See page 5 for more information about what the video must demonstrate. There are many screen capture programs out there, I recommend Screencast-o-matic.

Each response has a maximum number of words. Sample responses are available at the bottom of this page.. The "Scoring Guidelines" document has the full criteria. You get a mark if you have an appropriate response for each criteria. Please note that some responses will have multiple criteria.

Staring on page 6 you can see the questions. They are similar to what you were asked in Assignment 2.
