Question:

Based on the reading, what do you think social capital is?

Choose one social media (i.e., Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or others) you use often to answer the following question: Do you consider your social media friends as a form of social capital? Why or why not? If yes, how do you measure their value to you?

Tips:

1. Your response must have a minimum of 300 words in total (after-text reference list does not count) with at least 3 references to reliable sources. For the 3 references, at least 1 should be from assigned readings (please provide page number in bracket) and the other 2 can be from reliable academic/scholarly sources or popular press. Unreliable internet sources do not count.

2. All sources must be properly cited in APA format (including in-text citations and after-text references).

3. Avoid posting unsubstantiated opinions and comments. Support your arguments with specific citations of relevant theories, concepts, and examples identified in course readings or external research.

4. Use proper grammar and spelling. Informal language, frequent grammatical errors and typos may cause loss of points.
