Chanin called to ask if I could assist an instructor that was trying to download a PowerPoint in Desire2Learn. It turns out that the PowerPoint very large in size. We suggested that she use a tool that could convert her PowerPoint into a web-friendly presentation. We suggested iSpring Free, a free PowerPoint to Flash converter program that integrates with Microsoft PowerPoint. It installs as a PowerPoint add-on. We also suggested that she save the PowerPoint presentation as an Adobe PDF document if she didn’t want to use iSpring, though iSpring would be the most interactive solution. We provided her instructions for how to download, use, and upload iSpring presentations into her D2L course and offered assistance to help if she needed it.
