Today at E4 Youth we began the day by watching The Weight of a Nation Part 3, a documentary about childhood obesity and how it’s effecting the USA. Then we finished our group’s questions and combined them into a brief, which will serve as a guide for our final project. I’m looking forward to next […]
Well, all we really did today was talk about our next big project and wrap up the research we gathered in our different groups. It was a pretty easy day otherwise, we watched the rest of episode 3 of The Weight of A Nation and talked about it a bit. We all wrote down facts […]
Our secondary research pieces from yesterday were combined together as one piece in each group and then as a whole class. The new project idea was presented and I think it’s a very strong decision.

I really liked our presenter today. He was not only informative in a media aspect, but in a healthy lifestyle aspect as well. We could ask him about our roles as media’s youth, but we could also ask him about health itself and facts about what we are working against. He also showed off a […]
ICBU Day 9 Today we are learning about secondary research. Just before we learned about this secondary research we found out a few things about the marketing strategies and behaviors of America and how it targets the American Youth. Evidently America spends more money than most countries make on marketing alone, the idea of marketing […]
We had our projects critiqued. I know my group could have done better had we used some time out of the hours for E4 to shoot, edit or plan.
Today we presented our projects today! I was so impressed by what everyone had to show today, all the products were well done for the time and resources we were given. There were several part of the projects I liked and others I thought could be improved, but overall I see a lot of good […]
