How social media influences how we conceptualize childhood today

Report on how social media influences how we conceptualise childhood today and how this impacts the guidance that is provided to children by parents and Education. 1. Identify five child influencers on TikTok. These are children only aged 12 years and younger who have a TikTok account with a following of at least 1 million. The child can have a following of 1 million plus on TikTok or a following of 1 million plus across all social media. If the latter is the case document on your table how their following is spread out across the social media. Make sure to provide details of the 5 TikTok accounts. View the 3 most recent (posts) Tik Toks for each selected account. Create a table for each account that shows the following: a) The overall characterising feature of their TikTok account. b) The focus of each of their 3 most recent Tik Toks, for example is the TikTok educational, consumerist, play, or does it have another purpose. NOTE: Search ‘Kid Influencers’ on Tik Tok or Google to assist you on finding accounts. We only want to know what content is provided in Tik Tok. Account details on the table need to be shown. If the accounts are on the family or parents, it should be the account on the child the content has to be on the child. - Word count from the table is not included in the assignment word count. 3. Considering all five TikTokers that you selected, what is the collective message they are communicating about childhood today? The children may not be talking specifically about childhood but there wil​‌‍‍‍‌‍‍‌‍‌‌‍‍‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​l be subtle messages they communicate about: a) The needs of children today, b) How children today communicate, c) The goals children today should have, d) The role of the internet and social media for children, e) The role of adults and parents for children. Select two of these themes and in 200 words, explain the messages you interpret from them. Use at least one scholarly reference to support your explanation. Talk about the TikTokers collectively however you may give example from particular individual TikTokers. 4. Children’s lives have changed considerably because of their engagement with the internet. Using the ’New Sociology of Childhood’ theory explain the benefits and issues these changes have brought to childhood. Governments around the world are now developing new policies to ensure we support children’s wellbeing in new ways due to their 10 engagement with the internet. Referring to two of these governmental policies, critique the value of these policies for children. The governmental policies may be from any country in the world (1300 words). - Include 6 -10 scholarly, high-quality references for this assignment. Need to be researched and most recent references.
