Giants shut out Tigers again in Game 3
OK, so even Bruce Bochy has to grudgingly admit that his San Francisco Giants are on a World Series roll.
''I'll say this: The club is playing well,'' the manager said.
Well enough to become the first team to throw consecutive Series shutouts in nearly a half-century.
Well enough to blank Miguel Cabrera and the Detroit Tigers 2-0 on a chilly Saturday night for a commanding 3-0 lead.
Well enough to win their franchise-record sixth straight postseason game and never trail in any in any of them.
''I think confidence is the biggest thing,'' newly found ace reliever Tim Lincecum said.
No team has ever blown such a huge margin in the World Series. And with the way Ryan Vogelsong, Lincecum and the Giants are pitching, it seemed unlikely the Tigers would even score a run, yet alone win a game.
Cabrera had the best chance to save the Tigers' season, but the Triple Crown winner popped up with the bases loaded in the fifth inning.
See what charity this represents, see the bow ties Ken has worn and learn about BowTie Cause.
Gregor Blanco hit an RBI triple and trotted home on Brandon Crawford's single in the second inning, and that was ample for the Giants. Timely hits combined with another dominant effort on the mound and sharp defense put them close to their second title in three years.
After playing a nearly perfect Game 3, the Giants will turn to Mr. Perfect Game himself - ace Matt Cain - to try for a sweep Sunday against Max Scherzer.
''We've got Matt Cain tomorrow and he's the guy to finish this,'' Blanco said.
At this rate, it appeared only a bailout by the San Francisco staff could help the Motor City.
Don't count on it. Switching to an AL park, chilly weather and a crowd of towel-waving fans ready to rock didn't slow `em down at all.
''Well, it's a good situation, but there's nothing been done yet,'' Bochy said. ''It's a number, just like I said about two. Now it's three. But that's not the Series.''
The Giants handed Detroit its first home loss in more than a month. The Tigers were coming off a sweep of the Yankees in the AL championship series in which they never trailed.
''We're not forcing anything, we're just not getting it done,'' Tigers star Prince Fielder said.
''Obviously, you never visualize this kind of thing happening,'' he said.
Vogelsong, a career journeyman whose path to the World Series took detour to Japan and Venezuela, improved to 3-0 with a 1.09 ERA in four starts this postseason.
''I knew my stuff was pretty good,'' Vogelsong said. ''I was really pumped up to be out there.''
Vogelsong induced two early double plays, then faced his stiffest test in the fifth.
The bases were loaded with one out when Vogelsong fanned rookie Quintin Berry. That brought up Cabrera, honored on the field before the game with an actual blue-and-gold crown for his Triple Crown accomplishments.
With the fans chanting ''M-V-P!'' and likely sensing the whole Series was riding on this at-bat, Vogelsong seemed completely calm while chewing gum. He won the matchup, too, getting an easy popup that prompted Cabrera to slam his bat to the ground and elicited cheers in the San Francisco dugout.
''I was just trying to make a pitch,'' Vogelsong said. ''And the way we're playing defense, really just trying to get him to put a ball in play somewhere because I had a good feeling we were going to catch it if he did.''
Lincecum took over with two outs in the sixth, and the two-time Cy Young Award winner looked as if he had been coming out of the bullpen his whole life and shut down the Tigers.
Closer Sergio Romo finished off the combined five-hitter with his second save of the Series.
Blanco punctuated the ninth inning with his latest fancy grab, a sprinting catch into foul territory in left field.
Combined with Madison Bumgarner's effort in Game 2, San Francisco threw the first consecutive shutouts in the Series since Baltimore in 1966, when Jim Palmer, Wally Bunker and Dave McNally did the trick to finish off the Dodgers.
''We couldn't get the killer hit or the killer blow,'' Tigers manager Jim Leyland said.
Shut out only twice all year, the Tigers once again looked lost at the plate. When Fielder struck out in the eighth, the fan favorite caused boos to bounce around Comerica Park. Big sluggers with teeny numbers, Cabrera and Fielder are a combined 3 for 19 against the Giants.
''It is what it is,'' Fielder said.
The fearsome Tigers have totaled a mere three runs and 15 hits while hitting .165 in three games, and were shut out twice in a row for the first time since April 2008.
Only one team in baseball history has overcome a 3-0 deficit in the postseason, with Boston doing it in the 2004 ALCS against the Yankees.
''Well, you don't really have to tell them anything. They can count,'' Leyland said. ''They're big guys, they know what the situation is.''
For the Tigers, it was the sixth straight Series loss dating to 2006 against St. Louis. They got a fine effort from pitcher Anibal Sanchez this time, but it wasn't enough against these Giants.
It was 47 degrees at gametime, a drop of 17 from Thursday night at AT&T Park, and the Tigers clearly knew this was their chance to pull back into the Series.
Soon enough, Game 3 took on a familiar look.
During the Giants' early two-run burst, Detroit's body language said all you needed to know about this Series. At one point in-between pitches, Cabrera put his hands on his hips at third base, shortstop Jhonny Peralta scuffed the dirt, second baseman Omar Infante turned his back to the infield, Fielder stared down at first.
A losing posture, plain and simple.
The Comerica crowd, so pumped earlier in the postseason, quickly fell silent. Desperate to cheer for anything, the fans hollered for a long, albeit routine, flyout by Delmon Young.
Detroit grounded into the most double plays in the majors this year, and two slick turns by Crawford at shortstop added to the Tigers' total.
Both DPs came with two on and one out, by Fielder in the first and the speedy rookie Berry in the third. Berry put both hands on his batting helmet as he zoomed well past the base, running out his frustration.
Working on 12 days' rest, Sanchez may have been the latest Detroit player to be caught in the Rust Belt, at least in the second inning. That's when he constantly overthrew his fastball and did not resemble the pitcher who had made two sharp starts this postseason.
The San Francisco hitters also were amply familiar with Sanchez. This was the fourth time he had matched up with Vogelsong in the last two years - Sanchez twice won duels, then lost a slugfest.
Hunter Pence, who scored one run and drove in the other during a 2-0 win in Game 2, drew a four-pitch walk to begin the second. It was a telling sign - Sanchez had not walked a right-handed batter since August.
Pence stole second, took third on a wild pitch and, with the Tigers' infield playing in, trotted home when Blanco tripled off the wall in right. Crawford looped an RBI single with two outs for a 2-0 lead, and Rick Porcello began warming up in the Detroit bullpen.
Notes: Cabrera has safely reached base in all 23 postseason games in his career. ... A few fans outside the ballpark climbed part of the way up the exterior gate to catch a glimpse of the action from left field before a stadium attendant inside told them to get down.

Obsessive-Compulsive (OCD) Therapy Groups Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is an anxiety disorder in which people have unwanted and repeated thoughts, feelings, ideas, sensations (obsessions), or behaviors that make them feel driven to do something (compulsions). It affects chidren, kids, teens and adults. Often the person carries out the behaviors to get rid of the obsessive thoughts, but this only provides temporary relief. Not performing the obsessive rituals can cause great anxiety. A person's level of OCD can be anywhere from mild to severe, but if severe and left untreated, it can destroy a person's capacity to function at work, at school or even to lead a comfortable existence in the home.

CHARLESTON, S.C. — Ruby-throated hummingbirds are migrating to North America weeks earlier than in decades past, and research indicates that higher temperatures in their winter habitat may be the reason.
Researchers say the early arrival could mean less food at nesting time for the tiny birds that feed on insect pests, help pollinate flowers and are popular with birdwatchers.
"Hummingbirds are charismatic, and they do things that fascinate us," said Ron Johnson, a scientist at Clemson University and one of the study's authors. "They fly backward, and they hover, and they will come to feeders at homes so people can easily see them."
Johnson and colleagues from Clemson; Taylor University in Upland, Ind.; and the University of Nebraska last month published an article on the migration of the hummingbirds in The Auk, the Journal of the American Ornithologists Union.
The birds, which weigh little more than a nickel, fly hundreds of miles over the Gulf of Mexico from their wintering grounds in Central American to arrive in North America. The research compared data on their first arrival times from 1890 to 1969 with arrival times during the past 15 years or so.
The comparison found that the birds are arriving in North America 12 to 18 days earlier than in the past.
Jason Courtier of Taylor University said the historical data on hummingbirds is based on government surveys from about 3,000 naturalists around the country who recorded the first spring arrival time of bird species over the decades.
About 6 million such records exist and are being scanned into computer databases by the North American Bird Phenology Program.
The research compared the historical documents with about 30,000 recent records on hummingbird arrivals. Scientists say the earlier arrival times could be problematic for hummingbirds, of which there are an estimated 7 million.
"With any bird that migrates over long distances, it's good to show up at the nesting grounds at a good time when you can set up a territory and build your nest and when the young come along there will be a lot of food available," Johnson said.
"You want to be there ideally right when the food becomes available at its peak so the young ones will have enough food."
Ecological systems work differently, Johnson said, and the hummingbirds' early arrival doesn't necessarily mean that the flowers and insects of their diet are available earlier.
Courtier said future research might focus on other species farmers needed for pollination of plants.
"We're wondering what the consequences are and are hummingbirds representative of other species farmers rely on for other pollination and biological pest control," he said.
James Van Remsen, the curator of birds at the Museum of Natural Science at Louisiana State University, said that while he had not seen the hummingbirds research, a wide body of literature shows other species of birds flying north earlier in both North America and Europe.
But he added that sometimes too much emphasis is placed on the earliest date a bird appears. It could reflect a couple of extremely early arrivals, he said.
"What really counts, biologically, is whether the peak period of migration has actually changed," Van Remsen said. "That is what would most likely affect population biology."

Sulfur Polymers Could Enable Long-Lasting, High-Capacity Batteries 131
from the holding-out-for-an-atomic-cell-phone dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
I saw an interesting graph in Aviation Week some time ago about the energy density of batteries versus the same mass of hydrocarbon fuel. The article was in relation to the idea of creating (plug-in) hybrid airliners.
The batteries used in the 787 store four orders of magnitude less energy than the equivalent mass of jet fuel.
I'm mentioning this because it looks like these batteries would bring the difference up to three orders of magnitude.
Still a ways to go before batteries can compete against hydrocarbon/fossil fuels.
There have been a lot of materials developments in battery designs over the last year or two. Some of them are providing 10x or better power storage with varying lifetimes. I'm really looking forward to seeing some of this make it into production. It would be better if they could couple improved batteries with some minimalist portable computer designs. People comfortable with Unix would get by with something with much lower specks than is typical today (assuming a minimalist interface), and the battery could probably last for hundreds of hours. I wouldn't mind that a bit.
Some of the other battery tech could be very useful for emergency situations.
This might be one to keep an eye on: A Battery That Runs On Sugar Could Soon Be Powering Your Electronics [businessinsider.com]
Have a look at molten-air batteries - http://phys.org/news/2013-09-m... [phys.org]
With an iron anode, the energy content is roughly the same as petrol - ~ 10000 watt-hours per liter. But the most you can hope for an a straight gasoline ICE is about 30%, whereas a battery is likely to be 2.5x as efficient. A carbon anode, which is more likely to be developed is nearly double that of iron so if this tech pans out and it looks to be quite affordable, it'll kill the demand for fossil fuels in almost all light-duty vehicles and make it possible to have hybrid long-haul trucks.
now, lets take a light plane for which I can find enough info to do this with, the jabiru j160D [jabiru.net.au] ok. so the fuel in it weighs (135L * 0.72kg/L) = 97.2kg. Now, the engine in it, the Jabiru 2200cc Aircraft Engine, weighs 62.8kg, and has a max power output of 60kw, and cruises at 75% power, so lets assume 50kw cruise power to account for takeoff and landing. So in total, engine and fuel weight 97.2 + 62.8 = 160kg
so lets rip that 160kg out and replace it with a EMRAX228 Brushless AC electric Motor with a 100kw power output and weighing in at 11.9kg, leaving us 148.1 kg worth of batteries, with a energy storage capacity of 148.1 * 0.66 = 97.746 kwh. so, at the cruise speed of 100knots = 185.2km/h, your looking at a range of (97.746kwh / 50kw) * 185.2km/h = 362km in about 2 hours.
The gasoline version can fly at the same speed for 8.5 hours. So, sure, the range is a quarter of the gasoline one, but you could ditch a passenger, chuck another 100kg of batteries in there and get that up to about 3.5 hours and 630km of range. Pretty damn good for a few dollars of electricity, negligible maintainence costs on a electric engine vs gasoline engine. sure as hell beats the $100+ youll pay for fuel alone for that same 3.5 hour trip.
What the world *really* needs is a good Automatic Bicycle Sharpener.

Fabrication of a two-level tumor bone repair biomaterial based on a rapid prototyping technique.
Key Laboratory for Advanced Materials Processing Technology, Ministry of Education & Center of Organ Manufacturing, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Tsinghua University, Beijing 100084, People's Republic of China.
Biofabrication (Impact Factor: 3.71). 06/2009; 1(2):025003. DOI: 10.1088/1758-5082/1/2/025003 Source: PubMed

ABSTRACT: Bone graft substitutes are commonly used to treat large bone defects, particularly if they can additionally act as a local delivery system for therapeutic agents capable of enhancing bone regeneration. In this study, composite scaffolds made of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) and tricalcium phosphate (TCP) called P/T were fabricated by a low-temperature rapid prototyping technique. In order to optimise the delivery system, two different approaches for loading either the phytomolecule icaritin (ICT) or bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) were developed for an in vivo efficacy study. One was an "incorporating approach" in which the growth factor was incorporated into the scaffold during fabrication, whereas the other was a "coating approach" in which the fabricated scaffold was immersed into a preparative solution containing the growth factor. Scaffolds incorporating these growth factors were termed P/T/ICT and P/T/BMP-2, while scaffolds that had these growth factors coated on to them were named, respectively, P/T + ICT and P/T + BMP-2. A P/T scaffold without any loading was used as the control. The bone regeneration effect of these scaffolds was compared in an ulnar bone defect model in rabbits. Bone regeneration and angiogenesis was evaluated by high-resolution peripheral quantitative computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging postimplantation. Bone regeneration was better with the P/T/ICT scaffolds with an 83.8% improvement compared with the control, and a 72.0% improvement compared with the P/T/BMP-2 treatment. Although the P/T + BMP-2 scaffold demonstrated, as expected, the best overall bone regeneration, the P/T scaffold with incorporated ICT was shown to be an innovative and cost-effective bioactive scaffold which also significantly enhanced bone regeneration with the potential to be validated for orthopaedic applications.Journal of Orthopaedic Translation. 04/2014; 2(2):91–104. - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Advances introduced by additive manufacturing have significantly improved the ability to tailor scaffolds architecture, enhancing the control over microstructural features. This has led to a growing interest in the development of innovative scaffold designs, as testified by the increasing amount of research activities devoted to the understanding of the correlation between scaffold topological features and its resulting properties, in order to find architectures capable to optimally trade-off between often conflicting requirements (such as the biological and the mechanical ones). Main aim of this article is to provide a review and propose a classification of existing methodologies for scaffold design and optimization in order to address key issues and help in deciphering the complex link between design criteria and resulting scaffold properties.Acta biomaterialia 10/2013; · 5.68 Impact Factor - [Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Limitations associated with the study of cancer biology in vitro, including a lack of extracellular matrix, have prompted an interest in analysing the behaviour of tumour cells in a three-dimensional environment. Such model systems can be used to better understand malignancy and metastasis and a cancer's response to therapies. We review the materials that have been used in such models to date, including their fabrication techniques and the results from their study in cancer. Despite the variety of materials available, obstacles remain to perfecting an in vitro model system and we outline some of the challenges yet to be overcome.Journal of Materials Science 09/2014; 49(17). · 2.31 Impact Factor

Beringea sells Eagle Rock Entertainment
Farmington Hills-based Beringea LLC, a private-equity and venture capital firm, announced today that its British arm, Beringea LLP, has sold its Eagle Rock Entertainment portfolio company to Santa Monica, Calif.-based Universal Music Group for an undisclosed sum.
Beringea first invested in London-based Eagle Rock, the largest producer and distributor of music programming for DVD, Blu-ray, TV and digital media globally, in May 2007. Its catalog includes music by the Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd, the Who, Queen, the Doors, Jeff Beck, U2, Peter Gabriel, Paul McCartney and Ozzy Osbourne. It has offices in London, New York, Toronto, Paris and Hamburg.
"Eagle Rock's management team represents unrivaled industry expertise and has built a business with consistent top and bottom-line growth. We wish the team well in the future and thank them for their success," said Karen McCormick, a partner at Beringea, in a news release.
In conjunction with the sale of Eagle Rock Entertainment, Eagle-i Music Ltd., a music publisher, has been spun out as a separately owned and operated company, in which the Beringea LLP funds continue to hold an interest.
In March, Beringea was in the news for its $3 million investment in the Detroit Institute of Music Education, a startup founded by three veterans of the British music scene, Kevin Nixon, Sarah Clayman and Bruce Dickinson.
They founded the Brighton Institute of Modern Music in England in 2001 and opened a campus in Bristol in 2008. They sold the institute in 2012. It now includes campuses in London; Manchester, England; and Dublin.
The school has pop-up space in the lobby of one of Dan Gilbert's buildings in downtown Detroit, at 1520 Woodward Ave., which will serve as a temporary admissions office and performance space. The college will formally open in September, when renovations are complete on the historic Bamlet Building, which was built in 1896 and is owned by Gilbert's Bedrock Real Estate Services.

Castle Crashers Hear the music, watch the spoofs and tributes!
Author Comments
The long awaited addition to the "C. Crashing" series is finally here! The Castle Crashers must save the princess from the Conehead Groom, who is forcing her to marry him! Or is he? Watch to find out!
I can't believe this is finally done, I started working on the script of this thing MONTHS ago, and school got in the middle so it took forever to finish, but I'm quite pleased with how it turned out. One thing to note, though, is that my original intentions were to also include the "Parade" level, but the flash dragged for too long, and the sound kept going off sync as it played (I'll make a news post about that at some point) so I decided to only include the "Wedding Crash" level. Still, the file size is quite large, but please be patient, I promise it will be worth it.
In case you're confused with what the flash is about: Castle Crashers is an xbla and psn game, in one of the levels, you have to save a princess who is forced to marry, but to give the flash a twist, instead of that, I made it so that the princess actually wanted to get married, but the Castle Crashers didn't know that. Problems ensure!
Well, I hope you enjoy the flash. When you're done watching it you may want to check out the other C. Crashing animations, I put links in the main menu. And also, if you liked it, recommending it for the Castle Crashers collection would be very nice of you. With nothing more to say, dim the lights, bring some snacks and enjoy the movie!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
That was awesome!
I think this is the best CC flash yet. (btw did anyone else besides me notice derpy whooves?)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
best frinde?
i thought the cyclops was that dudes father 0_0 but anyway......nice parody of castel crashers i really enjoyed it kkep up the good work cant wait for part 2 ^_^
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Awesome, you've really improved from the first ones! This is fucking great work and i cant wait to see the next one.

Enrollment drops by 3 percent at SUNY Fredonia
- Staff Buffalo Business First
Enrollment has declined 3.2 percent at SUNY Fredonia.
The university's vice president for student affairs, David Herman, released the final figures yesterday, according to the Dunkirk-Fredonia Observer.
This year's enrollment at SUNY Fredonia is 5,545, including 5,251 undergraduates and 294 graduate students.
That's a decrease of 185 students from a year ago.
"For the last several years the Western New York high school population has been declining," said Herman. "You see it on the news where schools are learning they have surplus space, and that's expected to continue for several more years. We've also graduated two large classes, both in the last two years. This has led to a whole series of things that we are going to have to address, but we were aware this was going to be a difficult year."

MSI Big Bang XPower II (Intel X79) Motherboard Review - Memory Benchmarks
We get around to testing the Big Bang XPower II motherboard from MSI and see if it's something you'll want for your next system.AIDA64
Version and / or Patch Used: 1.00.1035BETA
Developer Homepage: http://www.aida64.com
Product Homepage: http://www.AIDA64.com
Replacing Everest in our labs is AIDA64. This new testing suite is from the core development team from Lavalys and continues that tradition. The guys have thrown in better support for multithreaded CPUs as well as full 64 bit support. We use this to test memory and HDDs for now, but may find ourselves opening this up to other areas of the motherboard.
In typical X79 fashion we see Quad Channel memory performance lag behind the Z68 Dual Channel Performance. Overclocking does yield a nice performance gain, but it's still behind the Z68 board running at stock.
If you want to find out more about Quad Channel / Dual Channel memory performance, I'd recommend you read our Intel X79 Quad Channel and Z68 Dual Channel Memory Performance Analysis.

]]>The post Solving Your Development Issues in the Adobe Captivate Community appeared first on eLearning Brothers.
]]>Did you know each major eLearning authoring tool has a thriving community of eLearning developers constantly asking and answering questions about your burning development issues? Even if there is a small chance you are the only one on the entire planet that has a specific development issue, why aren't you using asking the community? Chances are the community will have an answer for you. Asking the community can also make it helpful for the next person that comes along with the same problem.
In this post, you'll learn how to solve your development issues using the Adobe Captivate Community.
Before you start using the Adobe Community, I suggest you create an Adobe account profile for the community. This makes it easier when you ask questions in the community, and you can receive answers as notifications in your inbox.
This is by far one of my favorite tips. Once you are in the Adobe Captivate Community, you can search tons of questions being answered that Google may not have offered you. All you need to do is ask a question, and it will reveal an auto-populated list of similar questions asked by the community. If you don't see your answer, notice there is a "search all results in Adobe Captivate" option. When you click on this option, you'll find tons search options at your fingertips.
Note: Searching for your solution with Google is also very efficient.
Once you are a member of the Adobe Captivate Community, typing a question is super easy. Just type in your question and push the "Ask Now" button. Now you just wait for the community to respond. I've got most of my answers within a few hours however, it may take as long as 24 hours to get a response.
Note: Whenever you have a question that you would like answered, it's critical that you post that question in a structured and detailed way so someone can follow your issue. Describe as accurately as possible what you did, what steps you took, what happened at what moment and what you did to try to resolve it. Including a screenshot may be very helpful as well. When you follow this process, the community can help answer your question as quickly as possible.
When you're in the Adobe Captivate Community modified search, you can find tons of search options. If you are trying solve a development issue, I recommend clicking the radio button for "Resolved" content. By doing this, you will be able to ensure all the queries will have an answer. Otherwise, when you open a discussion, you will see at the top, some with answers and some without answers.
Note: You can even search other Adobe Communities. Keep in mind there are other Adobe Captivate sub-communities out there which will be used in your search. Here is a short list with a link if you would like to visit individual sub-communities:

]]>The post Project Management & eLearning Timeline Pitfalls — Part 2 appeared first on eLearning Brothers.
]]>As a project manager, has this ever happened to you? You have an exciting project to manage. The kick-off meeting went great. The client is wonderfully engaged. The budget is perfect for the scope. The project plan and timeline fit your company like a glove. You have the perfect resources lined up to execute a great course module. Everything looks great.
But now, two months have now gone by and the project is behind schedule, and missing milestones on the timeline. Even more worrisome, the project is in danger of being over budget. What happened?
Your main contact – Is your contact the subject matter expert (SME)? What is your contact's experience in eLearning? Is your contact mainly responsible for providing eLearning to their organization or is your contact someone tasked with securing a course module with no experience? It is important to get to know the client and where they fit in their organization as you build a relationship with them.
Client processes – Is there a good understanding of the client's internal processes? Is your main contact the decision maker? Who reviews and approves the various deliverables? Is it one person or a committee? It is vital to have a clear picture and understanding of your client's internal approval processes and build that process within the timeline.
Client provided content – Do you have everything you need from the client? Are the files and provided content current? If your client needs to update content and/or files during the project, it slows down the instructional design and development. The next thing you know, the timeline is irrelevant. It also adds to scope and budget creep.
Scope and budget creep – Yeah, this can be creepy. It can sneak up on you before you realize it. All the little requests to change this or add that little extra bit of content during either the instructional design or development phases takes time and resources. In addition, the "Can we make it do this?" requests may seem reasonable but will add time to the project.
Statement of Work – Do you have a detailed scope to from which to work? Does the scope spell out the development tools to be used or what platforms and browsers the module is to be presented on? Did you totally review with the client the phases of work and what is and is not permitted during those processes? Do you caution the client about delays in approval or when they try to add or change content? Sometimes it is hard to say no to clients when little requests that are outside the scope seem so reasonable and we want to please them.
If you're a Project manager, you've had things not go as planned. But you enjoy working with your client and getting to know them and their organization. You get great satisfaction from managing the process and helping your team solve issues while producing great results for your client. The work is challenging, but it is also very rewarding.
Stay tuned for the next, Project Management & eLearning Timelines – Part 3.

]]>The post Detecting Mobile Platforms the Smart Way for Lectora appeared first on eLearning Brothers.
]]>Lectora has some great features to take learning off the desktop and on the road, such as dynamic templates for mobile layout, but one of the more interesting ways is the ability to check the platform type as a condition for an action.
One of the main reasons to use this condition is that mobile devices forbid automatic playing of audio or video. This makes sense; you don't want to use data without consent. Checking for platform "iPad" would let you show a button overlay to play the media so the user would have to click it to start the page.
Unfortunately, the platform "iPad" does not cover all mobile devices. In fact, there are other types such as iPhone, or Android that need to be accounted for, and there may be more in the future! For instance, the Samsung Galaxy Android OS platform type is "linux armv7I." If you want to check the platform type for any device, you can go to this address: http://www.transitionweb.co.uk/mobile/index.html
But rather than compile a list of mobile types to check for, a better way would be to check for the reverse, whether the platform is a desktop. The platform types containing "Mac" and "Win" are pretty stable ("MacIntel" and "Win 32″ are the full names), so if you determine those are present, you can present the page with autoplay of media. Just a note about Linux; one test showed the Linux desktop OS type as "Linux x86_64." Since the platform type is case sensitive, "Linux" should be differentiated from the Android "linux," but another way to check for this version of Linux would be a condition of "contains x86," or "contains 64." Testing may be required to cover all the potential Linux types for your students.
In this example, I've created a variable called "checkPlatform." An action on show of page then has three conditions to check whether "Platform" includes "Mac," "Win," or "x86″ and if present, sets the variable to "1," and if not, sets it to "0." Since this is a top-level action, the platform type is checked each time a page is loaded, and additional platform types can be added as needed in just this one place.
On each page, there is a group with an overlay that includes a PNG to shade the content, and a button with two actions, one to play the audio, the other to hide the group. A page-level action shows the audio overlay only if "checkPlatform" is set to "0."
Now the course is ready for whatever mobile platform comes its way!

]]>The post Corporate eLearning vs Higher Ed. eLearning appeared first on eLearning Brothers.
]]>Guest post by Marie S. Lewandowski. Marie is a Sr. Instructional Designer, eLearning Consultant, Feature & Technical Writer.
Corporate eLearning and Academic eLearning have many overlaps and similarities. Corporate eLearning is commonly conducted by the human resources department or a training department, to train the workers to do specific tasks in accordance to corporate policies and safety standards. The corporate course may be a single course or part of a series of courses for a job task or to improve the workers knowledge and increase productivity.
In contrast, academic eLearning is taught by a Faculty member to teach students a course topic within an academic program. The individual course is part of a larger degree program. Community colleges and medical eLearning are closely convergence of learning integrated into workforce training. The corporate trainer and the faculty member both have to be trained on how to teach in the learning management system and how to manage the administration of enrollment, learner feedback and revisions. However, once this is accomplished eLearning can be self-paced and driven by the learner.
Instructional Design for Corporate and Academic Online Training
The universal role of instructional design, is to determine the overarching learning outcomes of the online course and to align each of the module objectives to that end goal, this is where eLearning is the same for all training initiatives, corporate or academic training.
Here is a consistent theme of requirements for a corporate instructional design job posting:
"Experience with full cycle ADDIE or other ID models and able to design and develop content according to established Instructional design theory/methodology and the four levels of evaluation."
The main issue in higher education eLearning training is to provide the faculty member with training in how to use the tools in the learning management system, discussions, assignments, grade book management and providing enough time to teach and facilitate the online course. The course has to meet standards of quality due to the high cost of the course to the student.
In corporate eLearning, time is an important factor to the bottom line. Producing eLearning courses quickly, efficiently and meeting corporate standards and policies. Corporate eLearning will also seek to review and revise courses due to changes in safety standards, for example, medical or airline employee training.
1. Academic eLearning |
2. Corporate eLearning |
Goals and Objectives | Project-based, team-based, research-based, retention of knowledge | Rigorous corporate tracking requirements, self-paced, performance-based |
Instructional Goals | Online courses save the college money and provide wider access to students at a lower cost. Saves the student time and money | Train employee to do specific tasks or a wide range of tasks. Employee has flexible access to training deliverable. Saves the manager and company time and money |
In Conclusion
The instructional design process is the same across all eLearning deliverables whether corporate or higher education. Both can truly benefit from collaboration of "best practices" to improve online course deliverables. A model for instructional design that both corporate and Higher Ed. can agree is the constructivist model, which is based on the idea that learning is derived from the student's experiences, and that the instructor facilitates learning. This places the responsibility of learning in individual student driven outcomes. However, an eLearning process has to be followed and is the core foundation of successful Higher Ed. or Corporate eLearning.

]]>One of the advantages of Lectora, in my opinion, is that you can tackle any task numerous ways. Whether it's by creating an action group or triggering actions "OnShow." Sometimes it is beneficial to try to think outside the box and attempt to approach a task differently than you typically do. Lectora gives you ample opportunity do this.
Recently I developed a Lectora interaction utilizing the "Drag and Drop" question. However the purpose of the interaction was to reveal information, not really to test the user. Using the Lectora Drag and Drop question functionality gave me some unique opportunities to approach a typical "Click to Reveal" interaction differently. The idea is that of a puzzle. The learner drags a puzzle piece to the fitting empty spot and receives a piece of information. If they drop the puzzle piece in the wrong spot, it simply resets the question and places the piece in its original location. So there's not really a wrong way to do it.
Approaching a "reveal information" interaction this way provides a bit more interactivity for the learner instead of just selecting a button. This is how I did it:
(Watch video on YouTube.)
How have you thought outside the box to accomplish similar tasks in your eLearning? Leave your comments below.

]]>The post How to Make an Awesome Animated Button in Articulate Storyline 2 appeared first on eLearning Brothers.
]]>A while back I saw a cool animated button online. This button was extra cool because the words animated to the left and an arrow appeared on the right. I thought, "I wish Articulate Storyline could do that." It got me thinking, "Wait, can it?"
After experimenting a while, I developed something similar to what I saw. Check out the video below to see what I am talking about:
Step 1:
Draw a rectangle for the button.
Step 2:
Insert Text as a separate box. Place it directly under the rectangle box.
Create an L-Shape and place it UNDER the rectangle box.
Step 4:
Add a variable. We will be using it to help animate. I have named my file eLB_GetStartedBtnHover, you are free to name it whatever you want.
Now that you have all the shapes for this button, it's time to have some fun. Let's start with the rectangle. Give it a hover state. Make the hover state a little bigger than the original state. This is important! If you don't and you place your cursor right over the edge it hovers on and off. This is not pretty. So make it at least a little bigger to make sure this doesn't happen. Make it big enough to add the L-shape later.
Step 6:
Select the L-shape and change the state to hidden.
Step 7:
Add animation. This step we will be using the animation menu.
You may also have noticed I changed the triggers to click and right click in the video for testing purposes. I would suggest you spend more time here than you think you need to make sure you get it right.
Now that we have our first triggers let's change how they should act. We are going to use the variable created earlier. Select the top trigger. It should say something like "Text Box 1 – Move Textbox 1 – 'Let's Go!' on Line Motion Path 1 when timeline starts." Change this to "Move Let's Go!" on Line Motion Path 1. When eLB_GetStartedBtnHover changes if eLB_GetStartedBtnHover is equal to True.
Select the rectangle and add the following triggers:
Debugging is a good practice. Before testing it out let's add a trigger to the screen. Insert a text box, then click the reference link found in the Insert menu, select the trigger we are debugging. Now preview the slide.
If something went wrong, that is okay! Now you'll have a variable to help you figure out what is going on. If the variable does work, and the triggers are correct, then the problem lies with the animation section. If the variable doesn't work, make sure you check what it is in the trigger. Make sure it's the rectangle and that the rectangle is on the top like I explained in steps 1-3.
I have tried to use a hotspot, rather than have the rectangle on top. But it doesn't restore when you hover off. If your button has color, make a 2nd rectangle that is completely transparent and use that as a hotspot.
For some reason, creating a dynamic button like this doesn't work inside a layer, or I haven't had luck doing it in a layer. It has to be on the base layer.
Also, I have included the .story file so you can tweak it yourself. It has a few different slides you can deconstruct. Enjoy!
