Final Video on Sustainability by Industry
Student instructions for video assignment.
Scope and Goals
Each student will work alone or in pairs to research a topic and communicate the findings in a 4–7 minute video. The main objectives are to communicate clear and accurate information in an engaging manner for an audience of your peers.
Note. The project is evaluated on the basis of its accuracy, academic rigor, clarity, and ability to engage the viewers. The video is not assessed on the basis of its technical merits (i.e., the final product should not only be visually impressive, but must effectively communicate the sustainability model for their respective corporation). Pay close attention to the sound quality of the video—if no one can hear it, no one will watch it.
Deliverables
There are two deliverables:
1. The completed Sustainability by Industry worksheet (serves as the storyboard and script)
2. The final video (incorporating the answers of the Sustainability by Industry worksheet)—due April 28th by 5:00 pm.
Required elements for the video
1. Length. Your video should be 2:30 – 4:00 minutes in length, plus time for a “credit roll” to
show your references.
2. Style. There are no restrictions on the style of the video (i.e., you may use a narrated
slide show, a recorded lecture, a digital whiteboard, a stop motion animation
(Claymation), a sock puppet show, animated graphics, a scripted scene, filmed artist
drawings on paper, “man on the street” interviews, a combination of the above, etc.).
3. Title slide. Your video should begin with a descriptive title, your name(s), the name of
the school, and the year in which it was created.
4. Content. Aim to use all the information you vetted from the Sustainability by industry worksheet, class resources and pertinent information from valid sources. You are also welcome to use your own drawings, pictures, music, animations, filmed scenes, and interviews.
5. References. All artifacts (images, videos, music, sound effect, etc.) used in the video which you did not create yourself must be cited at the end. You do not need to use a complete reference; simply include a brief description of the item and a web address where the item was found (e.g., Picture of kitten www.spca.com). Include a separate section where you credit the sources of information you used to research your video (Annotated Bibliography does this). This information should be cited using a complete reference. Your instructor will provide suggestions about how to complete this step more easily.
6. File format. Your video must be submitted in one of the following file formats: .mov,
.mv4, mp4, .wmv. Note that these are rendered movies, that is, files that will play on
someone else’s computer. Be sure to test your finished product ahead of the deadline.
7. Editing platforms.
This stage is done using video-editing software such as Power Point, iMovie, Jing, or Movie Maker, where you stitch the artifacts together and synch then in t ...

Tips
Elements that make a video effective at communicating
3. information.
· Good quality audio
· Narration is clear.
· Music does not detract from or obscure narration (i.e., avoid
music with singing,
and the volume of the soundtrack should be low
compared with the narration).
· If, for reasons that cannot be circumvented (e.g., wind at the
time of recording),
the sound is unclear, subtitles may help viewers make
sense of the scene and
remain engaged.
Pacing
• Slow enough to give viewers a chance to think about the
information presented.
• Pause between sections of the video that present different
concepts to indicate a
break (it’s like starting a new paragraph on paper).
• Show images for long enough that a viewer can make sense of
them but change them periodically to ensure that viewers
remain attentive.
Relevant visuals
• Visuals match the narration.
• The narration orients the viewer to the image (e.g., the
narrator says “in the left hand corner of the circle there is a blue
dot that represents electrons . . .”).
• Include subheadings or tag lines to emphasize new vocabulary
or to introduce someone.
• Avoids distractors such as fancy transitions, tangents, and
audio-visual overstimulation.
Appropriate for audience
• Targeted to an audience of peers; it is neither too technical nor
too simplistic. It should help your peer learn something new.
• Go for depth rather than breadth.
• Video is respectful; it does not denigrate others, use offensive
4. language or imagery, or inappropriate humor.

Critical Thinking Assessment Tool
· Choose a population that you believe should use critical
thinking.
· Develop a tool, for this specific population, that you can use
to assess or measure the cognitive habits or behaviors that are
part of the critical thinking process that this population uses.
For example – a novice nurse entering the nursing profession,
an experienced nurse working on a new unit, parents of a child
with a chronic illness, a patient who has a new diagnosis of
diabetes or heart disease and must learn to self-manage the
disease.
· Use Box 2-5 and appendix A to choose which cognitive habits
and behaviors you decide to measure.
The tool should include:
· A total of eight questions, each addressing a specific cognitive
habit or behavior.
· A rationale for each question – why that question can measure
that specific cognitive habit or behavior.
Introduce your tool with a discussion of the importance of
cognitive habits or behaviors that encourage critical thinking.
Provide a conclusion to pull the entire activity together.
Here is an example of one question you can ask when assessing
the critical thinking skills of minority parents of overweight
children.
Question: How do you feel about your child’s overall health?
Your family’s health?
Rationale: This question is assessing the critical thinking skill
or habit of the mind: contextual perspective. Assessing how the
parents feel about their family’s overall health would give the
nurse a view of their contextual perspective. Parents who are
cognizant of their children’s or overall family’s weight issues,
10. poor eating habits, or lack of exercise can result in the potential
consequences of childhood obesity such as hypertension,
asthma, and diabetes. (Rubenfeld & Scheffer, 2015).

Topic: Fashion Industry and sustainability
Thesis Statement: The Fashion industry in the United States
spans from the manufacturing sector, marketing of brands,
design, consumerism, and the development of identity. The
impacts of social media, new sustainable business models,
advanced manufacturing, climate change, and changing
demographics are leading to significant changes in all aspects of
the fashion industry with the potential to reshape it for years to
come.

14. Sustainability by Industry
Sustainability: The most often quoted definition comes from the
UN World Commission on Environment and Development:
“sustainable development is development that meets the needs
of the present without compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own needs.” In the charter for the
UCLA Sustainability Committee, sustainability is defined as:
“the physical development and institutional operating practices
that meet the needs of present users without compromising the
ability of future generations to meet their own needs,
particularly with regard to use and waste of natural resources.
Sustainable practices support ecological, human, and economic
health and vitality. Sustainability presumes that resources are
finite, and should be used conservatively and wisely with a view
to long-term priorities and consequences of the ways in which
resources are used.” In simplest terms, sustainability is about
our children and our grandchildren, and the world we will leave
them.
Directions: You will conduct research on an industry of your
choice, and deconstruct its infrastructure to get at the core
values, the mode of operations, its intended audience, and the
full impact that the industry has on all the ecosystems it
touches. Finally, you will explore what the future of your
respective industry will look like and incorporate the lens of
sustainable best practices to make your industry resilient,
cognizant of its place in the fabric of society, and ethically
sound.
