| | Electronic Instructor's Guide & Display Presentation
 CADE provides tools
to create an Electronic Instructor's Guide that can be used to aid the
instructor or presenter prior to and during a live broadcast or an eTutor
Session. The
Instructor's Guide helps an instructor break down the course into logical
components, keep bullets and notes for on-screen presentation, provides a coordination mechanism for
instructor and control room personnel, automates the delivery
of displayable media during a broadcast, and can even control video routing in
the studio.
Each guide "component" conveys a single concept or camera view for the
broadcast or eTutor participants. Each component is associated with a standard icon so the
presenter can readily identify the component's delivery form: a PowerPoint
slide, an animation, instructor on screen, question, video, or many other possibilities.
An Instructor's Guide can be created for any course or lesson and can be used to
produce:
- Paper based Instructor's Guide with presentation graphics and notes
- On-Screen script and notes to be used during a broadcast
- Automated stored media selection and display
- Automated video routing to the uplink
Stored Media Selection and Display
Electronic media can be stored with an individual component. When a
component is reached during a broadcast or eTutor Session, information stored
with that component: a question, PowerPoint, graphic, or any other displayable item, the Electronic Instructor's Guide
automatically retrieves that item from the CADE database or from a link
on the network and makes it available for uplink or displays it on the eTutor
Desktop. Different components may
produce different actions:
- Instructor - Indicate the instructor is the focus
- Slide - Display a slide
- Question - Display a question
- Answer - Display a slide and issue a question from the database
- Histogram - Display the results of an issued question
- Video Clip - Show a video clip
- Audio Clip - Play and audio file
- Time - Set and display a countdown clock
- And More...
 Web-Based Instructor's Guide Maintenance
The Electronic Instructor's Guide is built and maintained within the Learning
Management Web using a standard web browser. It is primarily used to
create the course sequence and flow but it also includes many other extremely
beneficial functions.
- Assign and store displayable items to individual Components
- PowerPoint slides
- Graphic Images
- Computer animation
- Audio/Video clips
- Documents, spreadsheets, acrobat files
- Specify links to a web page
- Link Questions directly from the CADE database
- Import Questions to the database from PowerPoint slides
- Apply a background template for broadcast questions
- Enter Individual text, comments, notes, bullet points
- Insert, Rearrange, or Delete components
- Search component library for reusable components
- Copy components from other courses
- Spell check individual components or entire Guide
Automated Video Routing to the Uplink
Since every aspect of an IDL program can be scripted with the Electronic
Instructor's Guide, there is an inherent understanding of what camera, what
video source, should be used at any given time. With the use of the
CADE Video Routing system, video selection can be controlled automatically
so no human needs to be involved deciding which source to use or when. More information
on this unique feature can be found in the section Script
Controlled Video Routing.
