Mention the learning objectives at the beginning of the script<br />
<br />
<br />
Test all the features, like link, webpages etc, and confirm that they work<br />
<br />
<br />
Explain the topic well<br />
<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Use short sentences<br />
<br />
<br />
Be specific while giving instructions.<br />
<br />
|-<br />
| style="border-top:none;border-bottom:0.035cm solid #000000;border-left:0.035cm solid #000000;border-right:none;padding:0.097cm;"| Slide 6<br />

<br />
<br />
Please do not leave any thing for the learners assumptions.<br />
<br />
<br />
Write all the steps from the beginning to the end.<br />
<br />
|-<br />

<br />
<br />
A quick recap of the content taught in the tutorial in bullet points or a flow chart towards the end of the script.<br />
<br />
<br />
Please suggest an end task, a quiz or project so that the learners can work on it.<br />
<br />
|-<br />

<br />
<br />
When read aloud, the script should be of 7 minute duration.<br />
<br />
<br />
Please ask a novice to verify the correctness of the script by executing the action.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
