Nikhil Varma walks through an assignment on EPA sustainability assessment. Read the chapter, make slides, record yourself presenting them, and submit the video link. Grading is 20% presentation quality and 80% how well you cover the chapter material.
Chapters
Hello. I would like to invite you to participate in this assignment. And this video is being made to help you get more information about this assignment that I'm giving you. So I've given you a book chapter from EPA which has the Sustainability Assessment and Management. This is in this topic where we talk about sustainability assessment and reporting. Reporting has to do with management as well. What I am asking you all to do is to be able to put that, read that chapter and put a presentation together. And once you're done with the presentation, make a video of your presentation. Now for those of you who've done videos, I'm sure you'll be comfortable. For those of you who are not, I am going to be making a video as to how we can record the presentation from a PowerPoint so you can run a PowerPoint, you can record the presentation and then upload it in within the Ramapo context. We do have something which is called TechSmith Relay and you will be able to upload it there. I will be giving you a complete video on how to do it. Then you get a link to your video and you upload that video link into the quiz. Okay. When you upload that video link into the quiz, I would request you to. Click. This is just to make sure that you know, if you're not open to putting your video out there in the open, but if you want to upload to your YouTube channel and post your YouTube link, that's fine with me too. However, I would not force you to do that. But please don't send me your video files. You know, with this amount of students that I have, it is impossible for any kind of email system to be able to store that kind of data files from so many students that would come in. So that is why it is always nice to host it and then give me the link. In this presentation, I will be putting in 20% of the points on the quality of the presentation, how you are putting all those things together. Now, of course this is not video editing quality, but video content quality, how your slides are structured. And then I will bring 80% for, for your content. You know all the content that is in this chapter and if you have any research, then put your citations. Please don't just copy and please don't make presentations. Just pick up presentations from outside. Your presentation has to be specific to this EPA chapter. And you know, if you have anything that expands those discussions in this chapter, then that's fin time. So essentially I'm looking at sustainability assessment tools, methods, approaches and how is it all this managed at the very end. Okay, thank you. And I look forward to your assignments.
