Week 6: Tying It All Together

I am currently wrapping up my coursework for my PhD program and just found out I passed me preliminary examination (cue the party) so I am fully in the thick of it. I realized this week that while I am coding qualitative data through the online software Nvivo, I have been utilizing the tool of mind mapping to layout my data and potential analysis. Then I was like wait, wait, one of this weeks tools is Mind Meister, which is a way to map out projects. 

Look at that connection. Who would have thought that week six would bring similar tools in different contexts to play for me. While I am utilizing them in different ways, this was a prime example of all of the different resources we have in the 2.0 metaverse. For funsies, I decided I would create a mind map using Mind Meister that would show you what I am working on for my research through NVivo - tying it all together if you will.

Blog 3: Week 1

 I did a family poll this week to see what was everyone's most used social media platform is. My immediate family is my partner and two dogs so the dogs didn't have an input ☺I also polled my parents and my sister. Below are the tallies of who uses what every day.  Facebook: 4 Instagram: 4 Twitter: 2 TikTok: 1 Some would argue this could be age related, however the ages ranged from 33 - 71, and the twitter users were in their 40's and 70's, Facebook was everyone, Instagram was everyone, and Tik Tok was in their 30's. Just thought it was interesting to get a perspective on what people are using. Ironically no one in my family blogs either, so that is not a common network or online community that is utilized. Something I did not think of but no one mentioned using it, was YouTube. I think about YouTube when I need to complete DIY for something around the house, or it opens automatically from a different site, but I don't view it as social media, when it absolutely

Week 4: Online Life

While progressing through class this week and attempting to become more integrated in other Web 2.0 communities and content, I can't help but find it overwhelming. I think there is a reason I am fully a part of some online communities and just aware of others. Maybe it is the feeling of a need  to check in or just not having the capacity to engage across multiple platforms. I am sure there is a term for it these days and I should go search for it, but I feel exhaustion from the internet  right now. Don't get me wrong, it is a privilege to have everything in the palm of our hands, connectivity to loved ones, access to information, maps, locations, etc., but living in the space throughout the day is exhausting.  I sat outside last night and reflected on my usage of all things that are internet related throughout my day and it is no wonder I feel overwhelmed. And yes, I strategically set outside so I wouldn't be around anything streaming or playing. Below is just a snap shot o
