For instance, Teens and Technology would claim social media expands social circles, which is a positive claim for relationships. However, the authentic truth would reveal “31% of teens who use social media have fought with a friend because of something that happened online” (Lenhart, 2015). For this reason, it can be deducted that while online media produces a public knowledge of other individuals, it also harms existing relationships by generating online turmoil. Another common

People constantly compare their real life to others virtual lives (Stephens-Davidowitz 1). Additionally, social media tends to make users less social in reality, contrary to the name. Modern technology is not always a good thing, sometimes it needs to be limited. Nobody wants to feel as if they are being watched. Truthfully, if they have social media accounts, they are being watched.

The Flip Side of Internet Fame In this article The Flip Side of Internet Fame by Jessica Bennett, there are many issues discussed in regards to the internet and how it can create instant fame and shame.

Although social sigma can be a useful deterrent, “the Internet is loose cannon,” says ethicist Jim Cohen of Fordham University School of Law in New York (Fawcett 579). Internet fame is causing more and more people to become isolated because of shame, rage, and death.

An additional threat is corporate

Yes, social media gives negative effects in our life. Many people have their own arguments about social media, like pro and contra, because social media gives us many effects. There are positive and negative

In fact, the leading cause of social anxiety stems from today’s judgmental society. In spite of this, the use of online gaming has aided in the therapy of some SAD patients. While social anxiety is a prevalent disorder, there are few places to get treatment or therapy. Social anxiety may not be the most life threatening disorder, but without treatment and medications people with SAD will not live a normal

However, lack of research regarding the impacts of social media on socialization leaves many wondering what the consequences really are. The purpose of this study was to assess the impacts of social media in human socialization across various age

People want relief from stress even if this ends up changing their beliefs. Looking for more than one estimate of the same quantity, especially in a group; produces better final judgements then an individual first estimate. Even though we prefer to hear perspectives similar to our own, we are better off hearing different perspectives to make more informative decisions. Confidence earns trust and credibility, but when one is found to be wrong their credibility is now questioned. Assessing the overconfidence of people around us is often overlooked causing overprecision.

This data is mostly obtained from online platforms and as is common knowledge, not everything online is true. One particular source of data for these companies is social media and the lives people claim to live on social media 7/10 times is probably a lie. This type of data is what makes advertisers miss the mark in most of their campaigns. They end up targeting the wrong market whenever they use this data. You find teenagers who have false years recorded by these social media apps receiving ads that are not age appropriate or people posting pictures depicting a lavish lifestyle yet their income is modest.

This made them more open to cyberbullying. On the other hand being conscientious had a negative effect on being bullied. Meaning that the more conscientious one is the less bullying they will experience. In the study they connected this to conscientious people being more trusted therefore getting satisfactory social support and diminishing the need for using the Internet. Other factors such as gender could also have an effect on the rate of cyberbullying.

In today’s society, depression is widely more accepted. However, some would still argue that depression is not a real disorder. One main cause of this is social media. It has become popular for individuals to log onto accounts and pretend to have depression to fit in, “Online communities like those on Tumblr are perpetuating ideas of "beautiful suffering," confusing what it means to be clinically depressed” (Bine 1). Some people on sites such as Tumblr have made a disorder that greatly affects the lives of so many people and have made it into something that is trendy.

Texting and its effects on complicated-formal writings compared to the theory that Google, along with all other search engines, is making those that use them stupid. While both articles discuss the pros and cons of two well respected technological services, the services themselves are polar opposites and the ideals regarding the effects of both services vary as well. “Is Google Making Us Stupid?” argues that overuse of search engines, can lead to the permanent inability to process long articles and retain large amounts of information from essays/ long papers. While “Does Texting Affect Writing” makes the case that, while texting can potentially have an impact on our formal writing skills, the errors found in papers are typically caused by force-of-habit because of the poor instincts we develop due to the use of abbreviations, poor punctuation and spelling errors in our texting. However, these habits can be broken and fixed with grammar practice and time and are not permanent like the effects caused by Google are told to

In this era, with technology as a part of everyday life, it has become difficult to use a simple Public Service Announcement (PSA) as a way to reduce distracted drivers. This is due, for the most part, to the developed habit of assuming. People believe, since it’s seen in many shows and commercials, that those ‘bad things’ that come as a result of distracted driving are not likely to occur to them. People want to prove that they are able to do multiple tasks at once and every PSA would be a challenge so to speak, to show they are above average at multitasking. Those such assumptions and aspirations to prove oneself have resulted in such growing rates.

Social media is used for many different reasons but it also influences who I am. There are many different things on social media like, what is trending and seeing negativity. An article by Jim Taylor states "The problem is that the self-identity that is shaped by popular culture serves its own best interests rather than what is best for us"(Taylor). It shows that social media helps influence us to believe what the social norm is and what is best for us. Being on social media definitely is challenging because it is hard to know if something is socially acceptable or not.

Throughout the course we mainly constructed rhetorical analysis through assigned readings and projects. In the beginning of the course we started by writing a reading analysis of the articles from the textbook, Norton Field Guide. The readings we had to analyze: “The Fashion Industry...” by Hannah Berry, “Our Declaration” by Danielle Allen, “Just One More Game...” by Sam Anderson and “Well Behaved Women” by Laurel T. Ulrich. Professor Lewis assigned demonstrate rhetorical analysis each one of them by summarizing, rhetorical analysis and response. In addition to inspecting the parts where there are ethos, pathos and logos.
