Explain how each of the following concepts relates to this scenario.
A new student named Alex has just moved to a small town and is trying to fit in at the local high school. The school has a strong sports culture, meaning the cool kids are on the football team. Alex, who is not particularly athletic, decides to join the school's debate team, which is not considered cool. The debate team is recruiting members and creates a promotional video featuring a local band. Alex's parents, who value academic success, encourage him to excel in the debate team. Later, Alex notices that one of his classmates, Joe, is struggling to carry a poster to his next class. Joe shares information about an upcoming school event that the debate team could use to recruit students.
