Disney Media

1. Hi everyone! This is Shaline, Vicky, and Yahaina. You guys are probably reading this message either before starting or after finishing your research paper like I did because you guys want to know what is this research about or what is blog that at the end you must post your wonderful work “research” on the blog before turn in your paper. However, you made it. Yeah! Congratulation for your hard work. You are DONE! Finally, you can release all the stress that come along for time. But what we want to do now is give you guys some trips that we (Shaline, Vicky, and Yahaina) have done before and it is a helpful trip to help you guys is: is work in group like us, 1. Need to corporate, 2. Discuss about each other opinion on the topic, 3. Don’t need to have the draft early but think about the topic early... We plan ahead “the idea” what you going to write about or to search so you don’t to stress out when it comes to have other class homework done at the same time. Throughout our experience, we had a hard time to meet up since we all have different schedule. But in the , we are VERY satisfied with what we have (15 page written research paper).
2. The research question that we came to mind and found information on was: why Disney Media and Their Stereotypical Expectations on Beauty?
3. Here are some helpful source for those who are thinking or interesting in doing this topic:
