    1. You were supposed to have a minimum of seven sources, and three of those were to be scholarly/peer-reviewed. Also, you were to use MLA or APA formatting for the list of references/sources. Also, all sources should be cited in the body of the paper.

    2. Impacts

      You paper is a bit short (only 1200 words) and these two sections (impacts and discussion) are particularly sparse.

    3. The rapid expanse of music streaming services such as Spotify, Apple Music, and more are actively contributing to the rapid downfall of the modern music industry. As music streaming platforms continue to raise royalty fees and integrate other forms of interactive media in an attempt to appeal to the average user they are neglecting the musicians who provide the content that make their platforms successful and in turn creating a new type of music industry.

      Good job, but I would have liked to see a bit more development leading up to your thesis statement.

      Good job with the number and format of your sources. URLs/DOIs should have been turned into hyperlinks. At least one of your sources is not cited in the body of your essay.

    4. Interactive media has already begun to open many doors for museums. As the field evolves toward becoming more welcoming to diverse guests, it’s only natural that part of that evolution includes interactive technology. The natural weaving of technology with other traditional museum elements as well as different hands on activities can create rich and varied experiences for guests in ways that have never been seen before. When interactive media is utilized properly in an exhibit space, it can be an incredibly useful educational tool. Bringing museums into the society of the twenty-first century has been made possible by the use of interactive technology.

    10. While the possibilities created by new technology are exciting for the future of museum work, there is also a risk that museums may become too reliant on technology being the star of an exhibit.  

      While this is very close to your thesis statement, it does leave out some aspects. Ideally the thesis statement should close out the introductory paragraph and set the direction for the following graphs.

      There should be multimedia elements to illustrate your main points.

      It doesn't appear that you used the H3 heading for the section titles

    14. People prefer to remain anonymous partly due to the fear of confrontation; anonymity gives people the ability to say anything without the concern of being targeted in the outside world.

      Good job!

    15. Very good job!

    1. References

      Good job with the sources (number and format), however the URLs/DOIs should be hyperlinks to make it easy for readers to visit the source documents.

    2. Due to cyberbullying, adolescent teens and young adults are more likely to experience symptoms of body issues, self-esteem issues, depression and anxiety when spending an extensive amount of hours on social media per day.

      This is very similar to your thesis statement, which should have been presented in the intro section.

      This is a rather ambiguous statement...it is not clear to me in which person the negativity resides?

    1. Citations

      Good job with the citations and formatting, but you were supposed to have a minimum of seven sources. Also, URLs should be hyperlinks. And finally, these should cited in the body of the paper.

    5. The internet allows for the communication of ideas and beliefs at an unprecedented level, especially between private individuals who are completely disconnected from one another by great distances, both geographic, political, and societal. While this often leads to conflict and negativity, it also fosters honesty in these interactions, particularly about beliefs and opinions. Without the social pressure to conform and avoid confrontation presented by face-to-face communication, people are more capable and more likely to honestly express their opinions online.

      Yay! You're the first paper (so far) that followed the instructions about ending the intro with the thesis statement.

    23. Addiction

      You use the term addiction in the header, but don't define it or even mention it in the following paragraph. Addiction is a clinical term that should not be used flippantly.

    24. Spending too much time on social media may cause elevated levels of physical isolation of people and lack of face-to-face communication. Social media over the years has changed immensely, and more people are using social media nowadays which will increase the risk of isolation. 

      Thesis statement (should be at the conclusion of the introduction)

      This statement appears to let parent off the hook for their role in making this possible. This technology is not inexpensive, and without the support of parents (financial and otherwise) this trend would not be going in the direction that it is.

    6.  The connectivity of Social Media brings our world together on different platforms but hurts relationships and basic communication skills that affect us in real life communication negatively.

    6. With the rise of social media, came the rise of everybody’s unrealistic expectations of what your life is supposed to look like. This is largely in part to a boom in social media “influencers” who are paid to promote certain brands, lifestyles, clothes, etc., and try to sell you a life of luxury. Influencer culture has become a toxic part of social media that has led to an increased chance of depression due to a huge “fear of missing out."

      thesis statement

    7. over millions

      access ≠ comparison...we are capable of having relationship (therefore making comparison) with no more than hundreds of people...thousands or millions only in the abstract

    8. “flex,” for lack of a better word, on the people around us,

      this jargon may be a bit too obscure for your audience...at least for me :-)

    9. Good job!

    1. To make remix culture thrive is to upheld the copyrights laws to protect both parties of people that make original ideas and to let others use those ideas to give it a different meaning, by being able to make it their own concept with a twist on it. Remix culture is a major impact because without it media does not expand.

      what?

    5. For the most part remix culture is not anti-copyright and also its not a form of plagiarism.

      Okay, this sentence makes sense...but will need to be supported with evidence in the following sections.

    6. Remix the work of copyright holders to get rid of the lawful act to be held from not using others work but if you create your own way then what is stopping them from taking your original and making it their own.

      Ditto...this is incomprehensible.

      This should have its own heading, e.g. References or Works Cited Good selection of sources/references...however, the format is not consistent with APA or MLA. Also, the entire citation should not be a hyperlink, just the URL or DOI. Also, each source should be cited in the body of your essay.

    1. Starting with a video, without adequate introduction and explanation, is not recommended. Also, this video is not listed in your References.

    2. References

      You were supposed to have a minimum of seven sources, and three of those were to be scholarly/peer-reviewed. Also, you were to use MLA or APA formatting for the list of references/sources.

    3. Our data is not for sale, and it shouldn’t be.

      actually it IS for sale...and the goal of your essay is to build a convincing argument for what it shouldn't be

    4. Imagine you’re a grieving mother. You lost your child, and there is nothing but pain to fill that void. Along comes a neural network to fill that void. The speech patterns, personality, and knowledge of your loved one could be impregnated into an artificial intelligence bot with great accuracy. The initial attempt of doing this, dubbed “Roman Bot,” was curated by family and friends. But in the world we live where our text messages can be read by dubious eyes, who is to say nefarious attempts won’t be made. Google Duplex is a modern system that can do various things such as schedule appointments for the user and respond to questions along the way. This system is beneficial to the user, but a project lead brings up an interesting point. “While a system capable of generating responses may make its subject more reactive, Traum warns that being able to construct reactions would mean you could put words in someone else’s mouth.” This ability to create a person is only going to progress further with our further exploration into the artificial intelligence world, and the implications that come with it will certainly haunt us.

      This is indeed an interesting and potentially troubling scenario, but I'm not sure that it fits with your focus on privacy.

    5. The government shouldn’t be able to spy on us nor should they have the means to do so.

      But should government have the right to conduct surveillance for the purpose of national security? And if so, where is the line?

    6. What we must then ask ourselves is whether companies who have been proven to use our data against our consent in the past and present can be trusted to protect us now and in the future.

    9. Online Privacy in the modern workplace

      privacy in the workplace is not mentioned in your thesis statement...not sure why it is receiving so much of your attention

    10. These bills are paramount for privacy and should be held with the utmost importance.

      ?

    11. Your personal data is also being used to tailor advertisements that you will click.

      One sentence about privacy issues related to advertising and you're off to the next subject: government privacy breaches

    12. “Your password or your paycheck” the authors state, “two new bills have also been introduced to Congress that would prohibit employers from seeking employees' and job candidates' passwords.”

      It is not necessary to link to sources or specific quotes as long as they are cited properly. In these cases the link are not usable as they lead readers to a login to access CSU-Pueblo library databases...which may not be available to some readers.

    13. When services are provided online at little or no cost the end result is somebody is benefiting somewhere off of user privacy - and the data is being used in many unimaginable and nefarious ways.

      The opening section should end with your thesis statement.

      Good job identifying key terms and providing definitions. Citations?

    18. The rise of social media has made fandoms toxic and even dangerous. Where once fandoms were people joining together to share their love of a certain show, or series of books, films, games, etc, now fandoms of all kinds use social media to harass and even threaten others. From the people who support a certain media, to those who create it, fandoms now social media to manipulate people through online campaigns and false information to make certain projects fail. By connecting everyone, social media has brought out the worst of many.

      Which reference is cited here?

    4. While this paper discusses the negative effects our devices and social media have on us, there are also some benefits to the whole theory as well. Social media enables adolescents to enhance their communication skills and social connections. The websites and applications allow these young adults to make new friends, exchange ideas and pictures, and develop new interests and experiments with new forms of self-expression (Elina Mir, Caroline Novas). Most adolescents today use social media to build on social communication and friendships as they extend it to the online world. While they might not necessarily be meeting new people all the time, but the teen users are “enriching” their currently existing friendships all while online.

      Based on the opening sentence of this section I was expecting a more fully articulated argument for the benefits of devices and social media.

    5. urged parents to force teens to take a reprieve

      hmmm...that might invite trouble

    6. Recent teen suicides have been blamed on cyber-bullying, and social media posts depicting ‘perfect’ lives may be taking a toll on teens’ mental health.

Cyber-bullying and harassment increasing levels of depression and suicide for young adults. While the bullying continues to make its presence on the internet, many young adults have reported that social media is essential for their friendships on and offline.

    1. You were supposed to link terms that appear in your essay to five Pecha Kucha presentation pages.

    2. So when these athletes received these pay stubs they were a shocked and mad on how little of money they were awarded for not knowing they were eventually going to get paid. 

      The intro should conclude with your thesis statement

    3. Still no media, e.g. photos or video. I see where you tried to insert two images, but they are not displaying correctly.
