We learn best when we do not only read things, but also apply our knowledge and use what we have learned in our personal contexts and lives. For these reason, we have two activities prepared for you. Please try to engage with both, but if you are struggling with time, prioritize the second task.
For this activity, we want to give you the opportunity to see some activist social media accounts in action! Below, we have provided some sample posts, and if you click on them you will be sent to the user's account page. We invite you to choose one post from below, and post a reply to the forum, answering at least one of the following questions:
- what are the things that algorithms love about this post?
- how does the post manage to engage users?
- what did you personally find interesting about this post, so that you would consider using it for your own social media communication as well?
