Walter, I took a look at the documentation, it seems to be an excellent tool!<br>However, I tried to run it in an XO-1 with release 703 and 656 but it didn't work :( (it never finishes lunching). Any suggestions?<br><br clear="all">
Saludos, <br>Pablo Flores<br>

The little documentation I have written so far is here:<br>

The key idea is to draw upon content that is in the Journal. So, for<br>
example, the description text in the Journal is used as the text on<br>
the slide. The preview image is used as the figure on the slide. The<br>
goal is to have the learner reflect upon their work, select important<br>
learning moments, and then create a narrative. But it can also be used<br>
as a more conventional presentation tool, e.g., I gave my talk at LCA<br>
-- a 40-minute lecture -- using it.<br>
<br>
enjoy.<br>
