Penn State Learning Design Community Hub

Just before the 2009 TLT Symposium, we created a "banner ad" of sorts to advertise the Symposium.  Afterward, we replaced this ad with promotional widget about the Learning Design Summer Camp.  Today, we changed it again to advertise a Faculty Quickstart Guide that lists technologies and services that can help to transform a course (Adobe Connect, ANGEL, Blogs, Digital Commons, Tech Classrooms, etc...). 

 Here is the link to today's PSU Multimedia Group meeting, featuring Zac Zidik,  that was recorded via Adobe Connect (thanks to Yvonne Clark):

 Just wanted to let everyone know that we will be holding Multimedia Community group meetings on a monthly basis. Topics will include Flash, video, audio, 3D, podcasting, and basically anything related to multimedia. Our first meeting will be held on Friday, September 26th from 10-11 AM in 202K Rider Bldg. Our first topic will be on transitioning to Actionscript 3.0 for Flash users. We welcome any multimedia developers or others that may be interested in the topics.

I have a faculty member who has dozens of Flash video clips produced from Camtasia studio. These video clips have been used in his classes for several semesters and had never had audio problems. However, recently the same video clips start giving out sporadic "tweaked noise" - something like playing a fast-forwarded audio cassette - along the normal narration. Meanwhile, any keyboard strikes recorded before now echo so much that they sound like fireworks.
