Before — the video on the course today
Ten videos, before and after your notes
Olivia — each row is one video you commented on: your words, what we changed, the video as it is on the course today (left) and the new render (right). The new renders drop the old drawing rule that caused the oblong arms, the missing hands and the things that moved by themselves; the specific fault you named is fixed in each. Same narration throughout. Tap Fixed if the new one can go live, Not yet if not, and use Note for anything specific with the moment it happens.

1 · G3T01 L01 · Motion — Say where it is
“That first video still has the ball appear under the desk from nowhere. I think especially in a physics unit we really should be showing physical reality.” — Olivia, 16 Oct
What changed: The red ball lies under the desk in view from the first frame; Sam walks to it and crouches by it. Nothing appears from nowhere.
After — the new render
rendering — not landed yet
2 · G3T01 L05 · Motion — Measure how far it moved
“(Hands and fingers across the course:) I've made that comment 80 million times but the fingers in this are a problem, are distracting, and need to be changed.” — Olivia, 13 Oct
What changed: The old 'no hands, plain oblong arms' rule is gone from every brief: the two children are drawn whole, with natural hands and faces, pointing at the start mark.

3 · G3T01 L06 · Motion — Straight or curved path
“Her 1 Oct note on the thrown ball: the rolled ball and the thrown ball should be clearly two different throws, with the curved path drawn as the ball flies.” — Olivia, 1 Oct
What changed: The child rolls, then throws, with a natural arm; the friend catches with hands; the dotted path draws behind the ball as it moves.

4 · G3T05 L04 · Forces — Which way does the force act?
“The graphics need a little improvement. This finger or arm, or whatever it's supposed to be, is really weird-looking. Also when the drawer comes out, it actually comes all the way out and would fall.” — Olivia, 7 Oct
What changed: A child's hand, drawn naturally, holds the knob; the drawer never comes more than half way out.

5 · G3T06 L01 · Forces — Some forces act without touching
“The 'hand' in the video is a popsicle stick. I do think this is important to change because there's a contradiction between what's being said and what's being viewed.” — Olivia, 7 Oct
What changed: A real drawn hand pushes the ball and opens to drop it; the magnet hangs from a string, as she suggested; the paper clip is pushed by a fingertip.

6 · G3T07 L01 · Forces — A push or pull starts things moving
“The arm is sort of a little ridiculous looking. In some ways it's not a big deal but I do think it's distracting. If we're trying to keep the student focused on the message but instead they're thinking about this long arm…” — Olivia, 8 Oct
What changed: The girl pushes the swing seat and the boy pulls the wagon handle with natural arms and hands; the long oblong arm is gone.

7 · G3T07 L02 · Forces — A push or pull can slow or stop things
“It's confusing as to the sled moving. Why is the sled moving? The guy is standing there with a slack string kind of passively so there's no indication as to what caused the sled to have this movement.” — Olivia, 8 Oct
What changed: The sled slides down a gentle snow slope — the cause is visible — and his pull on the rope stops it.

8 · G3T08 INTRO · Forces — Strong or weak: drawing a force (topic intro)
“At 49 seconds the ball rolls back to him without ostensibly anything touching it. I really think as these videos get made and revised, there should be a focus on not making things magically happen. This is a forces lesson.” — Olivia, 13 Oct
What changed: A friend rolls the ball back to his feet with a push of her hand — we see what moves it — before the big kick.

9 · G3T08 L02 · Forces — Draw the force as an arrow
“The boy's arms when he's doing the pull earlier in the video are a little bit ridiculous. Otherwise I like this video.” — Olivia, 13 Oct
What changed: The boy leans back on the rope with natural arms; the falling ball drops from an open hand, not a held-out oblong.

10 · G3T09 L01 · Forces — More than one force at once
“It would be better to have the sidewalk end and the grass begin rather than have the sidewalk magically change to grass. … At 1:04 a table is introduced but the wagon is not removed and it looks like the table is being pulled behind the wagon magically.” — Olivia, 15 Oct
What changed: The sidewalk ends at a clear edge and the wagon rolls onto the grass; the wagon leaves the frame before the book and table appear.
