Traditional writing assignments are appropriate for many types of assessments, but there is no law that says traditional writing assignments are required for all. <\/p>\n

In a Faculty Focus<\/a> article, Dr. John Orlando explains how student videos can be used to demonstrate learning. He writes,<\/p>\n

A good video assignment is to put students into small groups with instructions to make a video that teaches a key concept related to class. If done well, the video not only demonstrates students\u2019 understanding of the concept, but also serves as a resource that can be used by others.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Recent technologies have made video creation remarkably easy and video assignments can be shared in Brightspace. However, you should opt to have the students upload their video files to a video sharing site like YouTube and just provide a link to the video inside Brightspace. <\/p>\n

If you are interested in video assignments, you can read more in Dr. Orlando\u2019s \u201cAsk Your Students to Create Videos to Demonstrate Learning<\/a>\u201d article. <\/p>\n

Additionally, I prepared some instructions for recording, uploading, and sharing video on YouTube<\/a> that you should provide to your students to help them post a link to their video in Brightspace.<\/p>\n
