Instructions:

Part 1:

Read through the questions below. Record a video, 60 seconds minimum, in response to one or more of the questions below that interest you. Also, please provide your first name on the video, mention OU's Biology 1003 course, and tell which week's assignment it is.

Technical details: You should be able to record this video on a smartphone, iPad, digital camera, or webcam. If you need equipment, check with the Student Learning Center in Wagner Hall 245. You can log in to mymedia.ou.edu to either record a video directly there or to upload your previously recorded video file (make sure you set the permissions to allow us to view it; DON'T make it "private"). Then, you can post a hyperlink to the file or embed it in your D2L discussion board forum. Alternatively, you're welcome to post your video at a publicly accessible site at your own risk (e.g., YouTube, dropbox.com, portfolio.ou.edu, or your own server space), and post a stable, hyperlinked address to your production in the D2L forum.

Part 2:

Post a typed response to the Starting Assumptions posts of at least two other students. (If you are the first or second person to post, you will have to check back later to complete this part of the assignment).

After you have posted your video and responded to at least two other students, go to Desire2Learn and complete the Gradebook Declaration for this week's Starting Assumptions assignment. (Do not declare that you have completed these assignments until AFTER you have made your posts. Your Gradebook Declaration is subject to the Honor Code.)

Here is the text of the Desire2Learn Gradebook Declaration:

(3 points) I have posted my Starting Assumptions video (60 seconds minimum) at D2L.
(2 points) I have responded to the posts of at least two other students (1 point per response; 50-100 words for each).
