Sounds of nature from the lake shore path. The path offers students a scenic view while they walk from their dorms to campus. #j202#lab306#SoundCloud

Sounds of students scanning into Memorial library. Hundreds of students shuffle in and out of this library everyday to study and have access to some of the oldest books on campus. #lab306#j202#SoundCloud

@MasonHolcombe I think that both add different qualities. While ads are a great way of putting the product in front of people’s faces, good PR is essential for people to act on what the ad is selling . #UWJ201 #313
@JonathanDraege3 I agree that while ads can be beneficial, it seems like good PR can do what ads do and more. PR offers a cleaver and creative way to sell a product, without being so in your face about it. #UWJ201 #313
@fosler2_uw I think corporations use content that is trending In order to appeal to the consumer. Social justice is very relevant today and brands want to stay relevant. #UWJ201 #313
@uwjeffreyli I think that Facebook needs to take large steps to program more humane algorithms. One of the ideas discussed was having computer science professions also major in psychology. I think that would be a productive first step in moving forward for FB #UWJ201 #313
@clarapadgham I don’t think this is a future problem, as the repercussions of getting news from social media can be seen today. A prime example is the attack on the Capitol. Misinformation on social media lead to an actual attack on democratic process. #UWJ201 #313
In lecture we watched a documentary on Facebook and their naivety of the negative impacts it could have. How could they have done a better job at creating a more humane platform? #UWJ201 #313
@EllaBuffalo I think social media platforms like Facebook plays a large role in contributing to polarization. They only populate feeds with content that agrees with one side via algorithms. In turn, people only view content that tells them they are right. #UWJ201 #313
@RonnieSuarez11 I don’t think so. The Onion is not trying to deceive its audience and they make it clear that they’re platform is satire and should not be taken seriously. #UWJ201 #313
Yesterday in lecture Scott Dikkers spoke to us about the onion and how it operates. What are the benefits of using political satire in today’s society? #UWJ201 #313
@whomstisnat I don’t necessarily think that people don’t think critically anymore. I think people are more overwhelmed in the state of media today. The media throws so much info at us that it’s hard to decipher what’s true or false. #UWJ201 #313
In lecture we discussed news deserts and how people in them tend to read more extreme news. As younger generations primarily get news online, will this be a problem in the future? Or will these areas still gravitate toward extreme news? #UWJ201 #313
@chucksphillips Among many different factors, I think the biggest reason people retreat is the fear of rejection and ultimately caring what others think of them. #UWJ201 #313
@mollyjgoldberg I think in today’s political landscape, people tend to automatically attack opinions that aren’t their own. With so much hostility, it’s natural to want to retreat. By creating a safer more understanding environment, people would be more willing to share #UWJ201 #312
