Syllabus:
Analyze three kinds of agencies by their social media platforms: use the Florida Division of Emergency Management, The City of Orlando Government page, and Orange County Florida Fire Rescue. Follow them on at least three different platforms (say Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok, for examples) then you’ll see what they post in Jan 2024 to March 2024, look at what they share and compare and contrast across platforms. Considering what they post from Jan 2024 to March 2024, analyze their posts for the following:
What kinds of content do they share? (Is it mostly photos, events, policies, etc.) What do you see the most? How does it vary across the platforms?
How often do they share information from other accounts (like retweeting)? And if they do, what kinds of information are they sharing?
How, if at all, does what they share relate to something you’ve read in class? Cite the course readings by Graber 2002.
How do the agencies differ in what they share? Is any of the content similar? Do you see any differences between the level of government and purpose? (Does the local agency differ from the state-level agency?)
What did you like most about the accounts? The least?
If you were the social media manager, what would you change about the feeds and why?
Your final analysis paper should be between 5-7 pages, double-spaced, and references.
