The 3-minute documentary video on Youtube is the '5-paragraph essay' of the 21st century.
Using video clips and still images of the Scratch game or SketchUp design project you did last week, edit a 2-3 minute video that chronicles your project, using Screencastify( https://www.screencastify.com/ ) or Loom( https://www.loom.com/ ), and share the link to the video.
Using ScreenCastify or Loom, create a 2-3 minute video screencast of the Scratch project or the SketchUp project you made in Week 2, showing the gameplay and underlying code(Scratch), or multiple Scenes(SketchUp), and a reflection on its success and future improvements.
ScreenCastify Chrome Extension: https://www.screencastify.com/
Submit a short document to Blackboard with your name, a link to the video, and a short description.
The Video should include:
Title and Author
Description of the computer code with voice over
A demonstration of gameplay or the different features in the SketchUp design
A reflection on its success and possible revisions
Test the link using a Chrome "incognito" window. If there are issues playing the video, you can upload it to Google Drive and share the link.

General Guidance:
Keep Videos short- 4 minutes maximum. If a large topic, divide into segments
Have an outline of what you are going to say, but avoid simply reading a script
OK to have small mishaps- keep it natural and conversational
Your students want to hear from you- and will prefer rougher content from you than highly polished content from a stranger.
