The workshop will help participants to make informed choices when creating and managing multimedia files. Participants will learn the difference between a JPEG and GIF; when it would be better to save an audio recording as a WAV or MP3; and how to differentiate between a variety of audio (e.g., MP3, WAV, etc.), graphic (JPEG, GIF, PNG, etc.) and text formats (PDF, etc.). Upon completion of this hands-on workshop, a participant will be able to make informed choices.
