This semester I have been working on developing a proposal for my senior International Studies capstone project. I will be investigating and comparing the significance of Twitter followers in Argentina and Brazil by looking at newspaper articles, talking with university students in focus groups, and accessing live tweets through a computer program. I just completed the introduction class to this project where I needed to write a research proposal. I only focused on Argentina in this proposal because much of the literature I wanted to read in Portuguese was too hard for me to read at this point. Below is a word cloud of my proposal, which visually shows the topics I'll be focusing on in my research.
