We  won’t be meeting for class on April 10 (next Thursday). By the end of the day (April 10), I’d like you to have posted your thoughts about the Generation Like video that we watched part of in class today. For this assignment, you will need to watch the rest of the video on your own time.

I’d like to get from each of you a blog post of 2-3 paragraphs with your reactions to the trends and ideas expressed in the video. Here are some questions to consider as you compose your response:

•  who are the winners in all of this? who are the losers?
• is anyone being exploited?
• how aware do you think the teens are of what’s going on?

Please note that you don’t need to answer these specific questions. There are provided here to get you to think a bit more deeply about the video and engage your imagination.

If you’re interested, a complete transcript of the video can be found on the website for Generation Like.
