• Learn to use Twitter and join an online community
• Deconstruct a music video and make a poster
• Offer warm - cool feedback
• Conduct an interview about celebrities or famous people you admire and dislike
• Walk the line: Is social media video chat harmful or harmless?
• Analyze pop music references to substance abuse: do media messages glorify or warn?
