Every rendered video, one page
What you are judging: the video as a student sees it — does it teach the atom, hold the script, draw what the words name. 23 videos so far.
How to rule: one tap per card — Approve for video keeps it, Needs changes holds it for an edit (say what in the note), Skip the video drops it. Every tap is saved and sent; the Notes tab gathers them.
Edits land in place: a card’s video is always the latest delivered version.
