We chose the topic of teen to parent relationships to focus on because we wanted to show how important teens and parents’ relationships really are. We wanted to show that parents’ roles in teens’ lives are necessary in order for teens to graduate from high school and become successful individuals. According to the statistics that we researched, teens without parents are twice as likely to drop out of school, become drug addicts or engage in sexual activity at an early age. Children who die from abuse or neglect or poverty are usually parentless. We want our peers to know that it is important to have a good relationship with their parents. We used statistics and individual interviews of teens that have distinguished relationships with their parents. The interviewees weren’t afraid to show their true emotions, which helped get the message across. Although the students were sensitive towards the topic, they were still willing to be openly honest and show true emotion because they know the importance of the issue as we do. We want others to see that the relationship between a parent and a teen is important because it influences us on whether we will be come strong individuals in the future and be successful or not. We want others to make an effort on improving their relationship between either their parents, or their own kids. We learned that every student responded differently, yet they still felt it was a strong topic. We also learned some interesting stories about our peers.

This Creative Week Daily Debate discusses if digital photography is all tech and no talent. Knowledge of aperture, exposure and light settings is often considered an art form to be cherished, over auto-settings and quick fixes with all the work done in post-production. But in an age when everything is becoming digitalised, should traditional photographers be ready to embrace image manipulation?

A short documentary that asks why middle school age students make fun of homosexuality and make gay jokes. Artist's statement: "What brought me to this subject was that my ELA teacher was encouraging us to do a lot of social justice projects and I was interested in the topics of homosexuality and suicide among teens. I wanted to find out why kids always made fun of these issues. They talked about them like they were jokes or like they were nothing. I decided to narrow down my documentary because I was worried about what people would think and say if I was asking about suicide. It’s a really sensitive issue. After making this movie, I’m hoping that people will understand that it’s okay to make jokes but you shouldn’t take things too far. By making jokes about homosexuality, you cross the line and can hit a nerve by hurting someone’s feelings and putting them down."
