Video Assignment Calculator Widget

Try it out to see how it works!

The Video Assignment Calculator is a tool that allows students to break their video projects into a series of steps leading to the completion of the assignment. Each step has its own deadline and has tips to help students with that part of the project. Breaking an assignment into manageable tasks can help students avoid procrastination and lead them to give proper attention to the various stages of making a quality video that might otherwise get neglected. The widget is sized to fit in the Moodle sidebar.
