CATS 2008 - Day 3 Closing Session(s)

By msmith - 4/2/2008 If you missed day 3, you really blew it. I was one of many people who had low expectations for the festivities. Boy, was I surprised.

The networking was excellent and will continue to be valuable to me at my campus, I'm sure.

CATS 2008 Day 2 session: Camtasia vs. Captivate Smack Down

By pdifalco - 3/29/2008 Patrick Crispin has created an evaluation rubric to pit these two worthy competitors against each other, specifically Adobe Captivate 3 vs. Techsmith Camtasia 5 (newer than what we’re using in TLP). His matrix weights ease of editing very highly (appropriately, I think) but gives nearly equal weight to ease of recording and captioning.

CATS Day 2 Session: Flash Video Captioning (pt2)

By pdifalco - 3/29/2008 Presenter: Joel Bennett (CDL) One possible workflow for creating captioned flash videos for the web: 1. ExpressScribe (free mac/pc) to help create transcription - need audio file version of video 2. Captionate software to create synchronization file (DXFP format XML) 3. Flash 8 to integrate FLV, SWF, XML for progressive download video with captions on 2-line lower third - this uses some ActionScript cut/pasting. Joel Bennett will provide the script with his presentation.

CalWac2 Notes: Testing for Accessibility

By kristin - 4/25/2007 - Category: accessibility By Jim Thatcher. Presentation slides: http://jimthatcher.com/knowbility/testing0906.html. The most important message I got from this presentation is that accessibility testing is a multi-dimensional process. You can’t assume your site is accessible by running it through an automated check. Human testing is also required.
