Right before the graphs are shown in the video, one person in the video says, Quantifying online campaigns is tricky. Why do they care about quantifying online campaigns?
 A. They believe that if they can show policy makers how many people are actively supporting marriage equality by participating in this campaign, they may be able to influence policy makers' decisions.
  B. Policy makers were asking for the ages of people who participate in online campaigns and whether their ages are different than those who participate in traditional campaigns such as marches.
  C. Facebook won't allow people to change their profile picture in support of this campaign unless they know how many people want to change their profile picture.
  D. They are interested in how the symbol changed to, for example, images of bacon or cake, and how many different versions there were.

Question 2

The video shows three different types of graphs/depictions: a scatter diagram, a map of the United States, and a network graph. What did the scatter diagram show? The scatter diagram was the plot showing black dots.
 A. That the people in the United States who were most likely to change their Facebook profile picture were between the ages of 20 and 30.
  B. The distribution of the locations of people in the United States who changed their Facebook profile pictures.
  C. How interconnected are Twitter users when discussing issues such as marriage equality.

Answer to Question 1

A. They believe that if they can show policy makers how many people are actively supporting marriage equality by participating in this campaign, they may be able to influence policy makers' decisions.

FEEDBACK:
There are many different research questions that can be answered by quantifying the online campaigns, such as who participates in them, where do they live, and whether such campaigns could have more impact than the traditional campaigns. However, the video discusses whether understanding the impact of such campaigns will ultimately influence policy makers' decisions.

Answer to Question 2

A. That the people in the United States who were most likely to change their Facebook profile picture were between the ages of 20 and 30.a

FEEDBACK:
The scatter diagram showed the distribution of ages of those who changed their Facebook profile picture. This plot peaked between the ages of 20 and 30, indicating that the people in the United States who were most likely to change their Facebook profile picture were between the ages of 20 and 30 . The map of the United States showed darker areas where there were more people who changed their Facebook profile pictures to the red symbol representing marriage equality. The network graph showed interconnections between Twitter users.
