Satire
The satire videos we watched today may have been offensive in some ways, but I believe they are the best ways to get points across, especially to the youth. First of all, they are not dreadfully boring, having comic parts. This enables easy listening for all. Also, the satires bring extremely important issues into everyone’s eyes because of how they play out. Not every high school student is going to sit down and watch presidential debates or even the news, but with shows such as “South Park” touching on all the issues going on in the world, it is easier to get the message out.

Well said Dana. Do you think I would have more success in the classroom if I could teach using satire? I bet more people would pay attention.
