Today we began working on the Market Place of Ideas. This is a project where each student finds an Issue in America that they find interesting, and that they want to express their opinion about. Today in class we were given the opportunity to search for a topic that we cared about. I began the brainstorming process by looking the recent news articles. I also went to the websites of Frontline and 60 Minutes. While I was at these websites I looked for videos that caught my interest and videos with topics that I wanted to learn more about. I have not made a decision today but I have several topics in mind which I am thinking about using. These topics are alternative energy, marijuana legalization, gun control, drinking age, regenerative medicine and education reform. I am going to continue to search for topics and make a decision by Tuesday.
