Learning Unit 11

In this learning unit, we had to create a powerpoint presentation about “Social Bookmarking”. The presentation can be found on my slideshare website:

I had to add an mp3 file to this presentation and synchronise the voice to match the slides. I did not want to record my actual voice so i tried to use a text-to-speech softwares to convert my text in the slides to an audio mp3 file and add it on slideshare to create a slidecast. I downloaded several TTS softwares but most of them required a fee to convert the text to mp3. The free trial was only to read the text. I finally found a good software, “TTS Reader 1.10″, that saved my text in an mp3 file. I uploaded the mp3 file on the “internet Archive” and this is the link where it could be heard:

Then i added the audio file to the powerpoint and create the slidecast. First an error kept appearing on my screen saying the file can not be shared from the URL provided. I had to try the different URL’s provided on the Internet Archive website for this mp3 file. Finally it worked. Then i shared it on my freewebs site.

 

As for Task 1 of this LU11, we had to find some panoramas and post the links:
