INSTRUCTIONS
There are two significant concerns related to research in Social Psychology are (1) the nearly exclusive use of undergraduate students as participants, and (2) reliance on lab experiments.
For this question, choose a topic of current concern related to social psychology and propose an experiment that uses a real-world setting and does not use university students (exclusively) as participants.
Include the following sections/headings in your research proposal:
Problem: Must be a problem/topic related to a Social Psychology construct.
Rationale: Why is it important to study this issue (how will people benefit from the knowledge gained)?
Research Question: Should be brief, clear, based on existing knowledge.
Participants: selection criteria and/or process of selection (may not use a convenience sample of undergraduate students). Include an estimated number, basic demographics, etc.
Overview of the Experiment: Tell what type of non-lab research you are proposing (such as field experiments, internet research, diary methods, ambulatory assessment, and trace measures), explain why this is the best choice for your study, and describe how the experiment will be conducted. (You must choose the best choice, not easiest one)
Describe what would be done to ensure validity and reliability for your experiment.
Ethical Considerations: Choose one ethical concern (outlined on page 45-17 of Aronson et al.; I attached the file below) and explain how your proposed study will adhere to it. -

“Exploring the Neo-Colonial Dynamics of Digital Nomadism on TikTok: A Critical Postcolonial Analysis” Exploring Neo-Colonial Dynamics in Digital Nomadism: A Study of TikTok Content and Community Research Question: How does TikTok’s portrayal of digital nomadism reflect and perpetuate neo-colonial dynamics, and what insights
In the field of Digital Hustle, where people seek and utilize the opportunities presented by the digital side of the world to gain economic value or pursue their goals. Understanding digital nomadism as portrayed on platforms like TikTok has significant importance. Digital nomadism is a lifestyle where people can work and travel at the same time, due to their set of skills. This lifestyle is fully linked to the spirit of Digital Hustle, where human beings seek to maximize their autonomy and flexibility in the chase of professional and personal goals. By exploring how TikTok portrays digital nomadism, we can gain knowledge into how this way of life is commodified, romanticized and seen by others in the digital space.
The rise of digital nomadism, supported by many platforms like TikTok, shows us the sudden connection between globalization, technology and culture. In recent years digital nomadism became really popular among young individuals. Even with the popularity the topic lacks scholar research into how the concept interacts with neo-colonialist dynamics. Therefore, this research is done to fill in this gap by examining the TikTok model of the digital nomad lifestyle through the lens of neo-colonialism.
This research will demonstrate that the digital nomadism movement tries to empower positive aspects of life, such as freedom and mobility. Nevertheless, accidentally may steer to the creation of power imbalances and cultural hegemony. However, I believe that these portrayals may lead to potential ways for challenging and unsettling neo-colonialism discourse. By accurately analyzing TikTok content, this study aims to shed light on the “hidden” power dynamics and cultural representations that shape the digital nomad discussion on the platform. Through this analysis, the research intends to show both the protraction of neo-colonialist ideologies and ways for resistance and destruction of the idea within digital spaces.
The theoretical framework for this research draws from critical postcolonial theory, cultural studies, and media studies. These theoretical angles provide a lens through which to look through and analyze the complex bond between digital nomadism and neo-colonial dynamics. Postcolonial theory offers insights into colonialism and imperialism, highlighting the ways in which relations of power and dominance can be still seen in contemporary society. Cultural studies provide tools for understanding how cultural practices and representations reflect and perpetuate power relations. Media studies give us the structure for analyzing the whole chain of production, distribution and posting of media content on the main topic.
The main concepts such as cultural appropriation, Othering, and the commodification of culture will be used as tools for analyzing the TikTok model of digital nomad and its connection to neo-colonialism. For example, in “Decolonizing Methodologies” by Linda Tuhiwai Smith, the concept of decolonising gives a structure to critically analyze the representation of marginalized groups “..the term ‘research’ is inextricably linked to European imperialism and colonialism… When mentioned in many indigenous contexts, it stirs up silence, it conjures up bad memories, it raises a smile that is knowing and distrustful.” This ideas and concepts will be used to understand and challenge the connection of digital nomadism and neo-colonialism.(2012, 1)
Similarly, in “Empire of Signs” by Roland Barthes, the idea of semiotics and the construction of meaning in cultural texts will be used to deconstruct the visual and textual elements seen in TikTok videos, uncovering underlying power dynamics and ideologies. (1983)
This research will acquire a qualitative approach, by analyzing visual content of TikTok featuring digital nomad topics. A data set of TikTok videos will be selected based on relevant hashtags such as #digitalnomad, #travel and #digitalnomadism. These videos will be analyzed for patterns and discourses around digital nomadism. Therefore, to see how power relations are built and discussed within the Digital Nomad community.
Moreover surveys via email may be done with digital nomads that creat content on TikTok. This will be done to get insights into their experience and opinions, enabling us to understand the topic more broadly. Additionally, comment observation of digital nomad communities on TikTok may provide valuable insights into the experiences of individuals working on and producing digital nomad content.
Overall, this research is done to provide a large-scale exploration of how TikTok’s portrayal of digital nomad connects with neo-colonialist dynamics, giving knowledge into the potential for both perpetuation and resistance within digital spaces. Exploring neo-colonial dynamics through TikTok’s model of digital nomadism is important within the context of Digital Hustle, as it sheds light on the mutuality of technology, globalization, and cultural representation. By understanding how digital nomadism is constructed and perceived within digital spaces, we can build strategies and initiatives that promote ethical engagement, non-biased behavior and empowerment within the digital economy.

Exploring the Aesthetics of “Untitled” by Mark Bradford at MOCA “Untitled” by Mark Bradford is a large-scale mixed media artwork that immediately grabs the attention of viewers with its bold colors, intricate textures, and layered composition.
You will visit an art museum and choose one (1) piece of art that grabs your attention and that you’d like to write about.
The artwork can be a painting, photograph, graphic design, or anything within a single frame (NO multiple frame exhibits, no sculpture, no decorative arts, no video/film, no performing arts).
Write a minimum of 400 words about the work connecting at least 3 visual design/aesthetic theories we have discussed in class to the work. BE SPECIFIC about the theories or visual design/aesthetics. For example, DO NOT say “visual cues” without stating which visual cue or DO NOT say “lighting” without saying what kind of lighting. In addition to stating the theory or visual design/aesthetic element (the WHAT) you also must state HOW and/or WHY they relate to the image.
Clearly mark in BOLD
the theories or ideas from the textbook you use. Type your discussion
(or cut-and-paste if you first write it in a word processor) just like
you’ve done for other discussions.
In addition, you must take a “selfie” standing
next to the artwork. If the museum doesn’t allow pictures inside, you
can take a selfie next to the museum name on the exterior. Include the
selfie in the discussion post.
WARNING: No selfie, no points. If you forget, you’ll have to go back to museum.
REMEMBER: Spelling and grammar count; this is academic writing.

Title: “The Evolution of Lincoln’s Stance on Slavery: A Comparison of His 1858 Debates with Douglas and the 1865 Meeting with Black Ministers in Savannah, Georgia”
Prompt A: Debate between Douglas and Lincoln 1858
Prompt B:Union officials met with black ministers in savannah Georgia
Select ONE of the prompts below and respond with at least 400 words (about 2 pages).
It should include at least two quotes from the relevant primary sources.
Prompt A: In his 1858 debates with Stephen Douglass, Abraham Lincoln assured audiences that while he was
opposed to the extension of slavery into the territories, he had “no purpose directly or indirectly to interfere with
the institution of slavery in the States where it [already] exists.” Five years later, Lincoln had issued the
Emancipation Proclamation and had proclaimed at Gettysburg that the Civil War was being fought to bring about
a “new birth of freedom.” Why and how did Lincoln’s position shift in these five years? Your answer need not
be comprehensive. Instead, it should identify two or three major developments that pushed Lincoln towards
freeing the slaves in the Southern states and towards his new sense of the war’s purpose.
Prompt B: In 1865, Union officials met with twenty black ministers in Savannah, Georgia. When
asked how the freedmen might best secure their freedom and independence, the spokesman for the
ministers, Garrison Frazier, said the following:
“The way we can best take care of ourselves is to have land, and turn it and till it by our own labor…
and we can soon maintain ourselves and have something to spare.”
Did most of the freedmen in the South get the land that Frazier said was essential for freedom
and independence? Did sharecropping, the economic arrangement under which many landless
freedmen labored, provide independence and freedom? Were the sharecroppers truly free? In
your answer, make sure to use specific examples from the sharecropping contract to make your
case. -
