FIU Screen Time and Performance of Social Media Applications Discussion

I NEED TO ANSWER THE FOLLOWING 4 QUESTIONS

1.Do you agree with the article headline that screen time causes your grades to drop? Why or why not? Be specific! Defend your response with critical thinking (that is, a good two or three paragraphs are needed). You can incorporate ideas you discussed with your group, but you must hand in your own answer to this question. I expect that your answer will overlap a lot with the answer you gave for your pre-class assignment, however, I hope that you will edit and refine your answer based on your conversation with your peers.

2.What do you think would be a better headline for this article (one that is less misleading)?

3.Design a simple experimental study you think could test whether screen time actually causes your grades to drop. Note your hypothesis, your independent variable (the variable you would manipulate or change), and your dependent variable (the variable you would measure), and your expected outcome (your predictions).

4.Discuss the list of research steps that you came up with for your pre-class assignment with your group members.

Which events / items came up on the majority of lists among your group members? Which events / items were rare (that is, which items were listed by group members that were not common)? For this last “rare” group, are the items useful or not so useful for actually conducting research
