Need a favor Kris.
Alas, in my fog of website work, I’m noticing that I didn’t really check out fully the materials you already created on Dynamic Learning Plan that are now located in PSA Kitchen Menu, under Trials. There’s the Keynote in PDF file format, and the Word Doc in HTML as well as in Docx. Lots of good stuff in there, and I need to really study it which I abashedly haven’t yet.
I think I got distracted by the whole issue of what file formats we would/could support on our site and how we would do that, rather than studying your work itself. My apologies…as I certainly can’t give any “notes” on something I haven’t studied.
And I’m actually still working on that issue of what’s the best way to support a Keynote to get it to open either embedded in our PSA web pages, or opening in a new window where the slideshow is active in either Keynote file format, or if necessary PPT.
To aid me in that work, would you see if you have the Dynamic Learning Plan keynote in it’s original .key file format? If so, can you send it to me via email, or DropBox? I want to open it on my desktop in the Keynote app, and explore how to embed it onto our webpage and/or open in new window that’s an active Keynote slide player, and or get it to work on Slideshare that we would then embed into our webpage.
(also hoping to get a Word Doc to open directly in a new window rather than downloading to our computer)
(Slideshare previously supported keynote file formats natively, then recently were having an issue and said they weren’t supporting keynote files natively. We’ll see if that’s really going to get fixed, or not)
TIA Kris.
I created the DLP in iBook and PDF, not Keynote. I created the SLC in Keynote, PDF, and Quicktime. So far, that is all I have done with the core concepts.
Geeze, I completely forgot about the SLC stuff you posted. I remember now doing testing on file formats but not really registering the content.
Taking a quick look at SLC today, the QT file, though embedded in a new window, doesn’t work right for me. It shows what appears to be the first “slide”, and the jitters when trying to show the other slides… The pdf works fine.
I looked through our email, and I think you indicate that you didn’t upload the SLC in keynote file format to PSA website. Would you send that to me in keynote file format?
Would you search around and if you can find send me the iBook file for DLP?
Some brain farts will occur is the lesson here, and though efforts are made, stuff will still get screwed up or overlooked…this won’t be the last. Hopefully nothing we can’t fix later. At least I keep backing up. I think I’ll go do that again too, right now.

I was unable to email the files so you wanted so I added them to Dropbox PSA2012. The files are: DLP3 and PSA SLC .
Thanks. Good ole DropBox…still works as I got them just now.
Just successfully uploaded both to our media library to have them there for experiment…was able to add the iBook Author file format .iba to our acceptable media library formats.
I’ll be working on these tomorrow…good for learning how to use at PSA site, but also good practice for me in how to do Keynote and iBook.
And BTW, I left the SLC Quicktime .mov file open in a tab in Safari, and as you said, it loads slowly. As in glacially. But eventually it got there, and now works with a click from page to page. Will have to investigate what part of the process of loading it takes so long.
I uploaded my SLC in .ppt form to the media library:

Another way to move files around instead of dropbox. Although, if you click on the link you get a download.
