Customizing Streaming Video Playback, SWALLT Online January 13th, 2012
Announcing the January SWALLT Online! Web Conference
DATE - Friday, January 13th, 2012 - New Year’s Day! (Julian Calendar)
TOPIC - Customizing Streaming Video Playback: A Progress Report
SPEAKER- IALLT President-Elect, Harold Hendricks, BYU Humanities Technology & Research Center
Description: Last year at IALLT 2011 we introduced a system for customizable playback of streaming video. Since then, we have worked to improve the player functionality and implemented the technology within the Spanish curriculum. A team of developers have created a “video text” base on the Columbian telenovella Yo soy Betty, la fea that was piloted last semester and is again being used with enhanced features this semester. The presentation will describe the history of the project, the development of the content and a demonstration of the player and authoring tools.
Please join us this Friday, January 13th, 12pm-1pm PST in the LARC BlackBoardCollaborate System. - http://tinyurl.com/6vn5ors
