I married several of my previous assignments to create this e-learning. Here is how it satisfies the capstone assignment requirements:
- Digital document (ebook, infographic, interactive text)
- See the Quick Reference to Importing References with X9 End Note document I created. This document has alternative text added to the images to make it PDF-A compliant.
- Original digital video (2-3 minutes in length) published online with closed captioning (non-auto generated)
- See the X9 End Note Demonstration video which is now linked within the main e-learning, available here on YouTube.
- Your video can be a screencast or mash up (splicing together) of other Creative Commons licensed work you edited / enhanced to create an original work,
- My video from number 2 is a screencast.
- Enhanced Digital Images (at least 2 images) that you have created or edited in some manner. identify how you’ve enhanced the images,
- I created my own avatar as a sort of trademark, the Swedish Nerd, which appears on my slides. She is a mash-up of an avatar I created at avatarmaker.com and added the helmet/hair from an image I found on oercommons.com. I mashed them using Snag-It. Here she is!
- In the Quick Reference to Importing References with X9 End Note document there are several screenshots which I annotated using Snag-It.
- I created my own avatar as a sort of trademark, the Swedish Nerd, which appears on my slides. She is a mash-up of an avatar I created at avatarmaker.com and added the helmet/hair from an image I found on oercommons.com. I mashed them using Snag-It. Here she is!
- Interactive (adaptive type) module
- See the above e-learning, which has quiz questions and links to relevant resources and content embedded within it.
- Identify at least two Open Educational Resources to support identified content.
- within the video, I have linked to two useful OER resources:
- Excelsior College Citation and Documentation website
- APA Referencing Quick Guide and Reference Page (which apologies, I checked APA’s terms and conditions and are actually not licensed for distribution or incorporation into another website. Although I am only linking to it, I am not re-using, manipulating or claiming authorship of their content in any way so I am hoping it will be acceptable.)
- within the video, I have linked to two useful OER resources:
- Label your media with a Creative Commons license (student have a choice on which level of rights to allow or to retain all rights)
- See the thumbnail of the e-learning video above, and below in this blog post.
- Apply your updated Digital Media Checklist created in week 1 to each of your digital media, provide the overview of findings and describe in a short statement or rationale why each digital media artefact will support content development or your lesson.
- Please see the Digital Media Checklist for this assignment.
- Each assignment’s blog post has a link to its checklist at the end. You can see each assignment in order in the Categories drop-down to the left of my blog.
Reflections and what I would have done differently:
- I would have preferred to take the time to create the e-learning as a SCORM package with full accessibility, then publish it on SCORMCloud. Maybe next time!
- I would have recorded the audio first instead of trying to fit existing video to audio done second. Combining audio and video is always tricky. This video I watched to learn how to edit audio recommended this and now I know it’s true!
