Research: You will also research another example where social media was used effectively to bring a major group of people together, make some change in government, or overthrow a leader. This can be a situation as large as the Arab Spring or as small as an event or protest that happened in the town where you live.
Do not use another example related to Arab Spring. Please find something different.
Reflect: In your paper, reflect on the event you chose and how it is similar to the Arab Spring. How have transmedia and social media specifically been used to spread the event’s message? Please share details about the event and include a URL to a website or article talking about the situation.
This paper will be shorter, around 300 words. Focus on writing an introductory paragraph defining the event and how it relates to Arab Spring. In the supporting or middle paragraphs, give us details into how transmedia was used to spread the message or meetings for the event. Then, close the paper with a concluding paragraph. Please read the sample A paper below the directions.
The format of every Read, Research, and Reflect (RRR) task should be the same. Follow the guidelines below:
Use 12-point font for the entire paper. Please single-space your paper throughout, and leave one-inch margins on all four sides.
Include the name of the assignment as the title of your paper.
Your paper will be evaluated based on grammar, understandability, structure, and punctuation. Communicate clearly, proofread, and spell-check. Make sure your work is original, as all papers will be checked for plagiarism. If you need extra help with writing, contact the Writing Lab for support.
Do not include the prompts or questions in your response. You should synthesize all the ideas from the three parts into one paper. Do not include lists, bullet points, or section headings in your paper. In other words, write your response in prose.
Cite sources throughout your paper using MLA formatting. For instance, if you quote someone, you will put quotes around what they said and reference the date. Please research the MLA style. And read the questions and answers in this link below for further support.
