LAst task: Review another team's work


Topic: The Influence of Social Medias in the Next Generation Society

Address: http://fournations.wikidot.com/

1. Love the enviroment of Wikidot.

2. Structure - understandable and easy to follow

Plot: Ideal vs Real vs Online me.

Research question was to understand social media powers on us, analyse downsides as well read researchers about personality development in modern days. Also discuss legal aspects and threats in the field.

Methods - how they didi it was not mentioned or was not clearly visible.

Results were presented as essay. Framework was philosophical as well some psychological lines were brought in “forming self-esteem” and “self-image”.

Discussion – as it is an essay it lacks clear differences in structure (all is mixed) and there would be a need to present the findings in the end as conclusion.

Language - some text was not so easy to follow (the idea was somehow hidden where we are going with that), in English sense it was ok.

References – don’t understand the differences in bibliography and references. References were poorly presented; it is not a correct way. Bibliography lacked some needed information eg. where these articles were published.

In the beginning there were promise of presenting researches in this field, there were less of them. I would expect more analyse of academic background. At the same time there were interesting findings of nowadays and from 10-20 year ago, it would be also been interesting to read what have happened in last 10 years, as the development has not started now, it has shaped the society more than we let to see.

In the conclusion wit was an interesting piece to read, people have done their work everybody 1,5 pages. It gives some interesting insights, but it should be looked further as there were no solutions how we should look at the problem differently. At the same time it shows that different people with different experiences were working on the problem and this gives some points for the interdisctlipinary area. So task executed correlcty.
