World War II video project grades are posted

Here is a project that earned a grade in the A range, and an explanation of why it did.  Consider whether or not your video had everything this one did.  Also, if grades vary within the same group, that is because individuals contributed more (or less) than other group members.  The assignment description clearly stated that each group member must contribute to the project, so grades may have varied based on individual contributions.
