I have worked for a small RTO on literacy projects but am spending more time these days in a new role for Tasmania's community corrections - working with marginalised clients.
You can tell this is my first time here - my comment on myself is not a Resource or a Link, it's just me trying to put the heading above my name. Hi everyone.  -  Sue Jordan

These simple video tutorials demonstrate how to get started with making a video and upload it to the Internet. The three courses are: Telling stories, making videos, and publishing videos on a blog. Examples are given for PC and Mac, and include the use of the Flip Video, iMovie, and MovieMaker. The topic that is used as example is having a homebirth. The lessons could be applied to creating an eportfolio.

This could be good for preparation of online professional development materials. It would be great to use a tool like this.  -  Helen Eddy

Comment Mike Seyfang  20 Nov 2008 
I just made my first 'slidecast' over at http://slideshare.com and thought to myself 'WOW - what a great digital story creating tool'. All you need is: - upload some slides - link to some audio - line up audio with slides (using amazing online editor) Done!! - a great little story with text/pictures and sound.
Comment Kerry J  30 Oct 2008 
Hi Geraldine! One option could be to use an online web conferencing tool like Live Classroom that allows you to hold a live session online and then archive it for later consumption. Not only will students get to see slides and web sites presented, but those at the live session can ask questions via text or audio in real time. Definitely a way to quit while you're a head... : )
Comment Geraldine Hardie  20 Sep 2008 
At UOW we are currently looking at new options to deliver course material to students at our various satellite campuses within the area of management. Currently we are using video streaming with "talking head" style delivery. I would be very interested to see if you have had any feedback or information to share on the subject.
Comment Simon Brown  31 Jul 2008 
TAFE Queensland Videolinq is hosting streaming video recorded in the stonemasonry training workshop, with slides and narration added. The example linked at the left (31-07-08) is one of eight streams produced as a pilot for further development. Using Videolinq network streaming technology to tell a digital story from the trade skills workshop floor is a departure from the 'talking head' style of delivery.

Hello All, I would like to get your opinions on new formats that are popping up...the ezine or online magazine. I thought that this was a particularly good example as it is targeted towards young people who are interested in trades and skills careers with the trades and skills ambit being very wide to include digital artists to fashion designers http://www.skillsone.com.au/Ezine/1/
