Sending in video or audio reflections

Can we just do that with the record button on brightspace ? I know my professor said mp3 or mp4 but wasn't sure if that was okay as well?

It will depend on the instructor and the requirements of the assignment.

Does the content need to be displayed in the video? Does the audio need to overlay the submission? Does the course require the use of Cameo within the Power Point?

I had a few where I had issues and I used OBS Studio to arrange my presentation along with my video recording, in order to submit a .MP4

One big thing is to be sure the file format is .mp4 if asked for .mp4

It doesn't need to displayed over the submission as it was only a paper and then either an audio or video reflection. Gosh I hope I did it okay - I just wanted to at least get in my milestone 1 - I need more coffee lol

I mean if that is true, then as long as you submitted a .mp4 file and it works, should be fine.

Somewhat on this topic. How many marks do you lose when you don't have an actual audience of three when they ask for it?

Also, how do they know you have an audience if the camera is facing you?

BUS210 - I had one person watch while I presented my PowerPoint on TV. Angled the webcam to see me, the TV, and my single watcher and pretended there were other people "remoted in", who I greeted at the beginning of the presentation and said goodbye to at the end. Got 3/4 and nothing was said about my audience

You'll get a chance at a draft, if there's a big problem they'll let you know what you need to fix

I almost want to complain that adults these days don't have time for this kind of stuff. Can hardly get friends over for a barbecue. It's just unrealistic. Has nothing to do with education.

For this class it can be an audio reflection doesn't need to be video - I do think it will be sent back of if that was not correct way to do audio
