From Academia to Social Media

 In this blog post we are going to find the author of the academic journal!

Take any one author who is published within the pages of the academic journal you selected for Blog Posts 6.5 & 6.6. Now, find them on as many of the following social media networks as you can:
Provide concise but detailed answers to the following questions:
  • What is the name of the author (from the academic journal) that you selected and which social media networks were you able to find her/him on?
Ernest L. Hall is 75 years old. However, it was still surprising to me that he has no social media.
  • How would you describe the author's social media presence? What kinds of things are they talking about or sharing on social media? Write a brief description of what you learned about them through the listed social media feeds.
Since he doesn't have social media, it's hard to talk about what his social media presence is like!
  • Now return to the piece that this author published in the academic journal (from Blog Posts 6.5 & 6.6). How does their persona on social media differ from their persona in the pages of the academic journal? Be specific and cite details from both the journal and the social media posts you discovered.
Can't tell... not applicable!
  • Format this post with lots of white space, clear subheadings that label all the information, and short, clear sentences that communicate the information to your reader clearly, effectively and attractively.
