Opinionated People

For the last two days we have been working on Opinionated People projects.  These projects require you to use a tool of active citizens - your voice - in a way that is relevant to you.  Simply put, I want you to be focusing on developing your ability to take an opinion and support it in a way that you would potentially use in the future!

You could blog, you could rant, you could record a speech on a your smartphone's voice memo, you could create a video, you could write a strongly worded letter, you could right a newspaper editorial, you could create a political cartoon - if you can think of something else, let me know!

Use your handout to make sure you are covering the necessary criteria and ASK ME if you have questions!  There are many exemplars that you can use on this blog, just type "opinionated people" in the search bar on the top left of the blog and look for the post with the 27 comments - those comments are last year's blog posts so they can provide you with a good idea of what to do!

So - what do you think?  Is the WTO a positive or negative force in our society today?  Get revved, get opinionated and get ready to create!'

These projects are due on THURSDAY!
