There are a few options regarding the digitising of video and but there is no simple answer. Its a balance of cost, memory, and quality of final product. Here's a couple of options to at least consider. A very cheap solution is this device.

It is a video capture adaptor which will interface between video/PC. Being separate to the PC box, it will also interface directly between an ultrasound system and a laptop thus removing the image degradation that occurs when going to video tape. I have a colleague who really likes his. This is the only device of this type that I am aware of...(tho' there may be others)

Conversely, I have just purchased an Allinwonder.

As I write, I am having mixed success as the TV tuner seems to not like one of the memory components in the PC. Potentially however, this is a very clever card with good video editing software which will do just about everything you could ask of it. This card has more bells and whistles however as it is on my home computer, I cannot directly interface to the ultrasound system which is a big disadvantage.

Finally, If you are considering going down any of these paths. Do yourself a favour and trek down to the local Apple mac dealer and check out the new notebooks and the video hardware and software that these come with. It will give you some understanding of what is possible.

This little list may hopefully stimulate a little further discussion

Kathleen, sorry we use WebCT rather than Blackboard. Good luck

I am an educator and taking classes this summer at Arizona State University on how to develop distance education courses. In fact, if there are any on the list who know about Blackboard, that is the program we are using on our campus for all our distance education classes.

I will be happy to research this video to power point question if there are members on the list who need info. One thing I do know for certain, is the clip has to be converted to a digital format first.
