Remember: This is the most important part of the PSA presentation…the information you want the audience to know about. When adding your notes, add definitions, lists, statistics and other facts that explain the topic, not full paragraphs to read like a script. You should break the facts into small bits on each slide or frame.

If the screencasting app only offers an online copy, provide the public link to it and put that in the assignment dropbox.

B.) Please also submit the presentation that was the basis for your video and place that into the “Internet Safety Project (.ppt)” folder. If your presentation was web based or a Google Slide presentation, add a document that includes the public link to it.
