Chong Alvin's curator insight, December 2, 2015 9:30 AM

Why is this resource useful for your presentation?


This resource is useful as it sheds light onto the inner workings of our feelings towards projecting ourselves into a virtual world. And the sudden realization and enlightenment that you should love yourself for who you are. 


How can you include it without plagiarizing or violating copyright law?


I will include attribution which cites the source clearly. I will paraphrase everything that is not my creation.
