Abstract
In the context of the flourishing development of self-media, the phenomenon of college students’ selfempowerment has been highlighted, and their obscuring of others’ consciousness has been observed to manifest in a number of different ways. In the context of information acquisition, the phenomenon of the ‘information cocoon predicament’ has emerged. This is characterised by the narrowing of cognitive perspectives as a result of algorithmic recommendations and independent screening, which lead to the consumption of a large amount of homogenised information. This has the effect of limiting the scope of knowledge to specific fields, disconnecting students from the diverse perspectives of others, and fostering a sense of detachment from the wider world.
