Lilly East Conference 2010

This June I presented at the Lilly East Conference in Washington, D.C.  My topic was entitled Using Adobe Presenter to Create Interactive Self Paced Tutorials.  The session covered the following areas:

 

Adobe Presenter used with PowerPoint allows you to enhance your presentations by:

  • Adding audio
  • Adding multimedia (video and flash files)
  • Inserting quizzes and surveys
  • Converting into Macromedia Flash format
  • Include Links, Attachments, Notes

 

Advantages of Using Presenter:

·         Addresses a variety of learning styles

·         No need to have PP to view a presentation

·         Small file size even with narration, animation, video, etc.

·         Compatible with ANGEL (and other CMS)

·         Easy to email or publish to web space.

·         Interactive presentation for online or blended courses

 

It was the first time I attended this conference, found it to be well organized, and it had a variety of topics on pedagogical issues, technology in the classroom, and more.  I always enjoy meeting people from other universities and colleges and hearing what ideas and programs are working effectively at their institutions.
