Webinar: Video Storytelling Made Easy with Adobe Spark 2018-05-22TechSoup
Ā
In this presentation, Courtney Thomas from Adobe Spark provides tips and resources on how to get viewers to take action after watching your organizationās video.
A design system is a framework of practices that bring designers and products together. It is a platform to identify, and document what to share, whether a visual style, design patterns, front-end UI components, and practices like accessibility, research, content strategy.
The role of design with enterprise organizations is expanding, spreading across product teams and influencing decision-making at higher and higher levels. This scale, paired with the array of devices, browsers, screen sizes, locales, and environments, makes it increasingly challenging to align designers and developers to deliver cohesive user experiences.
In this talk, Iāll discuss the lessons learned, the challenges faced, and best practices for creating and maintaining an effective interface design system.

Hosting your website on campus not only has it's own risks but there are probably more "hidden costs" than you are aware.
The same can be said for trying to deploying your own streaming media server, digital asset management system, course catalog management system or countless other technology tools. Many of these tools are needed by the people that handle marketing and are increasingly being migrating towards the web.
In this thought provoking presentation Kyle hopes to start the discussion about why we do many of the technology projects the way we do and ask if there is a better, more cost effective way to do them. This isn't an us vs them debate but a how can we do more with less (people and/or budget).
Disclaimer: I'm not saying IT is bad or evil I'm hoping to start a discussion that is long overdue about how and why we do projects the way before. I spent three years in Higher Ed IT so I can relate to both sides.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Ā
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
Ā
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasnāt one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Editor's Notes
Since we launched Creative Cloud in the spring of 2012, itās evolved pretty dramatically from an affordable way to get Adobeās leading creative desktop apps as a subscription, to a rich service that drives deep connections between the creative industryās most complete family of mobile apps, and powerful editions of our CC desktop tools -- enabling our software to work seamlessly, as one, across desktop and mobile devices.
Creative Cloud includes:
The worlds creative apps, reimagined to work across desktop and mobile
Your creative assets, everywhere you need them
A growing, vibrant, world-class creative marketplace
Deep connections to the creative community with Behance, so you can share your work, get inspired, and get noticed, plus access to thousands of tutorials to help you get started on any new project or learning any new creative skill.
What youāll see with these next updates to Creative Cloud is that Adobe is really continuing to pay off our vision for a frictionless creative process across desktop apps, mobile apps and services.
At the heart of Creative Cloud is Adobe CreativeSync, a signature technology that intelligently syncs files, fonts, photos, design assets, settings, metadata, Adobe Stock content and more. With CreativeSync, assets are instantly available, in the right format, wherever designers need them -- across desktop, web and mobile apps. Available exclusively in Creative Cloud, CreativeSync means work can be kicked-off in any connected Creative Cloud mobile app or CC desktop tool; picked up again later in another, with changes consolidated and saved; and finished in the designerās favorite CC desktop software.
**************
Note to presenters if you are asked what this means for CC Libraries or Creative Profile:
Creative Cloud Libraries is a feature in Creative Cloud apps, powered by Creative Sync, which gives you easy in-app access to your assets.
Your profile is the personal dashboard you can access with your Adobe ID that displays your apps, assets and account info in one place.
The 2015 release of Creative Cloud features:
New Adobe magic and huge performance improvements across the entire family of 15 CC desktop apps, which have been upgraded to be the 2015 release. The worldās best creative apps have been reimagined to work across desktop and mobile, so you can start a project in a mobile app and finish it on your desktop to make the act of creating more efficient and more flexible.
Get instant access to your photos, brushes, sketches, colors, fonts, design assets and more within your CC apps thanks to CreativeSync, which intelligently syncs your assets so you can start your work in one place and finish it in another. Weāll talk more about CreativeSync in few moments. And both Premiere Pro and After Effects will now have Creative Cloud Libraries, giving you in-app access to all of your assets in our flagship video apps.
And introducing Adobe Stock. You can jump-start your projects with 40 million images from Adobe Stock, accessible from right within within CC desktop apps. And when you add Stock to your Creative Cloud membership, youāll get the industryās best value at 40% off. Weāll talk more about Adobe Stock and our pricing options in a few moments.
Here are a few highlights of whatās new in our 2015 desktop apps:
[CLICK]
Illustrator CC is now up to ten times faster than CS6, thanks to a new Mercury Performance System boost. Designers using Illustrator CC can also create beautiful data-driven visualizations including custom charts, graphics and info-graphics using a preview of a simplified Chart interface.
InDesign gets its own Mercury Performance System boost with zooming, scrolling, and paging up and down complex documents now twice as fast, and the ability to effortlessly publish and distribute documents online with Publish Online (Preview).
Assets in Creative Cloud Libraries can now be linked so that when a change is made to an asset, you and your team members have the option of updating it across any Photoshop, Illustrator or InDesign projects wherever itās used.
[CLICK]
Photoshop CC now includes Artboards, to create multiple layouts in different sizes in a single document, and a preview of a new technology called Photoshop Design Space (Preview), which offers a designated mode with new interactions and design-focused features that reduce clicks, mouse movements and clutter for designers working on mobile apps and websites.
New responsive web design capabilities in Dreamweaver CC let designers quickly lay out and build production-ready sites that adapt to any screen size, and Adobe Muse now includes instant access to premium fonts from Typekit.
[CLICK]
Premiere Pro CC leaps further ahead of the competition, with the Lumetri Color panel for powerful color corrections using intuitive sliders and other simple controls; and Morph Cut, which makes it easier to deliver polished interview content by smoothing out jump cuts, in talking-head shots, to create a cohesive, polished sequence.
For After Effects CC, Uninterrupted Preview allows artists to adjust a compositionās properties and even resize panels without impacting playback. Also, the groundbreaking Adobe Character Animator brings 2D figures to life using a webcam to track facial movements, record dialog and apply movements in real time onto a pre-configured character.
And both Premiere Pro and After Effects will now have Creative Cloud Libraries, giving you in-app access to all of your assets in our flagship video apps.
[CLICK]
Lightroom CC is shipping the stunning Dehaze feature, first sneaked at Adobe MAX in October 2014. This breakthrough capability eliminates fog and haze from photos, including underwater shots, for startlingly clear images. This feature is also available in the update to Photoshop thanks to Camera Raw 9.1 enhancements.
You can also add monochromatic or color noise to your Blur Gallery effects in Photoshop to better match your original image ā and to reduce banding when viewing and printing.
The Healing Brush, Spot Healing Brush and Patch tools have been turbocharged with Mercury Graphics Engine enhancements. See your Healing Brush results in real time, and get Spot Healing Brush and Patch Tool results that are up to 120X faster than they were in CS6.
And you can combine photos with different exposures into a single HDR image in Lightroom, which is a feature that we recently shipped with the CC Photography Plan update in April.
Last year when we introduced our new CC mobile apps, we began a journey down a path to make our creative apps work as one, across desktop and mobile. For example, Photoshop CC is part of a family of mobile apps that includes apps to capture inspiration on your phone and bring that into your other apps as a production-quality asset (like Brush, Shape and Color), as well as apps that extend the power of Photoshop to devices like Photoshop Mix, Photoshop Sketch, and the new Comp CC for starting a layout on your iPad and finishing it on the desktop.
Weāre taking that a step further in June by bringing more mobile capabilities to video, with our first capture app for video, called Adobe Hue CC (formerly Project Candy). Hue provides an easy way to capture and share production-quality lighting and color schemes by using an iPhone camera and then applying those looks on a Premiere Pro or After Effects project via Creative Cloud Libraries, which are now in both Premiere Pro and After Effects.
Weāre also expanding our mobile workflows to Android with Shape, Color, Brush, and Photoshop Mix coming to Android on June 16.
These 2 big mobile updates bring powerful, connected mobile-to-desktop workflows to all creatives, regardless of the type of content they create or the mobile platform they choose.
So what makes Adobe Stock unique?
First, thereās high-impact creative content for print, web or mobile app projects. Adobe Stock is an extensive marketplace of 40 million photos, illustrations and graphics, covering virtually every subject. Whether itās finding a standout image of a Scottish castle for a tourist brochure; a beach volleyball game for a sports web site; or an illustration of a restaurant menu for a mobile app, Adobe Stock has a huge selection of high-impact possibilities. And weāll make it easy for our customers to contribute to Adobe Stock, so the service will quickly grow with the worldās highest-quality content from the worldās best creators ā our customers. Adobe also plans to add new stock content categories in the coming months, leveraging Adobe customersā unrivalled reach and experience across creative fields.
Next, thereās the deep integration with the desktop apps that creatives rely on. Designers can launch Adobe Stock directly within CC desktop software, add watermarked images to Creative Cloud Libraries and then access and work with images across multiple desktop tools such as Photoshop CC, Illustrator CC and InDesign CC. This makes it incredibly simple to work with watermarked images in their comps.
Then, when creatives are ready to license the image for finished work, they can do it directly within the desktop software they are working in. Innovative workflows also accelerate the creative process: designers can edit a watermarked image in an application like Photoshop CC and, when licensed, these edits are magically applied to the purchased full-resolution image. This capability is powered by CreativeSync, which we just discussed a few moments ago.
A beautiful standalone web site, stock.adobe.com, enables anyone ā including designers and marketers who are not yet Creative Cloud members ā to purchase, download or sell stock images.
A final benefit of Adobe Stock is that we will offer simple, high-value pricing plans that take the pain and complexity out of purchasing stock content.
1. Customers can buy a bundle of CCT complete + stock for 79.98 (for existing CS3 customers), or 99.98 for new customers
Ā
2. Existing CCT customers can add on a subscription of stock to their CCT complete or single app plan. There are two levels of subscriptions: 10 images per month for $29.99/month, and for power users, we will offer a package of 750 images per month for $199.99/month. I should point out here that this provides you w/ a GREAT opp to call existing CCT customers and grow your accounts. As I mentioned before, we know that Adobe customers are the greatest consumers of and contributors to stock ā so what a great reason to pick up the phone (awesome land an expand play here).
Ā
3. If customers do want to buy as they go, or are interested in buying stock ONLY (w/o a CCT membership), they can do so on stock.adobe.com, but remind them that a 10-seat stock subscription will be 40% higher if they buy stock without Creative Cloud. Customers will get the best value in the industry when they buy Adobe Stock w/ a CCT membership.
Ā
The last thing to point out about Adobe Stock, which is something thatās unique to the stock image industry, is that anyone who signs up for a10-images-per-month plan can carry over unused images from month to month, for up to a year.Ā With typical stock image month-to-month subscription plans, creatives have to download and use all the images every month or lose them.Ā
Adobe Stock will be available on June 16th in 36 countries and 13 languages.
