Week 3 Video Blog Assignment
The purpose of video blog is to present ideas in an accessible and more informal way than in formal academic papers. Video Blogs are typically short pieces that integrate your personal experiences with analysis. Video Blogs are a great place to focus in detail on an interesting topic related to class discussion or on readings that you have not been able to bring up in class. Video Blog posts demonstrate that you have been actively reading and listening, and they often provide building blocks for more formal papers later on.
