For Bridge Project 3 – Multiple Perspectives Map, we made a map by addressing a single topic from many points of view. This was based on articles “Is Google Making Us Stupid?” and “Is Facebook Making Us Lonely?”. We visualized the comparison of opinions into seesaw and  emoticons. The article,”Is Google Making Us Stupid?” is about research and opinions to various aspects of  both psychological and working process. Similar but different, the article, “Is Facebook Making Us Lonely?” is more focused on the effects on our psychological relationship with Social Networking Service.

Self Reflection:

• When you reflect on Bridge 3, are your thoughts overall positive or negative? Why?

I’m neutral about it. I learned how to analyze articles and shared opinions with peers. However, two articles had different atmosphere(theme) about the Internet. So I thought there weren’t many of common points.

• What is the most interesting discovery you made while working on this project? (about the project, about yourself, about your group members, etc.)

         About the project, I discovered that there can be lot of points and aspects in one article. And in the process of paraphrasing into our words and making it as a visual expression, we needed many communications together.

• What were some of the most challenging moments and what made them challenging?

        Getting into the concept of the map was challenging. Because we had to contrast and bring into a comparison map. Also, the opinions in the articles were abstract and literally written, we had to make an emotion pictures to describe that sentences in recognizable senses.
