    "You can make a difference assignment"

    i have an assignment in one of my classes that tells us to illustrate the idea that one person can change the world for the better. This can apply to almost anything that you picture

    if you have any ideas on how i could illustrate that or if you can give an idea on how one person could change the world for the better then please share.

    I guess it all depends on your POV.

    But "Pay It Forward" is a brilliant movie, and may give you some ideas.
