In our last lecture, the teachers mentioned how they try to stay in tune with what is happening and what are the influences in their students' lives. I saw this video and thought this was a good way of incorporating the students' interests and learning into one project.


I liked how in the song, the students displayed that they learned about both parties, each party's platforms, and also the election in general.
