Part of your discussion post needs to be in video format! Record a video just two minutes long responding to one of the two discussion questions. Which question you choose is your choice. Write out your answers to the other question (minimum of 150 words for your written answer). For your written answer, make sure to include in-text MLA citations as well as a works cited area after you’ve answered the questions.
In-text MLA citations look like this: (Glymph 1). Glymph is the author’s last name and ‘1’ refers to the specific page number you found the information you referenced. For the lecture, you can just say (Smith Lecture, Part 1) or (Smith Lecture, Part 2) as long as you include the full citation in the works cited page that provides the title of the lecture.
This is a helpful overview of how to use in-text MLA citations (click!).

Please make sure to include a word count in your post and your replies.
The easiest way to upload your video is to click on the icon on the menu with the play button and the music note. Then click “upload/record,” then click “record” and go for it! Once you’re done, your video should automatically show up in your discussion forum post.
If this isn’t working for you, please be in touch or upload your video to YouTube, then share the YouTube link in your discussion forum post. To do that, follow these instructions:
