Close your eyes and take a trip back in time!

 Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! 


Wow, I can't believe that is my ninth blog posting! By the title of this post, I'm sure you could maybe be a little confused. I want us to take a trip back in time and reflect with one another. These past several weeks have been joyous to me! I have loved uploading content onto my blog and I tried my best to show my personality through it! My favorite posts from the blog thus far have been: I Just Had A Vision....., What Did You Say, Listen, Hear or See....., Canceled Culture: The Fight to not be......... Canceled? and Are Targeted Ads an Invasion of Privacy? Which blog posting did you enjoy reading the most? We have talked about leadership, canceled culture, visions, laggards, innovators and so much more. This has been a joy, hopefully, everything that I've talked about is able to be applied to your everyday lives. I won't be posting as much as I normally have been, but I will still be uploading content. 







I'll see you all online soon, but until then I want you to remember that “We always see our worst selves. Our most vulnerable selves. We need someone else to get close enough to tell us we’re wrong. Someone we trust.” -David Levitha 


Keep being authentically you,

Crowdsourcing in a Digital Era

 Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog. This week in class we talked about different topics related to communications such as politics, crowdsourcing, and the global impact of emerging media.

Crowdsourcing is a relatively new marketing tool and according to gep.com "crowdsourcing is still in the infancy stage, and in the future marketers will likely strive to adopt this model for other marketing subcategories," (2021).  Exam...

Blogs: Citizen Journalism?

 Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! This week in class we discussed blogs and how some people rather take advice from a blogger than a professional on different subjects. Let's jump right in! I want to start this week's blog off with an exercise. Close your eyes and think about 3 different types of blogs that you have come across. Now that you think of them determine how they differ. Do you read blogs for entertainment purposes or to gain deeper understandings of a subject that you are passionate about or concerned about? Personally, I invest my time reading 3 types of blogs.  cooking celebrity news scholarly  I love to cook so I gravitate towards cooking blogs for new recipes. I must admit I love reading about celebrity gossip because I find it interesting. Lastly, I gravitate towards scholarly journals for school. I will say that sometimes I prefer reading a blog over a news article. I feel like bloggers do a good job creating content that connects with their a...

Social Media Is The Key To Our Future

Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog! This week in class we discussed social media and its growth. We had a discussion post this week about whether or not teachers should incorporate social media inside of their classrooms. For this blog posting, I'm going to dig deeper into this theory and my beliefs.  Technology has been a part of my life since I can remember. I have seen major advancements in technology fold right in front of my eyes. I always thought about technology in a positive way. Once social media apps began forming and becoming well known I wanted to have an account. Currently, I have social media accounts for: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat, Linked In, and Tik Tok. Each of these sites serves a different purpose for my life. I use Facebook and Snapchat to stay connected with close family and friends, I use Twitter and Instagram and Tik Tok for entertainment purposes, and I use Linkedin for networking opportunities. Facebook is very resourceful for networkin...
