David's Learner Activity Review
.Students will explore several sites pertaining to advertising techniques and ethics behind the commercial making industry. After they learn the types of advertising and the ethics, they will be required to create their own advertisement using powerpoint. They will choose three low-market industry provided (C&C, Drakes, etc.). For each company they choose to advertise for, they will present a slogan, the good qualities of the product, faults that should be mentioned according to ethical codes, and how it's economical. They will submit it for review. If their powerpoint proposal is sufficient they will be emailed for promotion to advertise a commercial in the superbowl for a high-market industry.

//Will this be a "real world" assignment (will the proposals actually be submitted)? If it is, this will be a great motivator to the students. Also, as an alternative to using MS Power Point, how about having the students do a video podcast or post to You Tube? This might branch it out a bit more for different learning styles and make the aspect of competition a little higher. Finally, what will the students be graded on?// - //Danielle//
