The scaffolded assignment requires students to navigate French-language websites to research information (travel and logistics; historical and cultural) on a francophone destination to plan a stay and various activities. That research translates into a two-phase PowerPoint presentation, first presented in class in small groups and subsequently transformed into an MP4 video to overlay a recorded narration.<\/p><p>The objective is to engage students through \u201cdoing\u201d in French rather than merely completing a traditional workbook-style assignment. The PowerPoint presentation enables creativity (visuals and text display) while the MP4 video lets students practice speaking skills. Uploading the MP4 to a video platform (Kaltura) gives students practice editing the automatically-generated closed captions, helping to deepen their understanding of accessibility. The presentation addresses the IT-Instructor collaboration, the phased approach to the assignment (scaffolding), the integration into Canvas, and students\u2019 reactions to the assignment on end-of-course evaluations.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fcf1032 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"fcf1032\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f4e073a e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f4e073a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5959934 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"5959934\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8622973 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"8622973\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Live Session Recording<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-818039e elementor-widget elementor-widget-html\" data-id=\"818039e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"html.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<iframe id=\"kaltura_player\" src=\"https:\/\/cdnapisec.kaltura.com\/p\/2903541\/sp\/290354100\/embedIframeJs\/uiconf_id\/45950661\/partner_id\/2903541?iframeembed=true&playerId=kaltura_player&entry_id=1_o1ck8ur5&flashvars[streamerType]=auto&amp;flashvars[localizationCode]=en&amp;flashvars[sideBarContainer.plugin]=true&amp;flashvars[sideBarContainer.position]=left&amp;flashvars[sideBarContainer.clickToClose]=true&amp;flashvars[chapters.plugin]=true&amp;flashvars[chapters.layout]=vertical&amp;flashvars[chapters.thumbnailRotator]=false&amp;flashvars[streamSelector.plugin]=true&amp;flashvars[EmbedPlayer.SpinnerTarget]=videoHolder&amp;flashvars[dualScreen.plugin]=true&amp;flashvars[hotspots.plugin]=1&amp;flashvars[Kaltura.addCrossoriginToIframe]=true&amp;&wid=1_0eidce3r\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" allowfullscreen webkitallowfullscreen mozAllowFullScreen allow=\"autoplay *;
