Immersive Presentations: Get Your Live Video Inside Your Slides with Personify Live

Immersive Presentations: Get Your Live Video Inside Your Slides with Personify Live | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

Puts you right in front of your content, like you're really there!


Robin Good: Personify Live is a new type of Windows app which allows you to integrate in your live webcast, online event or webconference your real-time video image overlayed on the slide content you are showcasing.

 

To achieve this result, Personify Live extends the capabilities of your favorite web conferencing solution (GoToMeeting, GoTowebinar, WebEx, Adobe Connect, Skype, Lync, etc.) "by extracting you from your surroundings and placing you within the presentation".

 

"The technology creates a virtual green screen feel for the presenter, for a communication experience that attempts to come as close to being physically present in front of the audience as possible.


[Personify Live] extracts live video of the presenter to then superimpose it onto the desktop to create a layer on top of a presentation.


There’s also a complementary iPhone or Android app that acts as a remote control, letting presenters mute the video feed of themselves with a click of a button, and interact with the content to emphasize and engage their audience.

Hacía meses que no dejaba constancia de mi existencia de este blog que crece a pasos agigantados no solo de colaboradores, sino de visitas, herramientas, tanto que incluso hasta a los propios que estamos aquí –o al menos a mi- no me da tiempo a asimilar.

Por ello y como demostrado queda en el presente blog que las nuevas tecnologías abren nuevas oportunidades y crean nuevas herramientas novedosas que pueden ser utilizadas para reforzar el aprendizaje, he decidido dedicar la entrada de hoy a las llamadas Apps o aplicaciones que no son más que programas que se instala en un dispositivo móvil -ya sea teléfono o tableta- y que se puede integrar a las características del gadget, como su cámara o sistema de posicionamiento global (GPS).

Core of Education Vodcast: TedEd, MOOCs, QR codes, augmented reality & flipped classrooms

Core of Education Vodcast: TedEd, MOOCs, QR codes, augmented reality & flipped classrooms | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

In "Free Technology for Teachers" written by Richard Byrne

 

A few weeks ago I was a guest on Rod Berger's Core of Education podcast. It went so well that Rod proposed the idea of a bi-weekly(ish) vodcast or video series in which we spend ten minutes or so talking about apps and trends in educational technology. We recorded the first episode today. In the episode (embedded below) we hit on TedEd and its role in education, MOOCs, QR codes, augmented reality, and flipped classrooms.

Free Technology for Teachers: Animation Desk - Create Short, Animated Videos (by @rmbyrne)

Free Technology for Teachers: Animation Desk - Create Short, Animated Videos (by @rmbyrne) | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

Animation Desk is an iPad app (free and premium versions available) for creating short, animated videos. The app allows you to create drawings using just your finger on your iPad's screen. In the free version of the app (the version that I tried) you can create up to 50 scenes in each of your projects. In each scene you can include as little or as much as you want to draw on the canvas. There are a few different brush and pencil effects that you can use in your drawings. The opacity of the colors you choose can be altered too. When you have completed drawing all of your scenes hit the play button to watch your animation unfold. If you're happy with your animation you can export it to YouTube. If you don't like an aspect of your animation, you can go back and edit one scene or all of the scenes.

Hace unas semanas explicaba con un par de screencasts cómo realizar una copia de seguridad y cómo reiniciar un curso Moodle, tareas indispensables antes de empezar la actividad en nuestras aulas virtuales durante este curso. Ahora «solo» nos queda empezar a publicar recursos y actividades para los alumnos, no sin antes hacer unos pequeños ajustes en nuestros espacios virtuales.

En estos 6 nuevos screencasts explico paso a paso cómo ajustar las preferencias del curso, cómo publicar archivos y enlaces, el proceso de «incrustación» de contenidos multimedia (vídeos y documentos) y cómo crear tareas para los alumnos, para que puedan hacernos llegar sus trabajos en formato digital.

Here's a technology that any student can use to 'blend' the traditional lecture with online productivity tools.

 

Take notes and they are wirelessly uploaded to Evernote, along with a sync track of the lecture you're listening to.  Very slick.

Best 15 Free Video Conferencing Tools 2012

Best 15 Free Video Conferencing Tools 2012 | Create, Innovate & Evaluate in Higher Education | Scoop.it

Robin Good: If you are looking for a free video conferencing solution, here is my selection of the top 15 (and more) solutions available right now online.

I have personally checked each one of them, and while you may not like each one, they all guarantee the ability to video conference with more than two people (FlashMeeting is the only exception I have included) without you needing to pay anything for it.

 

Some, as good as Vidyo or Zoom.us may provide HD quality video and even full support for mobile platforms. Others, like MeBeam or Sinfor offer bare-bone ad-supported solutions that have zero frills but can do the job if you need an immediate, zero-cost solution.

 

Check it out here: http://pinterest.com/robingood/top-15-free-video-conferencing-tools-2012/

 

P.S.: Feel free to suggest tools you know that should belong in this collection.
