Types of Advertising- Online Advertising
Television Advertising
The majority of television commercials feature a song or jingle that listeners soon relate to the product.
Press advertising
Press advertising describes advertising in a printed medium such as a newspaper, magazine, or trade journal. This encompasses everything from media with a very broad readership base, such as a major national newspaper or magazine, to more narrowly targeted media such as local newspapers and trade journals on very specialized topics. A form of press advertising is classified advertising, which allows private individuals or companies to purchase a small, narrowly targeted ad for a low fee advertising a product or service.
In-store advertising
In-store advertising is any advertisement placed in a retail store. It includes placement of a product in visible locations in a store, such as at eye level, at the ends of aisles and near checkout counters, eye-catching displays promoting a specific product, and advertisements in such places as shopping carts and in-store video displays.

Most often, they are located on main roads with a large amount of passing motor and pedestrian traffic; however, they can be placed in any location with large amounts of viewers, such as on mass transit vehicles and in stations, in shopping malls or office buildings, and in stadiums.

Effects of brands on people
How much important is brand name important when buy a something?
I have Nike conditioning two years ago. All of my clothes were Nike. My friends called me "walking Nike store". It's a gradual change but I got rid of my conditioning. I focused on Nike although I also searched for brands but unfortunately brand name is still important for me. I know that brand name isn't important for clothes. Derya
My conditioning is related to shoes, watches and eyeglasses. I prefer to brand name because if it has a problem I can find authority. I haven't got conditioning on clothes such as t-shirt, pants. If İt isn't important whether it is brand or not for me. Tuğba

Battle of the beverages
“Pepsi’s love for Coke on April fool’s day.”
The battle of brands have generated some really innovative campaigns over the years. The love affair between Pepsi and Coke is so evident from above ads and this reminds me of some interesting hoarding war between Kingfisher Vs. Jet.
So we conduct a poll in class about coca-cola or pepsi. Poll results coca-cola better than pepsi:
Pepsi: %20
Coca-cola:%65
I can not tell the difference: %5
I do not drink soda: %10

What is peace education for our comment?
Identity Consumption
People change their personal identitiy for adopting fashion. People try to be different but they become the same so people who entegrate in a group lose their identity.
People are encouraged to consumption with various causes which are adapting new group and creating new trend. For instance, people who change into a new condition depend on their new group conditioning. They start to adapt to the new group with new clothes, behaviour and new hair style. They try to be as the people who are in the new group. In short, this variation starts at first with appearance then character. On the other hand, people who get bored from the same things want to create new trend such as tiki girl who have to same brand clothes, eyeglasses, bag, shoes and hair. All of them are one type. Even their conversation belongs to tiki and they go to same cafes such as Starbucks. In short, you understand people which are tiki whenever you see.
Dissatisfaction
Every kind of person is affected by fashion so they become addicted to consumption. This situation is not only based on needs but also fashion and brand.
Unequality
Nowadays we have been living in a consuming community. Therefore, it's normal that people who have got distinct economic status affect each other and they tend to consumption. These situations cause psychological problems.

For a long time.

Nearly 5.
Why did you chose Burger King in the past?
My parents encouraged me and I was also encouraged by the toys Burger King gives which are advertised in some movies.
What do you think about whether fast food is conditioning or going to Burger King is conditioning?
I think going Burger King is a conditioning.
I know that you prefer Burger King. Why not do you prefer McDonald's?
Because Burger King is very delicious.
As you see, people consider brand image or their habits while they choose. In the examples above, toys which were given by these restaurants and habits are important but these are already important for many people. These restaurants have many selling strategies. Toys are one of the most important strategies. We will continue to search about these strategies.

What is Peace Education?
Learning about peace means obtaining knowledge and understanding of what contributes to peace, what damages it, what leads to war, what does 'peace' mean on each level anyway, what is my role in it, and how are the different levels connected?
Learning for peace means learning the skills, attitudes and values that one needs in order to contribute to peace and help maintain it. For example, this means learning to deal with conflicts without the recourse to violence, learning to think creatively, learning to apply the methods of active non violence or learning to deal with cultural differences in a constructive way.
