Abstract
The purpose of this assignment is for students to analyze the differences among Puerto Rico’s main political parties, and how they represent themselves on social media. Students work in small groups to conduct content analysis of the Facebook posts of Puerto Rico’s main five political parties. After reviewing a brief description and history of each political party, students access their Facebook accounts and review the last twenty-five posts that each party made. Then, using a guide included in this assignment, they analyze the content of those posts to determine: the main topics addressed through social media; the sentiment attached to these themes; and reactions from the public.
