Wimba Voice Tools Support Network

Technical Information

Changes from 5.0 to 5.1

Voice Tools now offers 2 additional tools: Wimba Podcaster and Voice Presentation

  1. Wimba Podcaster - Instructors and students can easily
    1. Create podcasts up to 20 mins in length
    2. Upload .mp3, .wav and .spx files up to 10 MB in size, to use as podcasts
    3. Subscribe to these podcasts with 1 click
  2. Voice Presentation - Instructors can add audio and text messages alongside URLs, to annotate web content with voice.

Note: These new tools are available within Blackboard LS 6.3+ (after upgrading to the Building Block v 3.0) and the Wimba Voice Tools Manager. Clients with Blackboard LS (WebCT) CE 6 / Vista will be able to access these tools within the CMS once the new PowerLink is released, at the end of 2006.
