Learning technology teacher development blog for ELT: Advertisement Project: "Nik Peachey"

Cool idea and site referral from Nik Peachey. Having students create advertisements that will be watched and judged by the public is great.

I see the downsides of this too: making students corporate agents, filtering through nasty comments, and less than optimal outcomes. However, I really do think that the authenticity of this activity blows away the negative criticisms. You students become advertisers. Not pretend, not psuedo, REAL advertisers (without the expense accounts and 3 martini lunches).

Great idea Nik.
