I used the following method to create a Slidecast and post in on my web page.
First, I created a power point slide in the .ppt format. Then, I downloaded and used Articulate application to record my narration for each slide. After completing this, I published the whole slidecast (power point presentation with voice narration) in the html format on my local hard drive. Then, I published the html file and corresponding folders to my freewebs web site using an upload feature. Finally, I posted the URL to my published slide cast on my wordpress blog.
Learning_Unit_10-Task#4: How to manage many information resources
Before this course, I usually used e-mail as a communication tool. I have 3 different accounts (Yahoo, Gmail and Hotmail), but I was manly using my Yahoo account. It was very easy to manage and organize mail, since everything was in one place. But recently I noticed some negative issues related to Yahoo. My e-mails were constantly late, and some of them I never received. So, I am planning to switch from Yahoo to Gmail, which is not simply, since I need to inform all my contacts (a lot of them) about my plan. Unfortunately, it means that I am going to deal with both Yahoo and Gmail in couple months. I manage some of the websites used in this course through e-mail notification (for example Ning). It is easy, and I don’t have to check website all the time, since I am informed whenever someone writes a post. E-mail notification for Facebook also helps me to keep track of all new massages. It is very hard to remember all websites covered in this class, so I use Zotero in order to organize them. Some people like to use different usernames and passwords in order to save privacy. I usually have problem to remember different passwords, and I decided to use always the same username and the same password. I realized that it was excellent decision for this course.
