Serif: Serif's are semi-structural details on the ends of some of the strokes that make up letters and symbols. A typeface that has serifs is called a serif typeface (or seriffed typeface). Some of the main classifications of Serif type are: Blackletter, Venetian, Garalde, Modern, Slab Serif, Transitional, and Informal. Fonts in each classfication share certain similiar characteristics including the shape or appearance of their serifs.

http://groovylibrarian.edublogs.org/2011/07/14/experiment-google-custom-search-engine/ Today I have been experimenting with Google Custom Search Engine . As a teacher librarian and educator I thought it was about time that I learnt to build a search engine that is customised with content, or a collection of sites/pages, on a particular topic(s) for a class/year level. What I liked is that the search engine can be shared by a a link or by embedding it onto a class blog or wiki. Building a customised search engine was EASY. 1.

knovio – Transforma powerpoint em apresentação com conteúdo sincronizado

Knovio é uma fantástica ferramenta que nos permite realizar apresentações usando o vídeo como protagonista. A ideia é poder mostrar um vídeo e uma apresentação de forma simultânea, sincronizando os momentos para que apareça o conteúdo adequado no momento que o desejamos. No exemplo que podemos ver em sua homepage um dos responsáveis pelo sistema aparece em um vídeo comentando suas funções ao mesmo tempo que uma apresentação online avança mostrando o texto que o apresentador anuncia. Veja abaixo, quando a apresentação já está carregada e podemos começar a gravar o vídeo: Um recurso fantástico para uso acadêmico e profissional, permitindo divulgar cursos, promover produtos, apresentar aplicações… uma infinidade de usos em diferentes categorias profissionais. No momento se encontra na fase beta fechada, mas pode solicitar convite em sua homepage (em alguns casos estão demorando menos de 1 hora para enviar). http://br.wwwhatsnew.com/2011/07/knovio-%e2%80%93-transforma-powerpoint-em-apresentacao-com-conteudo-sincronizado/
