Office Mix – PowerPoint, just betterOffice Mix – Powerpoint, net beter

As the need for a richer educational experience increases, so does the demand for software and apps encouraging and facilitating better and more interaction and collaboration between students and their educators.

Of course, we wouldn’t expect any less of Microsoft, who last year, launched Office Mix. According to Microsoft Office Mix was originally created to help educators implement new teaching methods, using the simplicity of PowerPoint. It brings “the same benefits to the professional e-Learning community, with support for SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Model), the industry standard for packaging of digital learning content.”

With functions like voice, video and digital ink, polls and interactive apps, insights and analytics and playback on any device, the PowerPoint add on promises to make is easy to turn slides “into interactive online lessons and presentations.”

Teachers can record themselves while presenting and create a video of their presentation. They can write on slides using “digital ink” and insert quizzes, polls, videos, screen captures, screen recordings and other elements. Students can view the interactive document on the Office Mix website.

For analysis after the presentation, statistics are available as well.

To use Office Mix, you will need Office 2013 or Office 365. You can now download it locally from our IT support website.

Soos die behoefte aan `n ryker leerondervinding toeneem, is daar ook `n beweging na sagteware, toepassings en webwerwe wat meer interaksie en samewerking tussen studente en opvoeders wil aanmoedig en bevorder.

Daarom is dit glad nie verbasend dat Microsoft `n voorloper in die veld is en verlede jaar hul eie poging, Office Mix, bekendgestel het nie. Volgens Microsoft is Office Mix ontwikkel om opvoeders by te staan met die implementering van nuwe leermetodes met `n eenvoudige sagtewarepakket soos PowerPoint. Dit bied dieselfde voordele aan die e-Leer samelewing as die industrie-standaard verpakking van digitale leerinhoud, met die hulp van SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Model)

Met funksies soos stem, video, digitale ink, meningsopnames en interaktiewe toepassings, insigte en analises en terugspeelfasiliteite op enige toestel, beloof hierdie PowerPoint byvoeging om gewone skyfies te verander in interaktiewe aanlyn-lesings en aanbiedings.

Onderwysers of lektore kan hulleself opneem terwyl hulle klas gee en `n video maak van die aanbieding. Hulle kan skryf op die skyfies deur middel van “digitale ink” en vasvrae, meningspeile, video, skermgrepe, skermopnames en ander elemente byvoeg. Studente kan weer op die beurt na die interaktiewe dokument op die Office Mix webwerf gaan kyk.

Analise van die aanbieding is ook moontlik aangesien statistieke beskikbaar gestel word deur Mix.

Om Office Mix te gebruik, het jy Office 2013 of Office 365 nodig. Jy kan dit nou plaaslik aflaai van IT se ondersteuningswebwerf
