Overview of FORMATTING & EDITING OPTIONS
- Wiki text blocks like this one
- HTML blocks that can contain most styles of HTML content
- Image files of web displayable format (GIF, PNG, JPEG, etc.)
- MP3 audio files
- Zip file archives- including the ability to access individual files in an archive
- Video upload and capture with streaming playback using VIDITalk
| Content Type | Features | Limitations |
|---|---|---|
| Text block | styled text, attached and inserted mages, formatting, inserted attachments and links | Complex tables |
| HTML | Anything you can do in HTML, including style sheets, JavaScript (with limitations for cross site scripting) etc. | Browser issues in HTML and JS support |
| Image | Size, captions | Only browser displayable formats (PNG, GIF, JPEG, etc.) No TIFF or SVG support for display. |
| Flash/SWF | Plays in interface or in its own window | Almost no limitations for pure SWF files, but the client needs a plug-in |
| Audio | Supports playback in site for MP3 files | No embedded player for other formats (OGG, Windows Media, AAC etc.) |
| Video | Uploaded and embedded playback of almost any video format and CODEC, much like YouTube; downloadable files | Some practical file size limitations (200MB+ is problematic) |
| ZIP Archives | Uploaded SCORM archives, or any file archive; access individual files or launch the archive in its own window using a start file | Some practical file size limitations (200MB+ is problematic); some archives can contain files with bad encoding |

Athabasca University Mobile ESL Example
Description:This is an example from a course in English grammar. It is divided into eighty-six sections. This course tests your knowledge of English grammar and, more importantly, it gives you practice in using your knowledge to make correct and appropriate sentences. When you do the exercises, you will see that grammar is not just a game. Grammar has meaning - if you change some of the grammar in a sentence, you also change its meaning.
