SCENARIO
You have recently been hired to work in the information technology field. Your new manager has asked you to write a blog post describing a technological product, practice, or process that at least one group of employees will soon implement. Your manager has approved the blog post from Task 1, and now you will create a multimedia presentation that discusses the content in the blog post.
Note: You must submit a Panopto URL for this task.
REQUIREMENTS
Your submission must be your original work. No more than a combined total of 30% of the submission and no more than a 10% match to any one individual source can be directly quoted or closely paraphrased from sources, even if cited correctly. The similarity report that is provided when you submit your task can be used as a guide.
You must use the rubric to direct the creation of your submission because it provides detailed criteria that will be used to evaluate your work. Each requirement below may be evaluated by more than one rubric aspect. The rubric aspect titles may contain hyperlinks to relevant portions of the course.
Tasks may not be submitted as cloud links, such as links to Google Docs, Google Slides, OneDrive, etc., unless specified in the task requirements. All other submissions must be file types that are uploaded and submitted as attachments (e.g., .docx, .pdf, .ppt).
A. Create a multimedia presentation using presentation software (e.g., PowerPoint). The presentation should cover the main points from your blog article in Task 1?and include the following components:
1. a minimum of five slides, including a title slide
2. a minimum of two visual elements (e.g., photos, charts, graphs)
B. Create a narrated multimedia presentation recording based on the Task 1 blog post, using Panopto or another recording software that produces a video file you can upload to Panopto. The recording should not be a demonstration of the technological product, but a review of the same material required in the blog post. Ensure the recording meets the following criteria:
1. is 5–7 minutes long
2. uses the slides to enhance the presentation from part A
3. demonstrates effective delivery skills (e.g., speaks clearly, audibly, and at an appropriate pace)
Note:
• The video must feature your voice presenting the multimedia presentation. When recording, disable the webcam.
• You may use Panopto to record the multimedia presentation, or you may use another software of your choice and upload the resulting video file to the D339 Panopto Dropbox. Once the video file is uploaded to Panopto, copy the “view” link for the video to the submission area for Task 2.
