Resource Types

Flexible Learning Team can work with other ETS media specialists to help you plan, design, test, and/or produce electronic resource.

Electronic resources we can make include:

Diagrams, tables, or photos - Different ways to visually convey information: can involve 'cleaning up' existing resources or making new ones.
Web interactions or animations - Illustrate processes with moving diagrams, create simulations of calculations, implement drag and drop activities, self checking tests, using rollovers and other image swapping behaviours, etc.
Multimedia packages - Packaged multimedia exercises and training modules are usually self contained on a web site or CD. They could last from a minute to a number of hours depending on what is being taught, and may require students to obtain additional software (usually a free plug in). They can be time consuming to design, develop and test.
Voiceovers - These may be useful to explain online animations, explain video illustrations, bridge discrete sections of a lecture video, etc. The lecturer does not always have to be the person recorded but must assist with the text and deciding where voiceovers are needed.
Video/audio capture and editing- Recording of particular experiments, instances of exemplary practice, stimulus cases etc can be particularly useful for students. Recordings of lectures is not a particularly efficient way to learn and will usually require editing (where the lecturer would need to sit with technical staff to identify the significant content from areas that can be cut and discuss the viability of re-sequencing video or audio resources).

Videostreaming files - digital files may be need further work before being sent to the Kensington UNSW videostreaming server. We will provide you with a URL to paste into a website to enable students to view the materials.
