Telling vs. Showing our Project

Today in class we discussed how our project will be a video comprised of movie clips, personal interviews, and statistics, all relating to online relationships. We hope to show the class the effects of online dating, how people percieve it, and what age range is most likely to use online dating.

When we show you our project, we hope to both entertain and inform you on this new era of online dating and relationships. The movies clips will help you realize how pop culture has taken hold of this phenomena and made into a money making venture. Also, the personal interviews will give a better insight into the way people percieve online relationships and if people actually think online dating is a valid way of forming new friendships.

As dicussed in our reading, the way things are presented helps with its effectiveness. By presenting our project in this "digital" way, rather than in a written paper for the class to read, hopefully people will be more prone to pay attention and form opinions on the topic we are discussing.
