This project allowed students to learn how social media impacts its users. Students looked at statistics and articles to determine their opinions on the impacts of social media usage in their everday life.

After working in this module and completing this project, I learned that social media is more prevalent in my life than I thought. Prior to this module and project, I had never known that some of the apps I use everday could qualify as social media. This made me re-evaluate how much time I devote to my phone.

I've included a link to the website if you're curious about what your results would be! Click on the image to follow the link.

Prior to taking the quiz, I thought I was a moderate user of social media. I didn't believe I was addicted, but I also acknowledged that I relied on it to a certain extent. The result I received was "You're fairly reliant on social media, but there are far worse culprits!", which proved my prediction correct. I do think I would be happier if I could stop "doom scrolling" on occasion. Doom scrolling is where you sit down to check social media and end up scrolling for an hour or two at a time. I suppose the quiz made me want to change the habits I've formed around social media usage.
