Hi! My name is Erika Petersen. As a young adult, I have recently been drawn to the idea of how communication has changed over time. Obviously, one of the biggest changes that has occurred in communication has been through social media and scrolling through short videos, reels, TikToks, shorts, etc. It has become such a huge part of our lives that I am sure it is affecting our communication habits in more ways than one. I have no evidence supporting this claim yet, but that is what I aim to do through this platform! I will post my findings here every other week and, hopefully, further my knowledge on the subject and that of those who come across this page.
