Online Impression Management Essay Paper
Description
Reflection Report
There are definitely some interesting challenges to how we present ourselves online–especially nowadays when mediated communication is our primary mode while we shelter-in-place. In face-to-face interactions, there are lots of communicative cues that people can pay attention to. However, in online interactions, the amount of communication we communicate is more controlled. We tend to selectively self-present in order to manage the impressions of ourselves.
In some ways, online communication gives us flexibility to craft ourselves and put a particular self/face out there.
REFLECT on the following (and then scroll down to see what you will write and SUBMIT)
That is, how would you answer this question:
I want to be seen as _____________________________ (What adjectives would you use here).
(Consider revising or deleting content that doesn’t match your desired face).
WHAT TO SUBMIT:
After you have completed this reflective exercise, submit the following to me for your reflection report (Typed, double-spaced, 12 point font, and 1 inch margins, approximately 1-2 pages).
I want (desire) to be seen as _____________________________ (What adjectives would you use here).
-Does how you want to be seen vs. what you post match? Why/Why not?
-If you have distorted your online presentation, do you think there are any relational consequences (for yourself or others) of creating/maintaining this online mask?
-What would you need to do to in the future to present yourself in a ways that might mesh with your desired presenting self/face (i.e as a means of identity/impression management)?
