Then answer the following questions.  Reflections are due this Monday 10/10/11

1. Without having experienced a social media withdrawal, how can you imagine it would it affect your daily routine?

2. Once you have answered 1 above, complete a self-imposed “unplugging” from one or more social networks that you typically use. Fully dis-engage from your iPhone, Facebook, Twitter or other social tool. How long were you able to stay unplugged? What was easiest/hardest about disengaging? What did you learn in the process?

3. What alternatives to completely unplugging might be good suggestions for your peers as they learn to balance social engagement in online and real-world environments?

Your reflection can include details about what you did and which tool you chose, but the majority of your writing should reflect your inquiry about and understanding of how the exercise impacted you.
