Vero quanto dice la descrizione, però c'è un mucchio di annunci pubblicitari pulsanti. Perciò meglio aprire una nuova scheda del browser per fare altro mentre si scarica il file audio. Utile quando l'audio YT è debole, come in http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CvI0dMcNCcA dopo i primi 28 secondi (su 56 minuti e 9 secondi)

Peccato che per scaricare questo "slideshare" siamo obbligati a iscriverci a facebook o linkedin. Ci rinuncio. Ci sarà qualcosa di analogo un po' più libero e, soprattutto, più diretto?

Ho riabilitato il download che avevo disattivato, perché, guardando alcune presentazioni in slideshare, avevo notato che era quasi sempre disattivato. Pensavo fosse la procedura migliore. Per quanto riguarda altri servizi di hosting, proverò le modalità che suggerisci. Grazie, i tuoi insegnamenti sono impagabili.

Molti disabilitano il download perché temono che le loro produzioni vengano utilizzate da altri, nell'ottica "è mio, l'ho fatto io". Peccato...

"(su come visualizzare / nascondere i sottotitoli o cambiarne la lingua, e su come visualizzarne la trascrizione interattiva, cfr. Attivazione e disattivazione dei sottotitoli nelle FAQ sui sottotitoli di YouTube) Iter della sottotitolazione A Facebook Update In Real Life - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JvQcabZ1zrk -è stato pubblicato su YouTube l'11 maggio 2013 da ExtremelyDecentFilms. Dylan Mahoney (sopranome: Booger Bender) lo ha aggiunto ad Amara.org, e più particolarmente al team Captions Requested, come http://www.amara.org/en/videos/bc0aoz7ueVek/info/a-facebook-update-in-real-life perché venga sottotitolato da volontari, il 12 maggio 2013. In effetti, finora (21 aggio 2013) diversi volontari l'hanno sottotitolato lì in inglese (lingua originale), francese, italiano, portoghese e tedesco, ed è in corso una sottotitolazione spagnola. Però se Amara è un ottimo strumento per la sottotitolazione, non funziona tanto bene per la visualizzazione: il player ha un codice embed che viene rifiutato da quasi tutte le piattaforme per scrivere online, poi comunque, in modalità "pieno schermo", non mostra i sottotitoli fatti con Amara. Per questo motivo ho ripubblicato il video su YouTube in A Facebook Update In Real Life - with subtitles - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=99jWvUIw7YA - poi vi ho aggiunto i sottotitoli fatti con Amara, rimandando nella descrizione alle pagine di lavoro delle varie lingue e alla loro storia delle revisione per l'attribuzione ai sottotitolatori. È questa seconda versione YouTube che è embeddata sopra. Trascrizioni scaricabili Da ogni sottopagina di sottotitolazione linkata nella colonna sinistra della versione Amara del video: English French German Italian Portuguese Si può scaricare una trascrizione semplice dei relativi sottotitoli, cliccando su Download, poi su TXT nella lista a tendina che si apre.

"Author: Andy Carvin , EDC Center for Media & Community | December 7th, 2004 You may have noticed recently that lots of websites now contain little graphical buttons with the word XML on them. For example: XML button When you click on the button, all you see is a bunch of jumbled text and computer code. What's this all about? It's an RSS feed, and they're changing the way people access the Internet. RSS, or Really Simple Syndication, is a technical format that allows online publishers to share and distribute their content to other websites or individual Internet users. It's commonly used for distributing headlines on news websites. Bloggers use it to distribute summaries of their blog entries as well. RSS is written in the Internet coding language known as XML, which is why you see RSS buttons labeled that way. If a website publishes an RSS page, commonly known as an RSS "feed," this feed will contain summaries of all the recent articles posted on that site. For example, Yahoo News publishes news related to world headlines, national news, sports, etc. These you can all read by going to the Yahoo website. But they also publish RSS feeds for each of these subjects. Each RSS feed contains a summary of the most recent news stories posted. Similarly, the Digital Divide Network publishes RSS feeds for our news headlines, events listings and other content on our website. I even have my own RSS feed for articles that I publish on my personal blog, Andy Carvin's Waste of Bandwidth. But why do RSS feeds look like a jumbled mess when I click on them with most Web browsers? It's because RSS feeds are meant to be read by machines rather than people. Software and websites can understand the data contained in RSS feeds and make it available to people on personalized websites, through software known as news aggregators, even through email. So when you aggregate RSS feeds, you're having a computer collect content from many different websites and organize them in a convenient pla

You can also import a custom OPML file to your Scoop.it topic sources. An OPML file allows you to transfer your RSS feeds and other aggregations to other sources easily. This is great news for Google Reader users - you can simply download your OPML file and add it to your Scoop.it sources for your topics.

0 July 2013 Last updated at 08:52 GMT Help 3D printing has been around for some time but now the technology is available for the same price as a top-end TV at shops. 3D printing has been hailed as the future of manufacturing. The technology works by building up layer upon layer of material - typically plastic - to build complex solid objects. The idea is that as the printers become cheaper, instead of buying goods from shops, consumers will instead be able to download designs and print out the items at home. Technology Correspondent Rory Cellan-Jones has been finding out what 3D print stores offer

"EFS 693B - STANFORD UNIVERSITY Advanced Listening and Vocabulary Development (...) TED Talks Introduction Below are groups of TED Talks, curated from http://www.ted.com and organized roughly by level and topic. You should do a full group (divided across several sessions if desired) and see if the integration makes them easier to understand (especially the later ones). Be sure to interact with them--don't just watch all of them straight through. However, you can do all or parts of some more intensively than others. Use your best judgment, and return to previous class notes as needed. Note that you are provided with the following information about the talk: 1. length 2. the overall speed in words-per-minute (WPM) 3. the vocabulary profile by percent of words at set frequency levels of the British National Corpus (3K, 5K, 10K, and more than 20K (off-list=OL)) 4. Accent (US, British, etc.) 5. Comments 6. Brief description of the content (from the TED website) (...) Last modified November 12, 2013, by Phil Hubbard"

Molto interessante e sopratutto utile grazie!

Grazie, Fabrizio, Ho taggato con "EFS_Stanford" - tra altri tag - questo webquest e i video ivi elencati dopo un webinar con Phil Hubbard organizzato via hangout da Vance Stevens domenica scorsa (8 ottobre). Nel webinar Hubbard ha insistito sul fatto che la forma di webquest direttivo era meglio delle forme di collaborazione sociali come tagging e condivisione, perché gli consentiva, da esperto, di dare informazioni coerenti. Allora taggare queste sue risorse TED su Diigo è anche un modo di esprimere il mio dissenso ;-) In effetti a proposito di http://www.ted.com/talks/gel_gotta_share.html , elencato in questo webquest, dice di non poter indicare le parole per minuto "perché non c'è trascrizione". Invece c'è, se si va alla pagina YT originale del video embeddato. Ora se invece di un webquest statico avesse condiviso questa risorsa con i suoi studenti in un gruppo come questo, c'è da scommettere che almeno uno di loro avrebbe rimediato all'errore in un commento - come d'altronde ho fatto in https://groups.diigo.com/group/ltis13/content/tag/EFS_Stanford%20GelConference ...
