Through researching this question I have become more aware of the negative effects of social media on my generation and generations to come. Many people think that social media connects people, which in some ways it in fact does, but it also disconnects us from reality. Although I have learned a lot about social media's impacts on society, there is still a lot more research to be done. I would like to find out  how it will effect future generations, with the increased usage and advances in technology/social media.  With the increased development of social media, and rapid expansion of the technology realm, I can only imagine it worsening from here on out. In class we incorporate many forms of social media into our agenda, so I would also like to see if the use of social media benefits our class and learning environment as a whole.
I think that if people read my blog and actually thought more about the effects of social media on college students, they would realize that it is not necessary to always rely on social media. Since my 20% topic pertains to the use of social media by college students, my target audience for this blog is obviously college students.
To communicate my findings to the class and others, I have decided to create an online poster. I think that an online poster will effectively communicate my ideas in an organized and easy to understand manner. Especially since all my facts and thoughts will all be on one page, and easy to read as well!
