I created a Powerpoint presentation for a group of learners and wanted to get it to them before the workshop/ Lecture, so they could maximise workshop time. I came a cropper as the file was too big. It had links to Youtube, and beautiful clear high quality images. The requirement was to get it on Moodle. This was difficult to achieve at first, because there is a limit of 30mb to each file. To over come this it is necessary to manipulate the image resolution using Photoshop (PS).
The steps are on PS; File-Open-Choose a large photo. Image- Image size-select 72 dpi in Resolution box. File- Save As-ppname image.jpeg. Save into a New folder (photos forPowerpoint). With the omission of two images and this reduction process The file was reduced from 31mb down to 18mb. This then uploaded successfully thus enabling Learners to access information that was approved, thus avoiding the hassle of sifting trough much distracting info. on the web.
Very useful tips here
