Here's Week 7's questions! Woohoo!
1.) The Metzger, Flanaign, & Zwarun (2003) article discusses students’ use of the Internet as a resource. The article talks about the amount of time spent online being heavily devoted to academics. Since this article is almost 6 years old, how has the ratio of academic to non-academic computer use changed with the creation of social media tools including instant messaging and social networking site? Secondly, have students improved their ability to find reliable sources on the web or has more available information made it more difficult?
2.) How does the online disinhibition effect affect the way students conduct themselves in an online environment? If so, do all six factors Suler (2004) presents in his article contribute to online disinhibition or are some of those factors negated in an online environment?
