Subject: Question Regarding Digital Story - 12477– Jane Doe

Dear Mr/Mrs xxx,

After our discussion on Tuesday, I went back to my room and could not

remember how to finalize my digital story and upload it to YouTube. I looked

over the W200 website and check your emails sent through OnCourse, but I

still couldn’t figure out how to do this. Can you send me a link to a tutorial?

Also, can we meet to discuss my digital story topic? I have class during your

office hours. Thank you!

Sincerely,

Jane Doe (janedoe@indiana.edu)
