Post Presentation reflection
I had to present my slideshow to the whole class, so it was harder to get feedback directly. I presented a study that claimed that new media such as online news may be fragmenting the audiences and specializing thier webpages to focus on only specific topics that particular demographic may want to hear. Even though there was little research done in this area, I found it intersting. I cant say that I exactly agree with what was said, but I was simply testing this idea to the class to see how they felt about it. The majority of the feedback that I recieved from the class was mostly in disagreement with the idea of online media being the seeds of fragmetaion. I think If I had presented all the hard data that was presented in the original document I would have been more convincing, but I only had 5 minuted to get my point across. Overall I thought my presentaion went as planned even though I seemed to get some raised eyebrows from most of the class.
