Journal Entry 4

 


QUESTION #1 

The thing I would love to discover from my primary data collection is why would individuals as in college students find social media to affect them either in a positive or a negative way. I want to see what they think about social media and what they think are some affects to it. 

QUESTION #2 

The population that I want to target for my research essay is college students. The reason why is because most of the students use social media as a guide, escape or as a friend. Due to me also being a college student I want to know what other think about social media and how it is taking over. And I want to also know if am the only college students that thinks this specific way about social media.

QUESTION #3 

For my research question I will also be conducting a survey and there will be a total of 15 participants. These participants will have the option to answer some questions that I have conducted about social media. These questions are simple ones that include either a yes or no answer or it will include the participants to type down their answers. The answers I gather will help me write my research paper and will also help by allowing me to see how individual people think about social media and what affects it can cause to a college student.

QUESTION #4 

As I am conducting my research survey, I will reach participants by coming up to them and seeing if they will be willing to participate in answering some questions for my paper. And it will be optional and anonymous. The participants will mainly be from campus due to me only focusing on college students. So, after class or before I will go up to students and ask if they have free time to answer some questions and if they do then great and if they don't then that is totally fine due to them maybe having to finish their assignments so if that happens then I just ask someone else.

Question 1:  My experience conducting research or writing a research paper in my other courses were always a journey a long one 😅. The reason why I would consider my experience a journey would be because I had to come up with my own research questions and well let's just say am not the best when it comes up to thinking of questions. And well don't get me started with how much time I have to finish my paper. I don't tend to feel pressure when my assignments are due but when it comes to writing any type of essay, I do tend to need more time to finish due to me not having enough information to finish my assignment. And well it didn't come easy to me to type 4 to 5 pages. But the thing that made my work a bit easier was the sources I found online, and those specific sources do help me find more information of the topic am researching. Question 2: My mindset right now in the beginning of the course knowing that we will focus on research is well good in my opinion. In other

QUESTION #1:    As of all the feedback that I have received so far, I would say that my baseline is somewhere between 3 and 5. The reason why I believe this is my baseline is because while receiving feedback I would sometimes get feedback for things or ideas that I thought were good but for other people it didn't seem to make any sense so they would give me feedback, but I would sometimes take it, or I would either not use their feedback. Having this issue sometimes it will make me feel not too sure of myself in other words I would not be expecting feedback from ideas I thought were good to include in either my essay or projects.  QUESTION #2:  If I compare my emotions to that of a medalist, I will say I feel like I always win 3rd place. The reason why I would say that I would win 3rd place is because I am always okay with it. Due to the point where I know that I tried my best and that will have to do. Another reason is because I don't necessarily play any sports so I won't
