6 Getting started ITS are helping pilot ispring during 2015 and perpetual licences are available to staff who attend training and are willing to give feedback. ispring allows you to convert PowerPoint presentations into desktop recordings by adding audio narration, video narration, media and formative quizzes. Warning: Due to SCORM packages not working reliably in Learn.UQ (Blackboard) it is recommended that presentations be published in Flash + HTML5 format. This means that only formative quizzes can be included in your presentation i.e. marks will not be returned to Grade Centre (refer Publish an ispring presentation guide).
