[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I work in academia - although at a large school with tens of thousands of students. The effects of social media that I see are:[b] Their views are based on quick sound bites and headlines. Most are very poorly informed about the positions they hold or the issues they are arguing for or against. They often aren't even aware of the fuller context of the quip or headline or clip they saw that shaped their view. There is a lot of group think as most who hold similar views access the same social media content and due to algorythms, they aren't exposed to views outside their own in any kind of meaningful way. It is kind of battle of the group think mind based on headlines and sound bites on both sides. [/b] - [/quote] I agree with most of your observations, but the above is certainly not limited to Gen Z. Take a look at what boomers are posting on Facebook and it's no different that what Gen Z is doing. [/quote]
