  • App Review: Animoto
  • Animoto’s functionality is in the ability to take photos and video that the user specifies, add a music soundtrack ,which can be from their open source music library or music uploaded by the user, to create a movie complete with transitions.
  • it is a great way to have students in an online class introduce themselves. Students are able to choose the images they would like to share as well as select their music. This provides a window to the students when they get to choose how to express themselves

News: Competing to Catch Plagiarizers - Inside Higher Ed - 1 views

  • The major difference, then, is the database. SafeAssign's library will include a scan of the Internet and weekly updates of the ProQuest ABI/Inform database of 2.6 million articles, as well as student and faculty submissions made Blackboard's network of users.
  • Barrie said Turnitin has a far larger advantage of scale: the Turnitin database includes 40 million student papers from 9,000 academic institutions in 90 countries.
  • SafeAssign asks students for permission to store their papers each time they submit one via Blackboard, which may mean that the catalog grows more slowly than Turnitin's average of 100,000 new papers each day.
  • ...1 more annotation...
  • the more people who use it, the more we have stored in the database, becoming more accurate and more accurate as time goes on.”
  •  
    Turnitin vs SafeAssign for Blackboard. Both are building blocks for blackboard System. SafeAssign is free but a bit unstable, Turnitin is a paid service and subscribed by most institute of higher learning, as well as book publishers.
  •  
    Great resource. It will be good material for any of our staff who are unsure which tool to use.

Hybrid mobile apps take off as HTML5 vs. native debate continues | VentureBeat - 1 views

  • A hybrid app is a native, downloadable app, that runs all or some of its user interface in an embedded browser component. To the user, a hybrid app is almost indistinguishable from a native one: it is downloaded from the app store or marketplace, it is stored on the device, and it is launched just like any other app
  • simply load some pages from their web site as part of the app
  • many companies are not already jumping on the HTML5 bandwagon is the belief that HTML apps cannot access native device features. Indeed, pure mobile web apps
  • ...5 more annotations...
  • hybrid apps, frameworks such as the open source PhoneGap library make it possible for JavaScript code to query the compass, take pictures, find or create contacts and appointments, and tap many other device features that mobile web apps are barred from accessing
  • Access to device features is not the only difference between hybrid apps and mobile web apps. Another important difference is that hybrid apps are mostly distributed through app stores: You don’t browse to a hybrid app
  • the leading smartphones and tablets have very powerful HTML rendering engines, which already support most of the upcoming HTML5 and CSS3 standards
  • Other organizations are developing hybrid apps, while planning to turn them into HTML5 web apps in the future without having to rewrite them from scratch
  • From a strategic point of view, development organizations should seriously consider adopting HTML for mobile app development sooner rather than later. The hybrid app model, although not suitable for all app development needs, provides a cost-effective solution for a very wide range of downloadable app types and allows gradual entry into the new world of HTML5 while future-proofing your investment.

    this article talks about the future of mobile app development... hybrid app which combines web technology with native devices supports ( camera, microphone, address book etc) Does make sense as it is cost effective not to rewrite the coding for each and every devices and also taking into consideration the time taken for constant content changes in educational environment here. maybe we should look into ths.

  • The open source learning management system Moodle has a new mobile companion. Developers at Moodle HQ have released a free app for iOS designed to work with Moodle 2.1 or later.
  • My Moodle isn't a replacement for the Moodle interface; rather, it just provides some additional tools tailored specifically for mobile users. These include the ability to: Capture video, still images, and audio and upload those to Moodle; Upload images and video from users' existing libraries; E-mail and message participants in users' courses; Add notes about users; Add course participants to users' iPhone contact lists; Get help through MoodleDocs; and Access the full Moodle site. (A separate login for the Web version is required with the version of the mobile app.)

    For Fareed and anyone else interested in this mobile development.
