* Mr. Bui is also developing a question-answer workflow so that students can ask general and specific questions. The workflow will look something like this:
** Your eventual video will be 5-7 minutes in length. Less than 5 minutes is allowed, but you should ask yourself why it's so short
+
** General questions should be posted in the Canvas Discussion area; however, the student should check if any existing discussion threads already answer their question. If not, then a new thread should be created for their question
** List the specific actions or functionalities of your program that you will test. These should be your success criteria
+
** Specific questions about student code will require students to take a screenshot of their own code and message it to Mr. Bui. The Canvas messaging system will likely be used for this because Mr. Bui does not want his inbox to be flooded
** For each of your actions, state your narration or the specific action you will perform as you are demonstrating your program
+
* If you have a questions, please feel free to e-mail Mr. Bui or create a Discussion thread. Please note that if you e-mail a question, and it's a good question, then Mr. Bui may create a thread himself to repost and answer your question
** You should also demonstrate any error-handling that your program can do
+
* Please note: Mr. & Mrs. Bui have their own children at home with them, so do not expect immediate responses.
** This is your time to show off your IA for complexity points
