PROJECT 2 DELIVERABLES DUE Sunday, October 28. Submit your work to the Project 3
Submission Drop Box as follows:
 Self-Evaluation. Compose in Word, then cut and paste into the submission box.
 Deliverable 1: Slidecast. Submit the URL and Pitch Letter for your slidecast as a
Word or PDF file.
 Deliverable 2: Review. Submit the Review and Pitch as a Word or PDF file.
To avoid a point penalty, verify your submission. Do not rely solely on BbLearn’s
confirmation that your work submitted. You need to check that your work submitted
correctly.
This means you need to go back to the drop box after submitting your work and 1) open
your document files, and 2) check that the URL you submitted will work by cutting and
pasting it into a browser. If one or more files didn’t submit correctly, upload all of them
again because I grade only the last submission.
