Rotunda project response #11

     I found the rotunda project videos to be the most appealing. They caught my intrest quick. The first one I saw was Anthony Defeo's piece on healthcare. It was interesting to see what some of our fellow students knew about the current healthcare system. I thought it was really smart to get such a wide view of subjects not just seniors or juniors. It was really professionally done and was very interesting . I was surprised to see how little I knew about such a  broad topic. This is a very important subject and must be treated as such.
   
      It's great to finally make younger people aware of struggles they must face. I agree that such important information should be taught in high school. We are mature enough to learn information that will one day soon greatly affect us all. Adults need to teach this in the ciriculum whether it's a social studies class or health class it shouldn't matter. There are many useful things that students will need to learn to survive in the real world that we are never taught. No teacher teaches us how to invest our money or balance our checkbooks,but that's important stuff. I think this video clearly demonstrated this and is eye opening. Teachers should make a stronger push for this type of information. Anthony did a great job in that aspect of his rotunda project.

   This video just stood out to me, but the others were great. I thought the milk alternatives video was also very interesting. It really made people rethink such simple things as milk. All we hear about is that milk is really good for you, but this seems to disprove it. There were many interesting facts they presented I never knew.

 The last video was also good. It seemed to coincide with what I thought about Anthony's video about what should be taught in schools. They got real students and teachers prospectives that I thought was nice. All the projects there were very informative and interesting. I was just so immersed in the videos.
