Group Tasks and Timelines

1. Hopefully, you've all joined a group by now. If not, watch the video Groups in Canvas SoMe Links to an external site. to learn how.

2. Then you should have found your way to your group's Google Doc, either through Collaborations OR by accessing the Doc directly from the Announcement made in your group. You do not have to have a Google account to access the document for your group. If you don't have a Google account, you will just make edits anonymously and no data will be tracked.

3. By now, your group should have established who will be in charge of which roles - everyone else is a researcher.

4. Each group will produce a document with links to articles, videos, and other artifacts that might help someone else learn about social media in this subject area.
