open source eLearning authoring tool January 28, 2008

Filed under: new and cool, random musings — Jenn @ 7:46 am

I’ve just downloaded eXe, an open source eLearning authoring tool, and will report back when I’ve had a chance to play with it. Anyone else tried it?

It looks interesting- and open source is always worth looking into, in my opinion…

There’s a youtube video intro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yynnOC6ecR4

Animations can make your courses and your presentations come alive. And you don’t have to learn flash – you can make simple animations right within Powerpoint. The Rapid eLearning Blog  has some great ideas- and a tutorial on making simple animations in PPT. Check it out!

Jott is fabulous… January 11, 2008

Jott is fabulous. It allows you to talk and it will transcribe what you say and post it to something like your blog or to someone’s e-mail or text it to someone’s phone. It’s a great tool. If you haven’t checked it out you should.

I posted this by calling and talking- and jott transcribed what I said and posted it here for me. Wonderful!
