Content formats¶
For now we have more questions than answers.
General notes¶
Documents need to (also) in editable format. If you upload .pdf
please upload whatever
format was used to generate the .pdf
.
Where should we put metadata? Either metadata should be a part of OLCMS data model, or part of uploaded resources.
This is a list of criteria for a content to be “Travelling Well” created as a part of another EC project.
Advice how to prepare each format¶
Advices how to prepare content (formats and graphical presentation)
Printable documents¶
TBD
- Experiments recipe (lots of metadata)
Requirements¶
- Format must be editable, or an editable version must be uploaded along with
.pdf
.
Video¶
TBD
Requirements¶
We definetely should have a single repository for video files, either created in-house or use some generic solution like YouTube or Vimeo. Following features are considered to be essential:
- Support for subtitles
- Support for multiple subtitle tracks
- Support for multiple audio tracks
- Ad-free experience for our students (which excludes free versions of Youtube and Vimeo)
- Videos should be downloadable — as Internet is not avilable in every classroom by default (This fuliflls Adam’s),
- Video watermarks (TBD)
Open questions¶
- Quiz formats
- What codecs will be a problem on WIndoes and what will not.
Requirements for produced videos¶
- Videos should be split to 5-10min parts
- Videos should be interleaved with quizzes that check understanding and keep student attention.
Remote laboratories¶
TBD
Questionaires // Quizzes¶
I would envision these quizzes would be both downloadable and answerable online.
Things TBD¶
- How to tackle content that is intended to be consumed both on-line and in print (actually most
of the contents...)? On line content should adapt to screen size, which
.pdf
doesn’t do, on the other hand.pdf
is one of the format that reliably prints itself.
