analysis off, I asked myself what do these sources say about how can social media be used to influence people’s trust in the government. A large number of people potentially get some of their news from social media and this is proven by a 2016 Pew Research Center survey, which states 69 percent of US adults use social media. This also makes a lot of people vulnerable to receiving and believing false information. The authors of “Campus politics, student societies and social media” said “The very ease of

Technology has the potential to make our society a better place but it also could lead to the downfall of humanity. First and foremost, our new technology causes isolation between people. I’ve seen people ignored in favor of their cellphones. The Pew Research institute found that Americans discussion networks have shrunken by about a third since 1985 and have become less diverse because they contain few non-family members. This social isolation is caused by the new technology that pushes us further and

child. The Pew Research Center did studying to figure out if there is a connection between parents controlling their kids and if the child rebels. Surveys from the Pew Research Center found “...this monitoring is also likely to lead to arguments between parent and child” (Somini Sengupta para 14). There is study that shows that if the parents are controlling and or having surveillance that arguments will happen because the kid is pushing back and is going to rebel. The Pew Research Center found this

Ignorance is the lack of knowledge or information.  In the root of ignorance, it is natural to not know information once a person is born; this is sometime referred to as the age of innocence.  Ignorance becomes unacceptable through education; if a student does not know, a student does not pass.  Being a well-informed citizen in a complex society can be overwhelming with today's stifled and persuasive media, yet there is no report card to fail adults, often no penalty to pay and seemingly no consequences

increasing trend of social media use is also ever present. There were almost 2 billion people on Facebook in 2016 alone and 400 million on Instagram (Chaffey, 2106, p.1). Furthermore, approximately “one-in-five Americans share their faith online” (Pew Research Center, 2015, p.1) • What is the growth potential? o The growth potential is limitless due to the fact that many churches are not taking advantage of such services and the overarching mission of each church is to reach people. • What are barriers do

significant amount of debate. Does it offer major value to political parties hoping to gain traction with key demographics? Or does it simply detract from the real message, creating a giant distraction that does not turn into actual voter turnout? Pew Research Institute and others have shown that social media popularity has actually led to improvements in voter turnout and that there is a positive correlation between a candidate’s Facebook likes and his or her actual voter numbers. This conclusively shows

Introduction: From the beginning of times it has always been the women’s responsibility to rear the children and keep the house tidy, traditional wifely duties. Why? Because kids come from inside of women? Pew Research Center, reports that men spend 4.8 hours a week (in 2011) more with their children than they did in 1965 and six more hours a week (in 2011) on household duties and chores. Women actually spend less time than they did in 1965, a reported fourteen hours less a week in 2011 (USA Today

what Alessondra Villegas, a researcher at Fordham University, states in her journal. She claims that parents must be able to develop clear rules and that parents must also be firm with the boundaries that are set forth (Villegas 2-3). In Villegas’s research she found that parents use technology to watch their children. Villegas concluded that, “on average, mothers claim to use the television as a babysitter for at least one hour a day,” (6). Her work , which was published in the New York State Communication

at a young age that if you do not want to be responsible for the situation, you blame it on someone else. As we get older, we begin to realize how important taking responsibility really is. In fact, 93% of the 3,000 parents surveyed by the Pew Research Center said that responsibility was the number one character trait they wanted their child to possess. Ron Kurtus, the creator of School for Champions, said, “Being responsible and taking responsibility for the things that may go wrong is an admirable

American Life Project survey, half of the experts surveyed predicted that gamification, or the use of games by educators and companies to turn work into a game, would become a major factor in education, health care and the workplace by 2020 (Pew Research Center). I believe that this gamification going on throughout schools could help student learn. Elizabeth Box, a civics teacher in a Florida middle school, started noticing a decline in kids’ engagement. They didn’t care, their parents didn’t care,
