COMM 141 Student Video Introduction Assignment:

Students, for this assignment, you will need to have a webcam, a microphone, and
access to eCentennial.

In this small assignment, you will have the opportunity to introduce yourselves while
also getting to know how to use some tools on eCentennial.

This introduction will be worth 2% in the course, and it will be grouped with other small
assignments in “Skills Development Assignments,” which is worth a total of 15% in the
course.

For this assignment, you will be creating a video recording on eCentennial in

which you will introduce yourself. The recording should be about 1-minute long.
Please speak clearly and in complete sentences.

You will:

1. provide your full name (If you use a nickname, please also introduce that.)
2. show some photo I.D.

(Please hold it close to the camera so that it can be clearly seen.) If you
have your Centennial College photo I.D., great. However, if you do not
have a college photo I.D. card, any other photo I.D. that shows your name
and your face will be acceptable.

3. provide your Centennial College student number

4. provide your program of study at Centennial College
5. very briefly explain what you would like to learn in COMM 141

7. answer this question: Are you currently living in Canada, or are you based in a
