Interwar Essay

The interwar period was the time lapse between World War I and World War II. Countries like USA, Britain, Germany, France, Italy, China, and Japan were all going through a lot of changes. Some positive and some negative. Britain, United States, and Germany had very negative economic changes. The British stopped working and had an absurd amount of unemployment. Their government kept pushing them and making the people work as if they were still in war. On the other hand, Germany had NO money. They had to pay the rest of the countries the damages they had provoked during World War I. Some American Investors bonded with Germany and made their way into recovery. But that worked until the Stock Market crashed. Not only did the American economy make a ridiculous turn, but it brought the German economy down with it. France pretty much depended on German money, but when they realized the cash wasn't going to come to them that quickly, they decided to attack. Once more lost a large variety of men, not only that, they also lost MORE money. Italy entered a type of depression because they weren't granted with the territories they wanted. They needed those territories in order to increase their financial economy. Most countries were going through negative and conflicting processes. But that's not it, some actually had success in other things...

Germany started with the idea of Fascism. They began a program called "The Twenty-Five Points", which denied all the terms of the Treaty of Versailles. During the parliamentary elections the Nazi party won and put Adolf Hitler as their leader. It was believed that the Nazis were going to increase the military power and maintain the world in control and order. If Hitler might have been in the US instead, the economy would have gone up, and would have gained more power than it already had. The US by itself was a powerful country, but with the ideology of Hitler, its power would have been greater. Not only that, but its economy would had gone up by at least 30% because with the money that the US already had, and all the countries they could have conquered its economy would have been outstanding.

I believe that the interwar period was a time that countries needed to "heal" from WWI. It should had also been a time of planning and learning from mistakes. The country I believe did a decent job at that was Germany. At first, they did follow the "instructions" they were given, but then they became rebels in a way and basically ended up conquering so much territory and had a power that was almost undefeatable.

PREZI!

Prezi is a great website for creating presentations. I actually find it very entertaining, especially if you want to create a funner and creative presentation. It is like a "Sandbox" experience. You can just place things and grab them with a single click. If you want a more interactive and delightful presentation this is the place to go. I personally LOVED it. The only thing that gave me a tiny bit of trouble were the enlargement of pictures, I just went crazy with the mouse. Other than that it was so much fun.
I found really easy to add all the pictures and the information I needed. I could practically put them ANYWHERE I wanted. As I said in the paragraph below, the enlarging of images was the only difficulties I had. If I had to work on either Powerpoint or Prezi, I would actually have a easy time deciding. If I had to do a formal presentation with graphs and written information, I would use powerpoint because it is much more organized in that type of things. But if I had to do a fun presentation with images and little information, Prezi would be my number one option.

PSA best

Pending....

Pending...

The best one in the class I think was Debora's and Jade's video. It shows that they really did take their time doing it. The music and all the scenes completely match. This PSA also gives you a good message because it automatically catches your attention. Another good thing about their PSA is that all the information they give is real. Those things really do happen, specially in teens.

PSA

PSA stands for Public Service Announcements. Its and advertisements that doesn't sell you anything, it is more educational. That's why it is different than a commercial. They mostly talk about health and education. The way in which a commercial and a PSA are similar is that they are both promoting something, although a PSA is promoting something like safe sex or no drink and driving. What a commercial promotes is a specific product, such as Doritos or Monster.

I really don't care who I work with. If I work with Debora it would be fine because she's creative and I'm outgoing and that makes a good team. We live close so it would be better. I also wouldn't mind working with Adriana or Fernanda C. because I also live very close to them and we make a good team. Courtney or Hope are also a good options because they are both good friends of mine and I think we can make a really good team.

List:
-Do sports
-Anorexia
-Safe Sex
-Drinking and Driving
-Obesity
-Drugs


Safe sex: I think this subject is super important for teenagers my age and older because people are having sex younger every time. I would do this by doing sort of like a time line, showing how people are have sex and children younger and younger each time.
Drinking and Driving: This is very important also because teenagers go out more and drink more now a days. I would show this by showing sort of like an accident in which a teenager is drunk and causes a lot of damage to other people around.
Drugs: I think that teenagers are a huge impact on their family members, specially if they have younger siblings. If a teenager does drugs, the sibling might think its ok. If I did this I would do how a teenager is doing drugs and a little sibling watching. Then the younger member would go to their room with their friends and do the same. The teen would go in and see how their sibling is doing it to because its "ok".
