Introduction:
The Bristol Biomedical Image Archive Learning and Teaching
project (BB-LT) presents a series of workshops for academics who wish to
learn more about using digital images to create learning and teaching
materials. Although the images and examples will have a biomedical focus,
the knowledge and skills gained will be applicable across disciplines.
Workshop One:
Image Copyright, Image Management & Using PowerPoint to Create Image-based
Tutorials:
Date: Thursday 12th July 2001. 10am-4pm.
Location: University of Bristol.
Fee: £60.
This workshop will look at several key issues involved in using images in
learning and teaching and focus on the use of images within Computer
Assisted Learning (CAL) tutorials created with PowerPoint.
Tutors: Vince Jones, Technical Advisory Service for Images (TASI);
Emeritus Professor John Bradfield (previously Professor of Histopathology,
University of Bristol); Skip Cox, BB-LT.
Topics: Copyright; Finding images; Formats; Basic image manipulation;
Basic image management; Incorporating images into PowerPoint tutorials.
The day will include practical exercises, hints and tips.
Objective: To enable the delegate to enhance his/her skills in creating
image-based learning and teaching resources through hands-on use of
materials created for BB-LT under the supervision of resource creators and
image experts.
Who should attend: Members of the UK HE biomedical community who wish to
incorporate images into their learning and teaching resources.
Prerequisites: Delegates should be registered with the Bristol BioMed
Image Archive before the day. BioMed registration is free for the UK HE
community through http://www.brisbio.ac.uk/. Delegates will also benefit
more from this workshop if they have some experience of creating
PowerPoint presentations and have viewed the PowerPoint Tutorial
"Understanding the Glomerulus" found at
http://www.brisbio.ac.uk/bblt/res.html.
Fees: £60 per workshop including lunch and tea/coffee.
Workshop 2
Using Images in Web-based Learning and Teaching Materials Created with
CALnet
Wednesday 18th July 2001. 10am-4pm. University of Bristol. £60
This workshop will look at some simple techniques for using the Web
authoring programme CALnet to create Web-based teaching materials with
digital images. Although the images and examples will have a biomedical
focus, the knowledge and skills gained will be applicable across
disciplines.
Tutors: Julian Cook, University of Bristol Learning Technology Support
Service (LTSS); Anthony Telford, Dental School, University of Bristol;
Skip Cox, BB-LT.
Topics: An introduction to choosing images; basic CALnet page
construction; incorporating image resources into basic Web pages;

and tips.
Objective: To enable the delegate to enhance his/her skills in creating
image-based learning and teaching resources through hands-on use of
materials created for BB-LT under the supervision of resource creators and
image experts.
Who should attend: Members of the UK HE biomedical community who wish to
incorporate images into their learning and teaching resources using CALnet
Prerequisites: Experience with a Web browser (e.g. Internet Explorer,
Netscape); Familiarity with Windows Explorer; Bristol BioMed Image Archive
