Blog Post #3

Below is my response to Eliana Katz’s Blog Post #3:

Hi, Eliana! Your third blog post was great. I relate to so much of what you discussed!

I also use TikTok as a primary resource for my PLN and find that since there are many university students who use the platform, it is a great way to engage with a plethora of people in a similar life stage as us. 

Your insights into tone and intention’s role in social media is well-put. This is something that can be easily forgotten, so being mindful of this can help mitigate things potentially being received poorly. A way that I do this is by having someone else review any content I am fearful may not be received exactly how I want it to and refining based on the feedback I receive.

Lastly, I appreciated that you highlighted the impacts of certain groups being underrepresented in digital media. Being aware of this is a crucial aspect of being an inclusive digital media user and an important step toward equity in digital spaces that are often primarily dominated by only those from a certain demographic or group. 

Overall, great work. Thanks for sharing!
