KVCollections is an add-on feature within KVStudio. It enables content producers to assemble many KnowledgeVision presentations into a single gallery so that website visitors can browse them and select the presentation they want to view.
KnowledgeVision collections are managed from within KVStudio, our easy-to-use tool for creating, publishing, and managing online presentations.
Example: KnowledgeVision Collection at Work
Below is an example of a KnowledgeVision collection at work. Massachusetts’ Emerson Hospital uses KVCollections to organize its clinical lecture series into a continuing education resource for its medical community. Each lecture is videotaped, synchronized with its PowerPoint slides into a KnowledgeVision presentation, and included in a gallery of presentations on the hospital’s internal website along with the lecture’s title, description, and presenter’s name and title, and a thumbnail image.
The gallery is an interactive Adobe Flash widget that may be embedded on any web page. As new presentations are added in KVStudio, they are tagged and automatically added to the KVCollection gallery.
- Gallery of presentations – KVCollections organizes a company’s presentations into a gallery of available presentations, along with titles, descriptions, thumbnail images, and other data.
- Metadata fields for each presentation – KVStudio allows metadata to be stored for each KnowledgeVision presentation that may be used by KVCollections in building its galleries. A title, short description, long description, and thumbnail are stored with every presentation, along with information on categories and access restrictions.
- Easy browsing by category – The KVCollections gallery uses presentation metadata to organize presentations into categories to help viewers quickly find the presentation they want to watch.
- Quick and easy editing -Presentations may be added, deleted, moved, or reclassified in minutes by using the KVCollections management tool.
- Access control and permissions – KVCollections enables a gallery to display different presentation sets to different audiences. For example, a gallery might display more presentations on an internal website page than the same gallery on an external web page.
