Subject: [Xerte-dev] an example optimised for iPad...

Hi all and apologies for cross posting.

I'm sharing this link to a Xerte HTML 5 LO http://mitchellmedia.co.uk/xot/play_html5_36 for a couple of reasons...

1. It's an example of a HTML 5 Xerte LO
2. You might also be interested in the iPad related content

There's a Google form on the last page of the LO if anyone has any comments or suggestions for alternative solutions for conferencing from and between iPads.

Cheers
Ron

For further info:

I've been supporting some college in the East Midlands on an LSIS project which is really all about their respective Moodle developments but they also wanted to be able to create relevant training material using iPads and more importantly to conference and collaborate remotely outside of their f2f meetings from and between iPads. So a relatively unique challenge - but there are one or two options for hosting direct from an iPads and obviously loads of options for content creation and we explored these during training I delivered yesterday.
In prep for the training I also decided it was worth creating a Xerte learning object purely with HTML 5 consumption in mind and very much optimised for iPad consumption. As such it's an example that won't work correctly via the Flash player and demonstrates some of the extra benefits of HTML 5 playback. Of course it's viewable on any HTML 5 compatible device not just iPads but I've used layout options and image size optimised for iPad portrait viewing.
