What I am most proud of in my writing
Through my writing this semester I have learned where I excel and where I fall behind in regards to writing. I am most proud of my organization of data and formatting my writing in clear defined ways. My approach to starting projects is well thought out designs and structure.
What I like most about my learning
I have learned much from this semester in regards to web content and simply how I go about watching digital media. I found the mix of creativity and Empirical data gathering to be enjoyable when learning. Learning Key concepts was another highlight as I have gone through projects, and when making out of class observations.
What do I like most about my essay
As I continue to write my essay, I have found that the content I have made over the semester has shown growth. Earlier content had less usage of key concepts and was less engaging with the audience. Now my essay shows the progression of my work with examples from assignments.
With each assignment I incorporate key concepts in my approach, which has altered how I look at the web content around me. While observing accounts for Content Analysis, findings allowed me to look at web content in a new lens.
Final check in post
As the semester comes to an end, I take with me the knowledge and information gained over posting and research projects. Although I have learned much from my writing, I want to continue to maintain an analytical mindset when approaching social media and web content. Some final questions I have regarding web writing for the future include...
How can I continue to challenge my ways of thinking when it comes to analyzing future web content?
What are some efficient methods for better understanding/tracking data in regards to web content?

Moving forward
Having a strong revision process is the key for any paper/project/presentation. Without editing and refining, a project is only half done. Through technical and stylistic revision, a project can gain its most essential features and for viewers this is what can make the piece look professional. I plan on using the methods from this class in my future work, by incorporating my step by step guides I have created. Each project has a different goal, and for this class the guide has been able to touch on almost any field. This is very helpful for future work that could take any form.
Developing style
Style has played a large role in how I designed my research project. I have spent a considerable amount of time on templates and background ideas to best capture the vibes that I am going for. I have also spent a large bit of time on designing each slide to be unique and eye catching without being to distracting. The use of graphs/charts and images, helps the viewer to understand the data better. All of this has accumulated to help me build my style, and overall the argument of my paper has gained considerable strength in its purpose.
Final revision
My research project has gone through many stages to get to the point it is currently at now. My final revision process has allowed me to create data graphs and charts that are easy to understand. While organizing my findings with great detail. After a few iterations of the overall look of the presentation I have decided on a template that best suits the vibe and is easy on the eyes. I have spent several hours analyzing the data and formatting it to be appealing, while also rereading for any grammatical errors. The most important part has been taking in peer reviews to gain suggestions on how to improve the overall project.
Thursday check in
In my check in for today I am continuing my efforts on observing my research. My presentation has made great progress and is forming into a something I am very happy with.
I have looked at my peers reviews for not only my own work, but theirs too. This has allowed me to make beneficial adjustments to my own work. I am focusing on the overall presentation and looks in this stage, by incorporating a template and organizing the data in an easily digestible way. Graphs and charts are now being added also, which has certainly improved the overall flow.

How does the data answer my research question?
I have mentioned in previous posts my varying types of data, and would like to know if anyone is viewing their personal information in a different light.
I have hard focused on my initial Likes, Comments, Reposts, and Shares and would like to receive any input on using them in unique ways. The data I have gathered so far is certainly adequate in conveying my research, but a fresh pair of eyes always adds to any project. If anyone is doing their research on Instagram accounts too, I would love to hear any feedback!
What data matters?
Some forms of social platforms are limited in the public data provided, for my research it is important to observe as much as possible to get more accurate results. For my platform (Instagram) I have observed Likes, comments, reposts, and shares. I have also observed the sudden changes in these areas and have taken a closer look at release dates of certain accounts projects. I am observing Instagram story's, although only as support as they are brief (as they disappear in 24 hours). This data can help me by being formatted into graphs to better show my research as a whole.
Ideas and suggestions
I have come up with several ideas for organizing and formatting my data to fit the multiple goals of my research. By focusing on big overlapping goals that connect all three accounts, I can more easily understand the pros and cons of different approach's. However, I am also observing through my data and graphs, individual specialties within each account. By comparing graphs and data I can visibly show the results to the viewer. I am looking forward to observing other detailed plans of my peers as well as how they are organizing their graphs and which types of graphs they are using.
Thursday Check In
This week I have decided to follow my formula of checking the accounts for the research and updating information as I go. It has been informative in finding which accounts really offer the results I am searching for. Updating my presentation has been proceeding steadily too, with a lot of data starting to be incorporated. I have locked in a template that fits the purpose of the research and included images that are striking for the viewer. The composition is coming together and overall it has been fun to analyze the inforamtion I have gathered.

Update on my current draft
My process for this research paper has changed half way through, as I decided to alter my initial hypotheses and research paper. I have now gathered my data and have begun examining each account intently for any and all observations that would help me. I have also begun documenting changes and organizing my thoughts onto paper. I have brainstormed several subheadings so far and am in the process of applying them towards the collected data.
Thursday check in
This week I have been studying my accounts chosen for the research. As I delve deeper into each account I have kept track of similarities and differences between the three Instagram accounts. One account is purely DnD focused, another is majority DnD content, and the last is semi DnD content.
This breakup has allowed me to organize different kinds of audience approaches, and has allowed me to observe the "efficiency" of catering to the entirety of the DnD audience as a whole. I chose this on purpose to better understand the best possible approach and the effectiveness of each accounts types of posts within this field. I have made immense progress on my data thus far, and plan on honing in on these details as my research for this project continues.

Original Content Writing
How are you determining meaningful data? What method will you use to collect it?
I am determining if data is meaningful or not to my research based on the contents of the video and if it is relevant to my research question and hypothesis. My research question outlines a few specific things about the content I should be analyzing. The content should focus on the cat, the age of the cat being kitten aged (0-2 years old), and the types of content which go into a few categories, Rehabilitation, Care, or Daily Life of the cat and their human. As long as the video contains these attributes and falls into one or more of the types of content it can be considered meaningful data to my research.
In the beginning I struggled with finding "meaningful" content, as for me lots of the content I observed was meaningful in some degree. By limiting the conditions for what is acceptable it certainly can make this analysis easier. I have decided to use a more community driven approach with emotional ties. This has gained a lot of connection between creators and the community in my research alone.

how will your research question add to the ongoing conversation about content strategy?
My research question will be heavily rooted in terms of the correlation between popularity and sustained content. I strategically chose accounts with varying subscriber counts to showcase the difference in content strategy among different states of accounts. Those accounts with high subscriber counts likely have some sort of good content strategy that has a consistent audience, while those with low subscriber counts have content strategy that is actively growing or needs improvement.
I like this approach of a varied subscriber data set. it is true that the most popular accounts have success for a reason, although this doesn't diminish the efforts by lower subscriber accounts. Seeing what makes accounts popular and why lower subscriber accounts struggle, is very beneficial and worth the effort. It will be interesting to see your observations in this process and what your conclusions are at the end.
Original post 3
I have determined that meaningful data can be found in every post. Determining what your goals are and what you aim to achieve in the data observed, can certainly narrow this view down. I am choosing content that is more recent, and that has emotional connection towards the community. I have observed the 90 posts and have concluded that the most meaningful are those that cater towards the target audience. By selecting the posts that fit this motive I have already made wide strides in my goals.
