  • Publication number: 20140113268
    Abstract: A rehearsal mode is used to rehearse presentations. While in rehearsal mode, a time spent rehearsing each portion of the presentation (e.g. each slide) is determined. A user may also tag a portion of the presentation during the rehearsal. When the user finishes the rehearsal, an interactive performance assessment for the rehearsal is displayed. The performance assessment visually displays a graphical indicator (e.g. a graphical bar) for each of the portions of the presentation that includes a time spent on each portion. A user may interact with the performance assessment. For example, a user may drill down into the performance assessment and show more detail, set a time target for a portion of the presentation, and the like. When the user rehearses the presentation, the time targets are used to provide user feedback (e.g. haptic/visual) to indicate if more time is spent on the slide than the user set.

  • Publication number: 20140109012
    Abstract: An overview mode is used to navigate content. While in the overview mode, content is displayed as thumbnails such that a user may more easily locate content. A document map may also be displayed with a display of thumbnails while in the overview mode. The document map displays an outline of the content that includes selectable elements to assist in navigating the content. The number of thumbnails displayed may change while in the overview mode (e.g. receiving a pinch/stretch gesture). The thumbnails displayed may also be adjusted (e.g. up/down/left/right) using gestures (e.g. drag, swipe . . . ). A drill down view displays an expanded view of content on a thumbnail in response to receiving a drill down instruction (e.g. a tap and hold gesture on a thumbnail). A thumbnail may also be selected (e.g. tapped) to return to the original viewing mode and to display the content of the selected thumbnail.
