Module 9

 

Who will be your survey-takers? I was thinking of asking my friends, and students in my other classes to participate in my survey.

How many do you need? I would say at least 10 people, but I do not really know how many people I would need for this survey (first time doing a survey).

How will you approach them? I would either email them, call them, or ask them on zoom if they could participate in my survey.

Will they write on a piece of paper? No. I do not want to put anyone that would be participating in this survey at risk of getting Covid-19. I will more than likely, create an online survey or email them.

Will you ask them questions and put tick marks on a tally sheet? No. I would like them to take their time in answering this survey, as earnestly as possible.

Will you email the survey to them? Most likely, as this is the most convenient way to get my survey out to the people that I am planning on contacting. I was planning on sending them an online survey, or a Microsoft word document that they could write their answers on, or check mark them off. I am planning on using an online survey, such as, google survey or survey monkey.

Sample survey:

For my sample survey I am planning on using on some of the questions that I drafted earlier.

Do you use social media, as a news source? Yes or No

Is social media your preferred news source? Yes or No

Do you follow politicians on social media (twitter)? Yes or No

Do you think you get a balanced perspective in your news feed? Yes or No

Do you use an online search engine (google) to look up US political news? Yes or No

Do you do research on the subject you looked up? Yes or No

Does where the news comes from affect how you view it? Yes or No

Do you have an online community group you follow? Yes or No

Has news popped up on your feed on any social media platform you use? Yes or No

Is reading political news on social media more convenient for you? Yes or No

Research Topic

 As of right now my research topic will have a focus on the media, like, I stated earlier in my conversation with my friend. I want to understand how the media operates in the 21 st century, and why it has changed over the last couple of years, where they decide to sensationalize the news, and not properly fact check their sources. Media, nowadays, worries more about ratings than actual journalism; my goal is to understand that shift in thinking. Though, I think that I have to define what I mean when I say the "media", as their are multiple types of media that we as a culture consume on a daily basis. I want my focus on the media to be about... looking at major news stations like CNN and Fox(will add more news stations).
