lavaliere microphone and a boundary microphone connected to a MAudio MicroTrack recorder.) Relevant PowerPoint slides from the recorded lecture can be converted into static graphic files (.png or .jpg) then combined with the audio recordings to create an enhanced podcast. Posting the podcasts to the Web makes the content accessible to anyone. I plan to slice my normal 50-minute lectures into more manageable "learning modules" of no more than ten minutes length. Students would need to listen to a lecture module on "electrons" only instead of listening to the entire lecture on "atoms", for example. Instructions and examples of creating enhanced podcasts from my PowerPoint lectures will be provided. This methodology is applicable towards all faculty and staff interested in podcasting and creating podcast lectures. Note that this document may be viewed on the World Wide Web: http://gst-d2L.com/TLC Contents: I.

  • The Organizational Level 31 the Identity Level 32 the Experiential Level 33 Leadership Involvement in Each Level 34 Measuring and Assessing Brandraising’S Impact 35
    ftoc.indd x 10/20/09 3:28:08 PM “Brandraising is a timely, critically important contribution for all nonprofi ts. As ‘competition’ intensifi es, resources dwindle, and senior executives are drawn to react in short-term crisis mode, it becomes even more vital that external (and internal!) communications stay as strategic as possible. The ultimate perception of ‘brand’ will be the extent to which the audience clearly understands the organization’s vision, and Sarah Durham gets this ironclad principle. With step-by- step sage guidance, Brandraising should be a dog-eared resource for perceptive chief executives in the sector.” —Mark Lipton, consultant on nonprofi t board strat- egy and professor of management, Milano: The New School for Management and Urban Policy “Brandraising is a must-read for any organization operating in the noisy and crowded nonprofi t arena today. Sarah Durham ‘fl ips the switch’ on our understanding of a holistic communications strategy. Like the architecture of the planning and implementation she encour- ages, the architecture of this book delivers a clear and smart message. Finally, in one volume we can fi nd the structure and the techniques any institution can use to place itself above the din.” —Nancy Schwartz Sternoff, director, Dobkin Family Foundation “Sarah Durham presents her considerable expertise with a smart com- bination of authority and accessibility that makes Brandraising a must- read for fundraisers and nonprofi t communications and marketing staff—no matter how long they’ve been in the business or the size

    levelator download windows 10 The Levelator. Le problème lorsque qu’on écoute de la musique ou quand on diffuse un podcast est la différence flagrante entre les niveaux de son. Cela peut poser des problèmes à l’écoute et The Levelator peut sauver la mise dans ce genre de situation. Il s’agit d’un programme spécialement conçu pour uniformiser le volume de plusieurs fichiers audio. Il est très simple à prendre en main, car il suffit de faire un glisser/déposer de souris pour uniformiser les fichiers à traiter. Il est capable de travailler des fichiers au format Wav, Adobe Soundbooth ou Aiff. Son interface graphique est très bien pensée et cela aide beaucoup pour le paramétrage. Comme c’est un gratuiciel, il suffit de le télécharger pour découvrir toutes les fonctions proposées. Software » Audio Encoders » The Levelator 2.1.1. The Levelator is a software that runs on Windows and OS X that adjusts the audio levels within your podcast or other audio file for variations from one speaker to the next, for example.
