Blog Numba One

This assignment showed me a few things. It showed me that preteen girls don't care what you have to say and most middle-aged people don't know how to use modern technology. The middle-aged participants said their only sources of media were newspapers and a device called a "television". Either they did not understand the complexities of the internet, or they are from the 'old school' and prefer their media in a non-electrical document form. The youngest participant, my sister, was far too busy engaging in some stupid penguin game to give me quality answers. Her views on media seemed to be very narrow. She decided that media wasn't cool enough to talk about at the time. The real shining star in this questionnaire was Erin, a junior girl at BHS. The youth of today are more in tune with new gadgets and fads, which increases their exposure to media. Erin's answers were more detailed and were of a better quality than the others.
In conclusion, if you were to graph the data found here, it would be parabolic in shape. The absolute maximum beings Erin's media savvy, with the lowest of the lowest of the low being my sister's responses. My mother and step dad would have finished somewhere in the middle, which is still losing in my book.


This assignment was really dumb fun.
