Intra-party Conflict Infographic:<\/strong> Learning Outcome 1 considers creating messages that are appropriate to the audience, purpose, and context. These items show that I can find relevant academically sourced information and create an artifact that adapts to the audience that I am sharing it with. I created this item in Fall of 2021 in Social Identity and Intergroup Communication. The purpose of this assignment was to create a graphic that shares information on a particular type of conflict within an identity group. This particular infographic was targeted at my peers\/classmates, aimed at informing them about this topic and sharing about the types and role that intra-party conflict plays in today\u2019s society and public discourse. This applies to learning outcome 1 because I created this infographic utilizing academic research to share information with a specific audience in an easily digestible manner.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Digital Storytelling Project<\/strong>: Learning Outcome 1 considers creating messages that are appropriate to the audience, purpose, and context. These items show that I can find relevant academically sourced information and create an artifact that adapts to the audience that I am sharing it with. The purpose of this digital storytelling project was to create a type of multimedia that engages an audience and shares people\u2019s stories in a creative manner. It also works to incorporate principles of digital storytelling such as serial structure, personal presence, social framework, multiple proscenia, and platform proscenia. I then assisted in the creation of this presentation to share our project with our fellow classmates, creating this slide deck to share the application of these principles within our digital storytelling project, which was created on instagram and a website.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Postmodernism in Hocus Pocus 2<\/strong>: Learning Outcome 3 aims at ensuring that I am able to answer communication questions with appropriate research methods. This looks at communication research and my ability to utilize a variety of methodology and being able to distinguish these. In this specific artifact, I made use of critical methods. I created this item in fall of 2022 in Television Criticism. The purpose of this assignment was to look at a piece of media, I looked at Hocus Pocus 2, and analyzed it under one of the critical theory lenses that we studied throughout the semester, and I chose postmodernism. This particular paper was targeted at Dr. Glantz, but could have a wider audience of individuals who have watched the movie. This demonstrates my ability to take one of these advanced theories and very clearly break it down and apply it to a piece of media, evaluating it under the lens of communication research.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Final Dissemination Project about the Effects of Online Dating<\/strong>: Learning Outcome 1 considers creating messages that are appropriate to the audience, purpose, and context. These items show that I can find relevant academically sourced information and create an artifact that adapts to the audience that I am sharing it with. I created this item in spring 2022 in Media Psychology. The purpose of this assignment was to explore media effects and explain them in a way that is understandable to a certain audience. This particular instagram account about the effects of online dating and computer mediated communication was targeted at young people who use dating websites and applications. Specifically it was people between the ages of 18-29, hence why we used instagram since this platform is highly utilized by this population and both interactive and informative. We applied the principles of media psychology to our research on the effects of online dating to share with a specific audience, using an appropriate platform for the topic. Here is a link to the instagram page.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Undergraduate Research-Visual Communication in Politics:<\/strong>\u00a0 Learning Outcome 3 aims at ensuring that I am able to answer communication questions with appropriate research methods.

I analyzed campaign logos and what makes them effective, and also explored their greater impact on voter choice. I got to employ research methods like qualitative analysis and focus groups, applying these communication research methods to a new research project that I was interested and passionate about.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
