After reading the text and listening to “Finding the Self in Selfie, (Links to an external site.)” respond to the following (you determine the appropriate lengths):

1. List two spaces where you communicate and the associated audiences within each space (such as Canvas and Academic Discourse Community). Discuss how the space impacts the written communication, how the communication practices of the group impact the writing, and how you negotiate and navigate the intersection of space and audience.
2. In “Finding the Self in Selfie,” Jane, Julia, and Ella mention the “unspoken rules” of different digital spaces they occupy and discuss how interpreting comments requires readers to “read between the lines.” What are some unspoken rules associated with the spaces you mentioned in the previous question or other spaces? How do you read between the lines?
3. Jane, Julia, and Ella also discuss the connection between relevance and online presence and admit that far more of their time is spent reading and interpreting posts than posting. How do comments connect to connection, and how does the ability to use language impact relevance? Do you agree with their interpretation, and is their input still relevant?
4. (How) Has your understanding of language and its use changed over this term?
