Discussion of poverty reduction initiatives (PRIs) would make for a compelling video provided that you offer a novel perspective. I suspect that many of the submissions will address PRIs, but given your extensive studies of and exposure to poverty, you shouldn't have any problem doing so.
Good luck!

One thing though When they ask us to back it up with evidence...Im not sure evidence of what kind?
I mean, are we supposed to film hard evidence of let say,..umm...the "needs" in society that support our idea? If we say poverty is adversely affecting a certain area , are we supposed to include a short documentation showing the area n how its being affected?
Posted by: Anon on January 2, 2008
I don't think that you need to go to that length in adducing evidence, especially since you have a maximum of three minutes in which to make your case. If you go down the hard evidence route, use perhaps two or three statistics to develop your larger point. If you opt to give a personal account, offer one simple but powerful narrative; don't try to tell your entire life story.
Good luck!

Ali

I might participate, but I haven't even begun to think of a topic. Good luck if you decide to participate!

Both -- you can't make any money if you just do political science. =)

Is'nt it too much of a courseload
Posted by: Swagnik on January 3, 2008
A lot of people at MIT complete a double major (I'd say that Course 6 and Course 15 is the most popular one), so it's definitely doable!
