Some of the NASS authors (Podium Presenters, Best Paper Presenters and Innovative Tech Presenters) have been asked to also add a audio or video narrated presentation to their Stack in Learning Toolbox, as well as adding the Powerpoint presentation itself. Other authors can of course also choose to do the same.

If you are one of these authors then we recommend following the instructions from Microsoft (see links below) to add a narration to your powerpoint presentation and then save that as a video file to add to your Learning Toolbox stack. These instructions cover multiple different versions of Powerpoint.

• Record a slideshow with narrations and timings (just follow the basic steps 1-5 in this guide) then:
  
• Turn your presentation into a video

Please note that Learning Toolbox does not support .PPSX files, so when you save your presentation as a video you should save it as an MP4 file, not as  a PPSX file.

Please also note that you should choose to save your video in 720p (or internet) resolution (not the 1040p default that Powerpoint offers) as this is the most suitable format for videos playing on the web.

Following these instructions will reduce the chance of hitting any upload issues due to the file size.

NASS 2022 is again using Learning Toolbox for the ePosters (including Headliners) and Innovative Technology Presentations at the conference.

Learning Toolbox allows you to create a Stack of material that can be used to present and share your work online and onsite. At the simplest level you can just add your presentation to your Stack, but the platform allows you to do much more.

Your Learning Toolbox Stack/ePoster should contain your presentation but can also contain additional materials such as videos, weblinks, papers and more.

Since you will upload your presentation to your Learning Toolbox Stack/ePoster then you will no longer need to upload your presentation to the NASS system.

The following dates are important:

• 17th May – Invitation emails sent to ePoster authors from Learning Toolbox (no_reply@ltb.io)
• 31st May at 11am CT – Webinar for authors. Zoom meeting link.
• 25th August DEADLINE – Finalise your stack (ePoster/presentation) and mark as ready to print and publish

The only NASS requirement for ePoster authors is that you include a PowerPoint presentation in your
Stack.

Required Content

• Authors must create and upload a PowerPoint presentation into their LTB Stack
• Your PowerPoint must have a minimum of 12 slides
• NASS will no longer create your title and disclosure slides. Disclosures will be readily available elsewhere. Please feel free to include your own title slide, which does not count towards your minimum slide limit.
• Vendor name, product names or logos should NOT appear anywhere in your Stack

Encouraged Content

If you want more eyes on your ePoster, you need to make it stand out! Luckily, your Learning Toolbox Stack is highly customizable and interactive. Take advantage of this by linking/uploading videos, weblinks, additional documents, link between your other ePosters, and much more! The guides on the Support Page (demo video, written guide, webinar recording) explain how to do this.

The live webinar was held on 31st May 2022. You can watch the recording of the webinar below. To see it in full-screen just click on the full screen icon at the end of the play bar.
