Working on my digital story has been quite an experience. I scheduled my three interviews throughout all of March and it was insightful getting all of my information from my sources. I found out from my sources about what they believe is good or bad representation of autism in the media. Some of my sources were critical about some of the media representations like the character Sam from “Atypical” on Netflix and the Netflix show “Love on the Spectrum.”
During the month of March, I also learned about how to work with data journalism. It was full of numbers that I haven’t seen in a long time. After learning about specific formulas, my second instinct of mathematics kicked in and everything else clicked. It also helped that there was autofill options available. I had trouble with one, but everything else was a breeze to get through.
