After logging my media use, I realized that I just use Snapchat, Facebook and Instagram when I\u2019m bored. I logged Thursday and Saturday which are two days that were completely different for me. Thursday\u2019s are always long for me because I have 3 classes. Saturday, I went to the football game in Kentucky. So the two days I chose to log were a lot different from each other.<\/p>\n
Thursday I had 3 classes, Government, Psychology, and Math. I\u2019m so rushed in the mornings because I\u2019m not really a morning person and don\u2019t have time to check my social media accounts so I usually check them once I get to class. During class, I used my email, and eLC. In government, my professor uses a PowerPoint to lecture from. I took my notes the night before so that in class I can follow along and pay attention to what the professor was saying. I used my laptop in class to follow along on the PowerPoint. I had also during that time accessed Excel to calculate a grade for a class. In Psychology, I took notes by hand on the lecture. We watched several videos in class that were related to the lecture. We also used this website called menti.com to do like a polling thing that had a few questions on it. On Thursday, I also read some of a chapter out of my government book and listened to my music while reading. \u00a0In Math, I had already taken the notes for class. While in class, I listened to lecture and did the examples in my notes throughout class. Throughout the day, I periodically checked my Snapchat, Instagram and Facebook. It would only be for a few minutes or when I was bored.<\/p>\n
Saturday was a lot different than Thursday. It was a busy day so I wasn\u2019t really on social media that much. I checked my accounts when I got up to see what went on and see if I had any notifications. My parents had the T.V. on in the hotel room while I was getting ready. We tailgated with some of our friends and while doing that I checked social media a lot because I was bored majority of that time. While tailgating, we watched some football games on T.V. While at the game, I couldn\u2019t access my social media accounts because there wasn\u2019t any service in the stadium so I tried to post pictures to Snapchat but nothing would load. There were videos and music played while at the game.<\/p>\n
From logging my media usage, it really shocked me. I realized that when I\u2019m busy I try not to check my social media. I normally check it when I\u2019m bored. Before this assignment, I guess I didn\u2019t realize that things like, taking notes in class, reading out of a textbook, watching videos or listening to music was really consider media. So really, I\u2019m constantly using media but didn\u2019t realize it till now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
