These are sample instructions for a Group VoiceThread assignment. Your assignment names, or instructions, may differ. Please read this carefully and do the necessary edits prior to giving these instructions to your students.
Step 1: Build your slides
The group leader should start a Google Slide deck and share the file with the other members of the group.
The group leader should download the slide deck as a PDF or JPG set of images to a computer and take responsibility to create the group’s presentation in VoiceThread.
