Proposed project title		Is the social network becoming a modern day superpower
Section One: Title, objective, responsibilities

Title or working title of project (in the form of a question) Is the social network becoming a modern day superpower or is it destroying? Project objectives (eg, what is the question you want to answer? What do you want to learn how to do? What do you want to find out?): I want to find out using a lot of research from the internet and newspapers on how the social network (in particular Facebook and tweet) affects us for the best or the worst. I will find research that evenly supports both sides of my argument. If it is a group project, what will your responsibilities be? This doesn’t apply to me. I will be doing everything for my project/essay.
Section Two: Reasons for choosing this project
Reasons for choosing the project (eg, links to other subjects you are studying, personal interest, future plans, knowledge/skills you want to improve, why the topic is important): The main reason I have chosen this topic is because I always see allot of good and bad news on the internet, papers or TV about social network sites. I would find it interesting and fascinating to look into this my project. Summing it up this a fun topic which I am interested to look into meaning I am very unlikely to get bored of the idea of this topic.

Activities to be carried out during the project (eg, research, analysis, writing, preparing for the presentation, etc): introduction research analysis presentation/layout writing it up The rest of the remaining time I could use to fix anything that is wrong with my essay style topic.	How long this will take: 1 week 2-3 weeks 2 weeks 1 week 3 weeks
Milestone one: Target date (set by tutor-assessor): Milestone two: Target date (set by tutor-assessor):
Section Four: Resources
What resources will you need for your research, write up and presentation (eg, libraries, books, journals, equipment): I would need access to the internet to do research which I can do. Newspaper articles and video clips may possibly be needed from a library. If there is a book that relates closely to my topic then I may read it to see what I find. Would need access to a computer in order to store and write up my essay, I have a laptop so I can handle that. What your areas of research will cover? I will need to research both sides of the argument that I am researching for my topic.
