First of all,thank you very much for challenging us to this project.I believe that this project has given us the fundamental knowledge or literacy about Mass Media. Hence,it will play great role in our future career(being journalist).
As regard your questions, answers are listed below.
a)The most exciting part of the DOTCOM PHASE1 project for me was "Our brains on Media".Especially finding an interesting and funny videos to explain what part of brains get influenced and how they are influenced.
b)The most challenging part of the DOTCOM PHASE1 project for me was "The persuasive language of Media".It was more challenged and interesting,because it required more tasks,and gave more knowledge about Mass Media.I read or learned more than 20 persuasive techniques.Thanks to it,I improved my media knowledge to some extent.
c)I have not got any suggestions.Everything,from teaching method to having more interval of time to accomplish models, satisfied me.
2)I found this video to be more interesting and funny.Because it contains more funniest episodes.The best way to convince you why it is so funny,you must watch it entirely from the beginning to the end;)

Media and Leadership-Learning The Persuasive Language of Media
This video influences to all 3 parts of my brain.1) It appeals to my REPTILIAN brain. The unanticipated appearance of Jinn influences to my Reptilian brain. 2) The images and actions we see and music or noises that we hear appeals to our LIMBIC brains.3) We think about this advertisement after the watching the whole video-How is it impossible all people here got the "puma" by magic of the jinn. So our NEOCORTEX brains begin to regulate it.
Humour: I believe that the main impression on everybody who watched this video is humour. Due to the magic of jinn from the lamp every people get puma. This situation makes humour. Thereby smile appears on everybody's faces.
Symbol: here is the symbol-"puma". This symbol plays an important role in financial position of "Puma" factory or company. That is why I think using "Puma" symbol in every part of actions, especially in the end of the ad simplify the identification of this kind of shoes among others for people who want to get it without remembering the name hardly.
Plain folks: we see tens of people in this advertisement. While using these people in the advertisement, the company easily implants the strong quality of "Puma" to us or persuades that everybody is fond of "Puma" here. In this way the number of customers increases.
Big lie: here is also a big lie such an appearance of jinn. How can it help the company to involve the customers? Of course I believe that there must be strong beginning of advertisement to attract the viewers to watch the whole of the ad and then may be they will be motivated by this advertisement to buy “Puma”. All in a one, it evokes interest on everybody who sees it.
Group dynamics: I think that putting on the same of "Puma" together is one kind of solidarity. In the advertisement we see this item contributes to the people to be more solidary with one another. Although there are not any group dynamic power words, but we feel that a group of the students, fishermen and others deliver us these dynamics with their convenience on "Puma"-s and smile on their faces.
In addition to these, I think that here are used HYPERBOLE (because of persuading by making exaggerated claims) and BEAUTIFUL PEOPLE (persuading through images of good-looking individuals).

Our Brain on Media
Imagine yourself being in such situation.Ohhh! my God.It's interesting to know how you will feel if happens to you.Such funny catastrophe that happened in wedding celebration made me laugh.At the same time it caused me to think.Wedding is very important event in our life that happens only one.It's painful irony of your life is such thing happens to you in your wedding.So I think this short movie influences to our REPTILIAN BRAIN. Because it happened suddenly and we would not anticipate that catastrophe might be happen.
Secondly I suppose that there are also functions of THE LIMBIC BRAIN and THE NEOCORTEX BRAIN. When the priest is speaking or asking questions, we hear the voices or sounds, also see the actions.It is regulated by the limbic brain. Then we think that how it would be more horrible if there were not a pool.I am so sorry for future husband and his wife. I think the neocortex appears to regulate it.But its function is less than 2 other brains have.
This brief video influences me both for better and worse.At first we laugh at this situation,because it is so ridiculous.Then we begin to think how the boy is dreading and we feel pity. I believe that this movie influences to all 3 brains.
Firstly,that a boy sitting still at the computer,was looking at the screen but sudden and unanticipated scareful appearance of monster fightened him.We also startled.Because of these kind of actions,our hearts begin beating fast.It also makes anomalous breathing.So it is THE REPTILIAN BRAIN that regulates these functions.
Secondly,I think that THE LIMBIC BRAIN also here,to regulate it. Because we heard how the boy screamed and saw the images or the actions of the boy.
Finally,this also influences THE NEOCORTEX BRAIN.Because when we encounter this kind of stiuation we think that it is in reality,but then we comprehend that there is not any monster it is frivulous,just a joke:))

Books.I like books,because they can help us.They can prepare us for future.Books must be our friends during all our life.This is my opinion and I feel like it is true.As long as I can remember myself I was always keen on books.I prefer books about history. I have recently read the book "Drongo" by Chingiz Abdullayev. It is about crimes celebrated persons did. I have also read 5 books of Harry Potter.Because I like the mystery events.Newspapers/magazines.Newspapers play an important 
role in informing people of current events.Newspaper can cover more news than TV and radio can do.Newspaper provides information and comments faster.I am football fan.That is why I usually buy the newspapers such as,"Football+" and "Goal".
role in informing people of current events.Newspaper can cover more news than TV and radio can do.Newspaper provides information and comments faster.I am football fan.That is why I usually buy the newspapers such as,"Football+" and "Goal".Magazine is a collection of articles and stories.Most magazines contain illustrations.When I was a little schoolboy(nowdays I was called little by parents at home:)) I used to read "Tumurcuq" because it is a children's magazine and contain stories,jokes,articles on subjects interesting for children.Nowdays I am interested in economies and polities of the world countries. I read recently the magazine"Cool English". One of it's advantages is that it is in english.There you can also find reports of peoples about their experiences and cultures of their countries.One of purposes is teaching english.There are also entertainment and fun articles.

The first thing I do in the morning I turn on my mp3 player and listen to music.I also watch "JC TV".This channel broadcasts rock concerts.My english teacher is a singer.He sings rock music.Last year he took part in one of the most popular TV competitions.That is why my concerning with rock music have been doubled. In order to listen to my favorite musics,I buy CD-s,download from the suitable sites.Sometimes I go to concerts with mu family,enjoy listening to songs.Music reflects my moods and motions.
Television.TV is one of the most important means of communication.It brings moving pictures and sounds from around of world into millions of homes.About 70% of TV channels in our country are commercial channels.They sell advertising time to pay for their operating costs and to make profit.These channels broadcast entertainment programs.I watch some of these channels and some foreign channels.CNN is my favorite American news channel.Because I like o watch sport programs and international news.It 
help me to know what is going on in our world.The other channels that I usually watch are Discovery, Nickelodeon and Jetix.Through Discovery channel I get information of modern inventions and dicovers.My favourite cartoons are "Spongebob Squarepants"and "Naruto" .That is why I watch "Nickelodeon" and "Jetix" channels.
