evaluating my research tools

I have recently been evaluating my research tools in preparation for my final write up. i realised that the majority of my literature had come from online resources such as articles and ebooks and i have used social media and email to conduct interviews and talk to other practitioners. Social media and the growth and expansion of the internet is a fantastic tool but can also be a danger. In relation to my question regarding safeguarding, there is nothing to protect children from the internet, its so easily accessible, making it a fantastic and easy resource tool for myself but a danger to those using it incorrectly.

A main concern of mine when first researching my inquiry was considering safe dance practice; that without the use of physical correction certain dance steps could not be taught safely; safe dance practice must be observed to avoid injury. Due to the rise of social media, images and videos of dance steps are easily viewed on a daily basis by platforms such as facebook, youtube and twitter. Those watching these videos, which are often of advanced and difficult steps being executed by professionals, are trying to recreate these images and as a result hurting themselves.
