Mobile Myanmar: The Impact of Social Media on Young People Living in Conflict-Affected Regions of Myanmar Great! Finally, we will be using phones from time to time but please refrain from taking calls during the Focus Group unless they are truly urgent. While we’re talking about it, can everyone please now switch their phones on to silent? (wait until all phones have been silenced) Section 1: General usage Activity - Survey [Do introductions and energizers first. We’re going to start today with a short survey. It should take you about 5 minutes to complete. When you’re finished, raise your hand and I’ll come collect your survey.] [Hand out survey] Follow up Discussion: 1. Show youth a collection of visual examples of different social platforms and apps. (i.e. Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Youtube, etc.) 2. Ask the youth to categorize these as: Chat, News, Photos, Music, and Entertainment. (Note: Apps/platforms can appear in multiple categories). 3. Go through each with the youth and ask them for an adjective that describes that particular app/platform. (i.e. fun, interesting, educational, useful, anger-inducing, annoying, etc.) 4. Ask the youth, “What makes an app or platform popular?” Section 2: Online safety Activity - Quiz I want everyone to get their phones out. I’m going to give you a little quiz to see how well you know your apps. I want everyone to open their Facebook. If you don’t have Facebook, raise your hand. (If participants have another social app, have them open this, if not, tell them to pair up with a neighbour.) If participants don’t have phones, use the visual hand-outs. Now, I want everyone to locate the ‘block’ feature, raise your hand when you’ve got it. 1. Did you already know where the block feature was? a. If ‘yes’: how did you learn about it? 2. Do you know what the block feature does? 120
