POPSSo these are the ads that my course blog (the one linked to my students) generated?
I'm not really even sure what to say about this one...it's kind of funny, yet sad at the same time! I'll find out if my students feel like weighing in on this one :o) Perhaps there's a key word or two that triggered the mental health stuff... Otherwise, I just have to wonder if this assumption for the ads simply predicated on the (assumed) age-group of the bloggers? Hardly deep or meaningful in the basic so-what-they're-just-adwords-sense; however, we're going to start discussing advertising in various formats of popular culture next week, and this set of ads rather sadly shows just how influential the media can be (to the detriment) of young-adults' mental health... First...shamelessly advertise product, service, etc... Second...shamelessly advertise the treatment for harm done by those ads and media the ads were meant to generate revenue for.... Third...make money on steps one and two... Fourth...repeat...
