Video killed the 'PDF' star: taking information resource guides online

Easy-to-use technologies now allow librarians to create their own customised digital and video tutorials. This article takes a look at publisher-created video tutorials. It considers the pros and cons of libraries creating their own video-format guides, and elaborates on DCU Library's own experience in producing video-based tutorials on databases customised to local needs using Camtasia and Screentoaster

Technology in Hybrid Learning: Improving ScienceEducation at UNLV

Our campus has a diverse and unique range of learners. Flipping the classroom offers a greater opportunity for student success. I have converted the Introductory Chemistry course, CHEM 108, into a Hybrid learning format. The driving force behind this pedagogy, is accessibility. Taking the traditional lecture out of the classroom and putting it into an interactive video format gives students more flexibility with their schedules and allows them to learn the content at their own pace. Additionally, by utilizing H5P interactive classroom features, students are able to get meaningful feedback during the video lecture to help gauge their understanding of the content they are learning. Finally, flipping the classroom experience and working through the more challenging concepts in the face-to-face setting reinforces the foundation put in place by the video lecture.https://digitalscholarship.unlv.edu/btp_expo/1097/thumbnail.jp

Contour Detector and Data Acquisition System for the Left Ventricular Outline

A real-time contour detector and data acquisition system is described for an angiographic apparatus having a video scanner for converting an X-ray image of a structure characterized by a change in brightness level compared with its surrounding into video format and displaying the X-ray image in recurring video fields. The real-time contour detector and data acqusition system includes track and hold circuits; a reference level analog computer circuit; an analog compartor; a digital processor; a field memory; and a computer interface

INSTREAM VIDEO QUEUEING AD FORMAT

Systems and methods for unobtrusively queueing advertising are disclosed. In a first “opt-out” method, the promoted content or advertisement may be automatically queued for display after the present video, and the interstitial or banner advertisement may include a ‘remove’ or ‘skip’ button to remove the content from the queue. Accordingly, the promoted content may immediately be made available for the user for subsequent viewing, unless the user clicks the remove or skip button to remove the content from the queue. The button may appear for any length of time, such as during the promotion or advertisement, as well as after the promotion or advertisement. For example, in some implementations, the button may be visible for a minimum period of time to allow the user to react, such as 20-30 seconds, even if the advertisement is of shorter length (e.g. 5-10 seconds)
