Media Consumption: Daily: 4 hours during the week, 7 hours during weekends Weekly: 34-38 hours per week

Favorite Media/Technology: TikTok, Youtube, Instagram/iPhone


How do you and your family interact with media/technology?

I usually use social media apps on my phone by myself. Sometimes my mom takes my Instagram pictures because she’s a photographer. However, my mom and dad don’t have Instagram so they don’t see what I post. I also like to watch TV with my dad—our favorite show is Super Girl.

How do you and your peers interact with media/technology?

My friends and I make TikToks on the yard at school. Sometimes we video chat on Facetime or SnapChat which is really funny. We basically just send each other funny videos and teach each other new TikTok dances.

What do you use media for?

Sometimes I use the internet for homework but I usually just use it to watch YouTube videos, play games on apps, and learn TikTok dances. I don’t use Instagram as much.

What is your favorite/least favorite thing about media/technology?

My favorite thing about media and technology is that it’s hard for me to get really bored when I have so many cool things on the internet to watch and play with. I think a bad thing is that sometimes people get bullied on social media or post things that are inappropriate.
