As you gathered sources, you were expected to find multiple perspectives on your topic. What differences did you notice between your sources? Explain how these differences helped you better understand the complexity of your issue.

 Prompt Response: There were many differences between my sources that I collected. For some of my sources the authors were professors while others were reporters that collected data. My sources also slightly focused on different perspectives of the issue. One focused on the psychological effects of the infleunces while another focused on the misinformation from the influences of wanting to get plastic surgery. These differences helped me better understand that the issues attached to plastic surgery and social media is more than issues pertaining to self-esteem as well as emotional issues. Many cases involving plastic surgery, the patient it misinformed leading to casualties or dissatifaction. 

Summary: During the class period we reviewed the sources that we collected as individuals and added them to our folders. We were expected to find multiple types of sources through Galileo. The sources had to have citations that go along with them. We had to make sure that they each were uploaded and not from the web except for the political  cartoon. 

Reflection: It was interesting reading each source. Many were different in the ways they explained the key points of the articles or data. The souces helped me better understand how big of an issue plastic surgery is when it is for cosmetic purposes on a psychological level. It also made me realize that in some news reports people may not take the issue as seriously.
