Drug Addiction (Jolina & Raquel)
Our final project will be on drug addictions. This will involve facts and stories from people who have actually struggled with the use of hard drugs and talking about how they have overcome their addictions. Our pages will include:
– home (information about website)
– documentary (video, will include interviews of former drug addicts and their stories)
– facts & statistics (how do you define addiction, stats, etc.)
– Q & A (pictures and a slideshow with former addicts & their advice on the road to recovery, possibly including a poll or a comment page for viewers)
– get help (advice, websites, numbers to call for quitting)
– about us

An idea that I may want to explore is the “hookup culture.” With apps such as tinder, I feel as though today’s youth have been more promiscuous than those of previous generations. I think this is an interesting topic that has many different angles to it, and can easily be covered with different sources. Besides the home and contact pages (two of the five required pages), one page can strictly be used to tell the story of students that are willing to be interviewed over this topic. I feel as though I’ll be able to get stories from students/young adults that have “hooked up” or have opinions on hooking up and apps such as tinder that allow this to happen easily. Another page can have information provided by physicians/healthcare providers discussing the risks from a medical standpoint. The last page can easily be a page discussing STDs and tips on how to avoid them (contraceptives… abstinence).
