Do Now 11/6 Teens and Social Media

1. What are 3 things you learned that you did not know?
-says that 74% of teen girls agree that “most girls my age use social networking sites to make themselves look cooler than they are.”                 

-Critical peer analysis is understood and expected from their peers; in fact, it is the purpose of maintaining an account for a teen. Consequently, teens believe that brands are susceptible to the same standard online, which is why they provide feedback in order to inspire change.
 -Many teens told us that they just felt like different people on these sites and thought that people they see online often act very differently on social media from how they act in person and at school.” Perhaps this means that teens feel they need to maintain a façade online and are not yet comfortable enough to convey their true selves in the digital space.

2. Which statistics apply to you or your friends?

That we maintain a facade between online life and real life.

3. How can you use social media to advance your personal branding?
