week 1 media quiz

 The firts quiz i took i did really bad i only got 3 out of 10 and i really didnt know any of the answers for sure. It was mostly guessing for me. I was really surprised at the first one question. I really didnt think that people from ages 8-18 spent more than 7 hours a day consuming entertainment media that just seems like an awful lot of time in front of a computer or tv screen. Another one that caught me off gaurd was the one saying that a newborn has a better chance of survival in Slovenia than in America. I thought for sure that one would be false but i was wrong. The second quiz was a little easier i thought. I got 9 out of 15 correct, probably because i didnt have to guess on all of them. the first question was regarding the percentage of kids 8-18 who had tv's in thier room and i know so many people who have tv's in thier rooms now that i took the highest percentage which was 68%. I also knew that watching too much tv is directly linked with obestiy because that makes the most sense. People are watching more tv instead of exercising. the key at the bottom of the page told me that my score means i have a decent knowledge of media literacy which im okay with. There is still plenty to learn.
