What the fuck? Literally why? It's an online class with no live sessions. I have literally no reason to know any of you people. You fucking extroverts and your fucking exhibitionism fetishes.

I think you should say what you just typed in a 15 second video to the class.

How do you expect to interview in person for a job if you cant even introduce yourself to peers...on a prerecorded video.

An in person interview is completely different than a recording. Sounds stupid but I've always had a phobia of electronic communicaton stuff. I used to be too paralyzed to speak on the phone or in Skype. I'm better now but actually recording myself is still very difficult.

Draw a smiley face and hold in front of the camera, and use a text-to-speech program to make the voice

Interviews are totally different because you have a goal (get hired), objectives (demonstrate certain knowledge/skills), a very specific audience, and the subject matter is fairly limited. Class projects where you have to talk about yourself are just trash.

Just say "Hi, I'm <your name>," then stare at the camera for two minutes unblinking.

That is pretty stupid. Nobody gets to know anybody in online class formats and pretending that it does happen is annoying.

They'll be saved to Canvas, you should be able to DL them yes.

Remember when you were little, you would double space everything, making a one page document take up two and a half pages? Do that with the video

My parents are super secret agents. I was picked to fight evil forces when i was a teenager because i had attitude. The spirit of earth gave me and my friends some rings. I like turtles and fart a lot but they smell good. I was a penguin in a past life.

I always found it kinda discriminatory to make people get up in front of a class.

Some simple video editing will fix that.

Maybe there's going to be assignments you have to do with a partner, and the introduction videos are a way to pick out people you don't want to work with.

Not in introductory macroeconomics. All assignments are HW and quizzes.
