First, Professor Nesson identified key portions of the oral argument that highlighted the issues for students to focus on. Portions of the oral argument recording were separated and provided to the PITF in audio files. Next, the PITF worked with Teaching, Learning & Curriculum group staff to identify appropriate images to accompany the arguments. The PITF then created PowerPoint slides of the images and inserted them into a video to accompany the recording. Finally, the video was embedded into a VoiceThread to allow interactive student commenting. The VoiceThread can be embedded into a course site, or used as a stand-alone learning object.
