Lecturing Offline with Ubiquitous Presenter
In the long term, we plan to create a way that you can record your ink strokes in lecture with no Internet
connection, and upload them after class. You should let us know if this feature is
important to you.
For now you can accomplish offline lecturing via the following method.
- Before class, in a connected
environment, launch your lecture (double click your .CSD file) and go ahead and login as requested (selecting
a classroom and lecture). You can now let your machine hibernate and carry it around into non-connected
environments.
- Lecture -- you will note in the lower right hand corner of UP a growing number next to
"pending uploads" -- this is the number of ink strokes not sent to the server.
-
When you are finished lecturing DO NOT CLOSE UP (it will prompt
you with a warning if you have unsent ink strokes). Just carry your machine back to a connected
environment. When you unhibernate it, UP will start sending the ink saved up in class. When the
number in the lower right hand corner reaches zero, it is safe to close UP.
