BLOG-A-DIFFERENCE PROJECT INSTRUCTIONS
The purpose of this project is to encourage you to think more deeply about the world in which you live. The more you seek to understand the roots or history of the many wonderful and many troubling situations around us, the more you will appreciate the amazing diversity of the human spirit. The next step is for you to inspire curiosity and help others become more enlightened about our world. Remember that controversial issues often have evolved over generations and are engrained in cultures. Check these links www.procon.org OR Opposing Viewpoints for frequently debated and hot topics and great information sources. Embed an audio/video clip from (http://www.schooltube.org/, http://www.npr.org/, http://www.pbs.org/, http://www.cnn.com/, ...).

I expect you to really take this project to the next level.
