Welcome back to my blog post #10! In this blog, I will answer nine questions relate to my research project. Before answering them, I looked up a definition of the word, "zeitgeist" because all questions are about it. I attached the website's link on the blue word, zeitgeist. Thus, if you are interested in, please click it. - What is the zeitgeist topic I want to research? I want to research about social networking service such as Instagram and the effect on young people. This is because in 2000s, people were able to just enjoy new technology and post their selfies on social media. On the other hand, in 2010s, people gradually noticed the importance of digital literacy to protect their privacy particularly for young people. - What is the primary source I will use to begin my research? I will use a reliable website introducing a research result about social media and young user to begin my research. Few weeks ago, I found an article about the relationship between SNS and young people's depression rate, so I am thinking to use the article. - Who does the zeitgeist topic impact the most? My zeitgeist topic impacts the most on young SNS users particularly between 13 to 17. - When did this zeitgeist emerge? This zeitgeist emerged 2000s with Six degrees which was a social network service website. - Where does this zeitgeist impact the most? It could be anywhere in the world. This is because many countries have similar situation of social media. However, social media was originally created in the United States, so I will focus on the United States. - Why does this zeitgeist exist? This is because nowadays social media is very convenient, and many people cannot live without it. For example, they can see and post what they want. Also, some people try to get many followers and likes to be famous on the social media. - How does the zeitgeist topic make me feel (impact on your being)? This topic makes me feel sad a little bit because many people including me tend to watch their phones all time, and they think lightly of real communication. - How does the zeitgeist topic make me think (impact on your knowing)? This topic makes me think how we can make good balance between online and real communities. - How does the zeitgeist topic make me want to make change (impact on your doing)? This topic makes me want to make change the way to use social media in order to protect their privacy and built healthy relationship with other people.

Welcome back to my blog post #9! In this blog, I will read four texts and answer the question, "How do these texts speak to the spirit of our discourse community?" I provided the links below, so if you are interested in, please check them. Also, I chose a found poem as a genre for my interpretation.
We Are Many Of the many men whom I am, whom we are, I cannot settle on a single one. What must I do to distinguish myself? How can I put myself together? I never know just WHO I AM, nor how many I am, nor WHO WE WILL BE BEING. If I really need my proper self, I must not allow myself to disappear. While I am writing, I am far away; and when I come back, I have already left. I should like to see if the same thing happens to other people as it does to me, to see if as many people are as I am, and if they seem the same way to themselves. What is Literacy? Think of a Discourse as an of 'identity kit' which comes complete with an appropriate costume and instructions on how to act, talk, and often write, so as to take on a particular role that others will recognize. Discourses are inherently "ideological". Any discourses concerns itself with certain objects and puts forward certain concepts, viewpoints, and vales at the expense of others. Discourses are intimately related to the distribution of social power and hierarchical structure in society. It is sometimes helpful to say that individuals do not speak and act, but that historically and socially defined discourses speak to each other through individuals. The individual is simply the meeting point of many. To You, I Belong Historical memory makes us aware that the past is with us in the present, that previous unresolved, complicated, and multilayered events are replaying themselves in various forms in the present. This memory can be imprinted on the body. It can be imprinted on trees, stones, in taste, scent, and sound. While it can be handed down directly from one generation to the next, it can also skip generations. It can be transmitted in dreams, rituals, and visions. Historical memory is not an abstract concept. It lives in our unconscious, in the body. It is often preverbal - knowledge that cannot be adequately described using the master's tongue, the master's language. Our Discourse Community Values
Conceptualize discourse communities as social networks that frame the ethics, expectations, and exigencies of stakeholders who use situated languages to bond with others and to make meaning. Cultivate joy in writing and learning. Connect past, present, and future writing histories and knowledges. Clarify meaning for oneself. Compose in multiple genres, modes, and media to meet the moments of 21st century rhetorical situations. Create reiterative writing processes to generate and revise ideas. Construct a writer’s identity to interact with the authorial choices of others and of self. Welcome back to my blog post #8!
