They were told that they needed to create at least 4 cards linked together with buttons, use clip art from the library and have at least 1 animation. If they wanted to, they could also record their voices when creating their buttons. On each card they were also to add a text box and write at least a few sentences about what their card was about. At the end of their assignment, they will be given a chance to share their stacks with each other. Since the lab has only 18 computers, the students will work in pairs.
