Perhaps there are add-on opportunities too. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To make the content of this assignment a bit more flexible (and mobile), I&#8217;ve provided a video (which is the primary way I envisioned the assignment), but also an audio-only version (in case you prefer to download and listen while you&#8217;re doing other things) and a transcript, in case you just prefer to read through it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"A1: Digital Credential Platform\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/X1JSjoBDA8Q?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>* Background Music by Bensound.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec523\/files\/2021\/10\/AUDIO-ONLY-Digital-Credential-Platform-Version-2.mp3\">AUDIO-ONLY-Digital- my Presentation<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec523\/files\/2021\/10\/AUDIO-ONLY-Digital-Credential-Platform-Version-2.mp3\" class=\"wp-block-file__button\" download>Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec523\/files\/2021\/10\/Script-Mobile-CredentialsFinal-Version-1.pdf\">Script-Mobile-CredentialsFinal-Version-1<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/etec523\/files\/2021\/10\/Script-Mobile-CredentialsFinal-Version-1.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button\" download>Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-pb-accordion-item c-accordion__item js-accordion-item no-js\" data-initially-open=\"false\" data-click-to-close=\"true\" data-auto-close=\"true\" data-scroll=\"false\" data-scroll-offset=\"0\"><h2 id=\"at-76290\" class=\"c-accordion__title js-accordion-controller\" role=\"button\">Select (Click) to expand and view References:<\/h2><div id=\"ac-76290\" class=\"c-accordion__content\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Bold New Ways In Sharing Digitized Documents Internationally: A Canadian Approach<\/em>.
