The Task

Your team of creative artists and writers must:

• choose a advertisement for a specific product or a type of product;
• clearly define what the problem with the ads are;
• summarize the problem and outline a solution or the truth;
• create striking visuals to capture people's attention;
• write concise headlines and articles exposing the lies and promoting the truth;
• complete a self evaluation form;
• complete a group evaluation form;

Researching the advertisements means: writing jot notes describing the type of images used in the ads, explaining how those images tell lies, pointing out the problems with the logic behind the ads, and make clear what is the truth about the product.

Designing striking visuals means: finding or creating pictures that use color to catch the eye as well as images that make people think or stimulate their imaginations.

Your group can decide what format to present the images and text.  Either using Power Point, Word, or producing posters or magazines on paper.
