What news mattered most to students this year?

DOWNLOAD VIDEO Which global events had the most impact in 2014? Our #MyZeitgeist competition asked students to pick the year’s top stories by creating multimedia projects. Three students who participated in the contest at T.C. Williams High School in Alexandria, Virginia and their teacher joined the NewsHour's Judy Woodruff to discuss the past year and what the news means to them.
