Notice: As of 2014 and for the forthcoming years, the publication frequency/periodicity of WSEAS Journals is adapted to the 'continuously updated' model. What this means is that instead of being separated into issues, new papers will be added on a continuous basis, allowing a more regular flow and shorter publication times. The papers will appear in reverse order, therefore the most recent one will be on top.



Making PDFs with Animation and Lecture Video for Beginner

AUTHORS: Taeil Yi

Download as PDF

ABSTRACT: Animations and visualized lecture video with audio have become most valuable contents in online instruction. Having the necessary skill sets to produce those contents is not an easy task, especially for instructors who are going to teach online course first time. This article shows detailed how-to tutorials for someone who is novice or never used LaTex before to produce PDFs including animation and paper-pencil style lecture videos with voice (using smartpen) as instructional tools.

KEYWORDS: Animation in pdf, IrfanView, ShareLaTex, smartpen note, LATEX
