About Me

My photo
My name is Alexis and I am enrolled in a Media Analysis class at THS. One of things that has sparked my interests was an assignment we did on pictures that had been modified or changed to make someone look better or to portray a certain image. Another assignment was one where we had to write out scripts showing the effects of violence in the media. The last one was where we got to act out skits that our other class mates wrote out. Outside of school I lead a very normal, laid back life. I have my goals set very high and I try to keep myself in order to make sure nothing can hinder me from doing what I want to do in life.

Growing Up Online

I think the video was very good. It kept my interest throughout the whole video. I also think it was very opinionative. The one lady that was head of the PTA was, I think, was over analytical and over reacting. Not every kid that has pages on Myspace and Facebook are being exposed to online predators. Majority of kids exposed to online predators know how to deal with them, they simply ignore them. I think that Myspace and Facebook are worried about to much by parents. They are blowing it up and making a big deal about nothing. They should be confident that they have taught their children the correct way to handle themselves against people in the world.
