Wrapping up PHASE 1!
Traveling to whole world is my one of the biggest dreams. To start realize my dream from US is really a great chance for me. Thank you very much for giving us a chance like this. I was not only learned new things but also got a lot of new friends.
1.A) All modules were very interesting. By these modules I’ve learned a lot of things about media and how to use internet for our benefits. For me the most interesting module is module #7-Wrapping up Phase 1=)) because when we start to do this module we should remind our all experiences, all ways that we parried from January. Now I can see that how I changed in a positive way of course=) it was really the greatest challenge that I had through my lifetime.
B) New things always seem difficult for us. But after a while we are getting to use. As this project absolutely a new experience in my life. So it was lil bit difficult for me. The most challenging part of this project was Acme Persuasion. Because we had to watch the commercial very careful to catch every single moment to make a perfect analyze and to get a good comment from Dr. Williams=)
C) As I mentioned before I had never participated as a project like this. Everything is perfect from DOTCOM staff to teach techniques and participants from US. I can’t wait to come US and meet my American friends and teacher=) as we know in next year our friends will come to Baku and stay with us for 10 days. But it’s really little time. 10 days would not be enough to us to introduce our culture, hospitality, cuisine and our cities and so on. But we will do our best to spend our 10 days in the best way!

It’s very funny video. I hope you’ll like it.

MEDIA ANDLEADERSHIP_LEARNING THE PERSUASIVE LANGUAGE OF MEDIA
Every advertisement changes person’s mind creates a new feeling towards the product advertised. This advertisement influences my I brain (reptilian ), II brain ( limbic ) and III brain ( neocortex )
1 symbol – Brahma. This is a qualitative beer.
2 testimonial – The famous Brazilian football player Ronaldo has been invited to this advertisement in order to advertise this beer.
3 Humor – The playing of Ronaldo with the oxen in the playing ground makes one to smile. Finally famous football player’s opening the top of the beer with the horn of the oxen makes the advertisement more enjoyable
4 Big lie – Falsehood is also used in this advertisement. Ronaldo’s game with the oxen is very interesting.
5 Strength – Ronaldo ’ s game with the ox shows that a person becomes more powerful when he drinks this beer.
6 Repetition – Oxen matches takes place in Spain every year. This advertisement has similarities to these games, too

Our Brain on media
Every naughty boy wants to stay alone at home and to what he wants.KEVIN gets chance to stay at home alone.''ALONE AT HOME'' is one of my favorite films. I especially like the part where Kevin fights with thieves and protects his house from them.When I watch this film it influences my limbic brain and at the same time influences my neorocortex brain.Because I think about the end of the film and about what is going next.
