Screen Capture of Mathematics Examples with Voice Over on a Tablet Laptop

This page can be reached via my homepage at http://www.math.umbc.edu/~gobbert.

Handout accompanying my presentation on this initiative at the Maryland Blackboard Users Group (MDBUG) meeting, held on October 02, 2007 at the UMBC Tech Center.
Example of a flash movie of a taped presentation of a Mathematics example. This example is on the computation of the determinant of a matrix and highlights the unique advantages of voice over explanations accompanying the writing and of hand-writing on a tablet laptop (as opposed to typeset formulas) for this purpose.
Notice the scroll bar at the bottom of the window; you might have to try twice to use it before it functions properly.
If you want to read about the context of the use of this in a hybrid course (part face-to-face, part on-line), you can find all my syllabi under Teaching in Past Semesters on my homepage; look for Math 221 in Summer 2006 and Summer 2007.
