facebook group

• For our campaign we had to create a group, or a way of letting other people know about our campaign.
• I created a group on Facebook called ' free hot chocolate'
• so far...20 people have joined my group, not all people who have joined are on my contact list.
• i have invited everyone on my facebook contact list so i can get as many people to join my campaign
• Facebook is a good way to get support for your campaign because lots of people will be able to join the group easily, you can keep track on how many people have joined and the word will spread quickly about the campaign.

my posters

These are my 2 campaign ideas, i created them on photoshop.

first we had to think of slogans for our campaigns, some of my ideas were:

• Think college.Think chocolate
• chocolate.lessons.home
• late for college?not anymore
• with you in mind
• wake up to chocolate-which i used for my poster

For the first poster(left) i decided to add a clock, because my slogan is 'wake up to chocolate', which goes with the picture.

For the second poster(right)i added a cup of hot chocolate , because my campaign is 'free hot chocolate', and it looks delicious:)

I used browny fonts, becuase it, in-a-way represents hot chocolate

campaign T-shirt design feedback

:)positives:)

• 'Like the simple design'
• 'straight to the point'
• 'very grown up design'
• 'nice'
• 'I like the tea & Chocolate,high fives'
• ':)like this'
• 'good use od colours'

negatives:

• 'Could be less smudged'

I think the feedback was moslty possitive, and shows that my campaign idea was a good choice, and that i chose the right picture/stencil design.The only downside was that when i did the silkscreen print, afterwards it came out a bit smudged.It shows that i should have been a bit more carefull .

petition research

http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/Tweens/

i chose 'provide support for 16 to 18 year olds' because it involves me ,16-18 year olds, and i completely agree with it .It is a time when us teens need-a-hand:college,problems at home...what is the petition for?....

• "This age group are not entiltled to any unemployment benefits or housing support and often slip through the net, many are often in conflict at home and they can become homeless, sofa surfing and even living in tents, they are often not noticed because many people can't believe that any teenager is not living at home with mum and dad."

• "Many young people are struggling with many issues such as parental drug use at home, violence within the family often affects them directly and other types of abuse and neglect. Most of the young people affected do not 'look homeless' or like they are suffering in any way, they are effectively hidden. "

• "Many of them are have failed accedemically and have many issues to deal with - they often struggle to cope with all the things going on in their lives and despite the media approach to teenagers most of them are just normal young people struggling to find their place in a increasingly more hostile society. The young are our future and they all need to be supported when they are young to become well rounded young adults that are able to cope with the life they are expected to take on, how can they do this without the neccessary support?"

free hot chocolate!!!

My campaign is 'free hot chocolate ' in the morning at college

• lots of places that sell hot chocolate normally give freebies , but not free hot chocolate to people.


• I only found one result for a website for 'free hot chocolate', but no campaigns .


• The only result i found that is similar to my campaign, is a site called 'freehotchocolate.com'.They give away free hot chocolate from 27th october -March 31st .To be able to get the hot chocolate you have to be part of a group-so its not for everyone.


• My campaign is to make free hot chocolate at college in the morning when you ome in the classroom.I thought of this idea because in the morning you wake up and feel like,"oh no , not college..."...but!If you got a free hot chocolate in the mornings you might not mind as much, and it's something to look forward to!


• it won't be expensive ot make hot chocolate because the ingrediants aren't too expensive- a average packet/jar of chocolate is £2.99 for a large one, and £1 for a small packet(cadbury's hot chocolate at sainsbury's)
• smaller packets are even cheaper-about...46p

I did a survey on my campaign, the 3 questions were:

• Do you like the idea of this campaign,
• If you got a free hot chocolate in the morning ,would you come in on time ?
• Do you think its realistic for the college to do this,give out free hot chocolate and tea every morning?

The feedback i got was that:no-one had thought of the idea before , "they probably would come in on time if they knew there was something to look forward to when they got in the classroom"and that "the college would probably not be bothered to spend money on giving students free hot chocolate"

• My campaign is to convince colleges/schools that students should get free hot chocolate.Lots of students liked the idea, Ithink it would encourage students to be on time and will save them money .Also people who bother to come to college should get a reward in return-free hot chocolate
• It is aimed at students and colleges
• my aim of the campaign is to get every college to make free hot chocolate be available to students in the mornings when they come into college.
• who will support it ?students that go to college.We deserve a reward, we choose to come to college, we should get something in return, other students would agree with me .
• who might oppose?the college themselves, they might not want to spend money on free hot chocolate, ' there's more important things to spend the money on .There's many postivies/advantages for this campaign, and the only negative is that it does cost the college money.

Tom Woodcocks campaign presentation...

• Tom Woodcock is a secretary of the trades union council
• He showed us different campaigns , the Tesco campaign,Postal workers...
• He has partisipated in many campaigns, including the Royal mail strike

www.nomillroadtesco.org

One of the campaigns mentioned is the Tesco issue-The Tesco Metro on Mill Road

• over 5,000 people signed a petition and 1,000 people objected to it's planning applications
• The 'No Mill road Tesco ' Campaign was set up to oppose and kept Mill Road Tesco-free for alomost 2 years
• Now because there is a Tesco on Mill Road, means that other food shops are going to suffer-people are going to want to go to Tesco...
• There are a lot of disadvantages:more Tesco vans going down Mill road, putting other businesses out of business , and there are enough places where you can buy food:Co-op, grocery stores, restaurants..

vox pot task

we had to film ourselves asking other people in our class, or other students about our campaigns.

my questions were :

• Do you like the idea of this campaign?
• if you get a free hot chocolate in the morning, would you come in on time more?
• Do you think it's realistic for the college to do this-give free hot chocolate every morning?

we were put in to groups.My group were:Matt,Leanne,Jasmine ,Sunny and Chloe.I think we worked well as a group, because we got the filming done quite quickly.Down-sides:Someone felt bad so didn't join in much and it was a really cold day...

After the filming we had to edit the video , to make it look good .It took a day for me to finish editing my part of the video.

my 3 campaign questions...

-Do u like the idea of this campaign?

- If you got a free hot chocolate in the morning ,would you come in on time ?

-do you think its realistic for the college to do this,give out free hot chocolate and tea every morning?
