__**2nd Group Assignment**__
For the 2nd assignment during week 2, the class will be organized into 5 groups. Each group will prepare a 3-5 minute Public Safety Announcement (PSA) on one of the 5 following topics: ** Cell Phone Distraction in the Classroom, Using Cell Phones to Cheat in School, Cell Phones and Cyber Bullying, Sexting, and Cell Phone Safety ** Each PSA will have a typed script that should match the spoken dialogue in the PSA - if there is any action that is relevant to the message content, include stage direction notes that reflects that action or activity. The PSA will present a brief overview of the problem, provide two real world examples or statistics (source cited in script) that reinforce the existance of the problem, offer at least two suggestions on how to avoid/address the problem, and finish with a conclusion.

The PSA can be submitted as either an audio blog entry submitted to Hipcast directly from a cell phone, or it can be a video recorded with and uploaded by a cell phone to YouTube.
