Please review the instructions provided by the Screencast-O-Matic Quick-Start Guide (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. in order to get started. This guide will familiarize you with the tool and review how to upload your video to the classroom. You do not need to develop a PowerPoint presentation. This discussion is meant to assess your communication abilities; therefore, the audio portion of the video or screencast is essential.

All submissions require an upload of the video to the classroom. Submission of a link to a video does not fulfill the submission requirements.
Think about the following questions while formulating your response to the public:
What are the issues you will address first?
Which organization is responsible for what? Where will you allocate your resources?
What public health concerns are the results of each of these events?
Which populations might be most at risk?
What are some of the long-term health effects of these events?
What other health concerns may arise from these events?
What will you say to the people, who are desperately awaiting your direction?
