To what extent should we embrace Globalization Related Issue #1 Should Globalization shape identity?
Lizzie’s Morning This morning my Japanese made alarm clock woke me up by playing a really annoying British garage band. I got out from under my Egyptian cotton sheets, put on my jeans that were made in China and my American made t-shirt and socks, and checked my messages on Facebook. I was excited to see that my cousin in Australia had added me as a friend. Then I went down to breakfast where my mom had homemade toast, Costa Rican coffee and Flordia orange juice read for me. She was watching CNN on the kitchen TV; there was a story about some disaster in South America, but I wasn’t really paying attention. My dad was sitting at the table reading an email from a business associate in Italy. It was raining out so before I head out the door I grab my umbrella made in Tawian. Then I hopped into my old Honda Civic and race over to my friend Ali’s place so we could both get to our early morning shift at Walmart. Oops I nearly ran out of gas, so I stopped at the local Esso station to fill up, probably contributing to global warming.

RAFT Role Economist, Environmentalist, Human Rights Activist, OR Anthropologist Audience Public Format Advertisements or commercials inform the public about products they can buy or services they can pay for. Public service announcements (PSAs) instead inform the public about a message or an idea. Public service announcements can be effective because they use traditional advertising techniques in a familiar format. Are they Controversial? Not necessarily! Some public service announcements express a strong opinion, or try to encourage people to change their mind about an idea (eg messages about government policy). Other announcements try to raise awareness (eg environmental issues), raise money for a charity (eg an AIDS campaign) or encourage better health (eg healthy eating, stopping smoking or drinking and driving). Topic Globalization The Writing Task: Students will work in groups of two to develop a short public service announcement (PSA) that summarizes how their assigned role feels about globalization. The PSA will be in storyboard format. Use the following to help you plan get started. The Big Idea Consider who will be watching you PSA and what is likely to leave a lasting impression on them. What is the best way to get your message across? After viewing our PSA we want our audience to understand or feel: The Production In order to draw the audience into the PSA, it needs an attention-getter. Our attention getter is: Select appropriate visuals, actors or photos to match your main idea VISUALS ACTORS PHOTOS List the sounds and music you will use to enhance your message: Adjust your message to last no more than 30 seconds Conclude your PSA by giving the audience something to remember Remember your PSA needs a clear beginning, middle and end The Finale Now you are ready to create the storyboard on paper or poster board, using sketches, photos, or both. Each scene should be sketched or photographed in sequence. The message (narration, text or dialogue) appearing in each scene should be written below it. Consider what the transition will be from scene to scene and show they transitions in the appropriate places on the storyboard. Describe any movements within the scenes. And be sure to give your storyboard a title
