We had discussed the Time Person of the Year article yesterday and a bunch of students commented on the class blog about why they were the person of the year. I enjoyed their answers, but it seemed like most of them missed the point of the Time article in their comments. I saved this commercial off of YouTube, converted it, and brought it in for them to watch. I thought that the visual might help more with the person of the year thinking. You might want to also link to this commercial. I used it first and the students liked it because it has students in it. <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xta3ypBXeIw" rel="nofollow">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xta3ypBXeIw</a> I used this in my class today.
