Review 1. Learning Experience Interaction

Visual Presentation: The Visual Presentation section tells to

make a power point presentation using Title slide, Course

Objectives, Course Outline and Assessment strategy.

2. Spoken Tutorial: Creating a Video Open Education Resource

i) Creative Commons Licensing: When sharing our resources to

other people through the Internet or when we use readymade

contents from the Internet, we always have to think of licenses. That is, the owner of the content and the way we can use such contents. Creative Commons (CC) is one way that offers public

license that allows you to set the way you want other people to use your content (open educational resources) and how the already

available contents can be used by others.

ii) Spoken Tutorial Project: This section explains how Spoken

Tutorial Project at IIT Bombay utilizes the video creation process. It

is a project that consists of open educational resources available under the Creative Commons.

iii) Creating Spoken Tutorials: This section explains how one can

prepare spoken tutorial videos using many software tools. Like for

Linux systems- Kazam is used. Some others may be- - Record my desktop software

-Moviemaker for windows

3. Other Screen cast Softwares

OTHER SOFTWARE TOOLS There are many software packages that you can use to create your own open Educational resources.

The software marked with GPL (GNU General Public License) in this list come

under the Copyleft, allowing users to freely distribute and modify the

original program. The following non-GPL softwares are also popularly used. 1. Screen cast-o-matic

2. Tech smith Jing (for Windows and OSX) 3. Tech smith Camstatia (for Windows)

4. Quick time (for OSX)

4. Learning Extension Resources Resource Creation in various local languages:

After we have created the screen cast, publish this in YouTube by keeping the

video in Creative Commons. Multimedia Principles: Whenever you want to develop any teaching learning

content such as a PowerPoint presentation, a video resource, an

animation, a learning site such as the one you have created with wordpress or you are developing an online course, you will need to consider how you will get your students engaged while using the materials

without distracting them. Multimedia principles help learners to learn better when they are using different learning materials of your course.

5. Resource Creation and Peer Review: This is the very important

part of the third week FDP as this includes the Screen-O-matic software for recording audio. This is very easy tool to record, save, publish audio using

“how to make a website using Wordpress”.
