The GuideVu Onscreen Tutorials

The GuideVu Onscreen Tutorials provide graphical podcasts currently for Flash 8, DreamWeaver 8, Microsoft Excel 2003/2004 and Microsoft Access 2003, with other software types to be available during 2008. Evaluation Demo Packs can be downloaded for each software type (see the Demo Packs section below).

The podcasts can be opened with QuickTime Player or Windows Media Player and placed at the corner of the Flash, DreamWeaver, Excel or Access screens. The podcasts can also be run from a MP3 player capable of displaying graphics or video, placed next to the computer. No printing of the tutorials is neceesary.


Using the Podcasts

Students play 30 seconds or so of the podcast, pause it, carry out the activities in Flash DreamWeaver, Excel or Access, return to the podcast, watch the next 30 seconds or so, and so on. Hundreds of zoomed screen shots guide students through the software activities and Assignments are provided at the end of each podcast..

Each podcast is matched to chapters of the available PDF documents allowing for student choice in the delivery format. The podcasts can also be placed on the school’s web site, on student’s MP3 players or laptops, for use outside school hours.

Most of the podcasts run for 15-20 minutes and are around 10-20 MB in size.
