Impacts of Social Media on Society
I have created a cluster to visually describe my controversy of how social media impacts society. This cluster shows how the major groups involved in the Ideology of My Controversy are influenced and interconnected. Categories are bolded, and basic perspectives on social media are italicized.
Reflection: As I looked at Scott and Clayton's blog posts, I immediately felt a sense of dread. My cluster is VERY intense and complex compared to theirs. Scott's cluster was organized fantastically and made the issue and opinions very clear. And Clatyon's was very similar. Each cluster used little space and few letters and drew a clear and simple picture of their issue. Mine seems way too complicated. However, as I think about it, that might not be a bad thing for me. I understand my issue so much better after creating that map, and I included points about how social media made specific changes in groups. I can tie these changes together and examine them specifically to show the overall effects of social media on society! My cluster became a cluster-planning hybrid. I separated general ideas into specific details that I could use in my QRG. While it's not as immediately readable as the clusters of others, it will certainly help me write my Quick Reference Guide.

Your cluster showed me how nice Coggle looks when embedded in a blog post as compared to just taking a screenshot, so thank you! I agree that while your cluster seems complicated, you still made an effort as to make it make sense to you, which is what matters! Whatever works best to help you organize your thoughts I believe is the best thing. It looks like you did a lot of research and have thought through your controversy well, so you should have an easy time writing your project because you planned so well! Good luck!

ReplyDeleteI like that your cluster contains so much information, I am sure writing the QRG will be a breeze for you. The data seems to be very logically organized, presenting both positive and negative aspects of the mentioned parties. Looks great!
