After viewing the above video, comment on the videographer's purpose in creating this video. How are your current class rooms like the classes that are viewed in the past? How are they like those in the future? Compare and contrast this video with the " Did You Know?" video? Would you like to plan and shoot a video which would describe your current class rooms? What music could you use in your video?

Please watch the PBS video on the sleep patterns of teens. What did you learn from this short video? What is the videographers's message. If this scientific research is correct, when should you go to bed each evening? What are the implications of sleep deprivation? How could this improve your school performance? Could this improve your athletic abilities?
