Social media
1. Stop Worryin and Start Lovin Em!!
Human interaction has not changed. It’s here where it happens that’s changed.
3. #Define Nation of Social Media and Networking
Social Media is the content, tools and services created and used by people online
… such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, blogs, groups, wikis and others.
Social Networking is the act of building interactive online communities of people
with shared interests through communication and sharing of information.
4. #Social Networking
A social networking service (also called SNS) is a platform to build networks or social
relations among people who share interests, activities, backgrounds or real-life
connections.
Social networks are web-based services that allow individuals to create a public profile, to
create a list of users with whom to share connections, and view and cross the connections
within the system. Most social network services are web-based and provide means for
users to interact over the Internet, such as e-mail and instant messaging.
The main types of social networking services are those that contain category places (such
as former school year or classmates), means to connect with friends (usually with self-
description pages), and a recommendation system linked to trust. Popular methods now
combine many of these, with American-based services such as Facebook, Google+,
YouTube, LinkedIn, Instagram, Tumblr, and Twitter.
5. #Why Social Media is important?
If your kids are awake they are probably online
The average young American now spends every
waking minute – except the time in school – using a
smart phone, computer, TV or other electronic device
according to a new study from the Kaiser Family
Foundation. Those ages 8 – 18 spend more than 7
hours a day with such devices. And that does not
count the hour and a half that youths spend texting
or talking on their phones.
6. They do all the same stuff
that normal networks can.
They are fast and inexpensive
They require no travel to
connect with tons of people
They help you stay in contact
and up to date with people
They generate leads and
referrals at a very low cost
They enable easy creation of
groups and communities

18. #Facebook
Facebook has invested billions to create critical mass, and now that it has essentially
penetrated every corner of the globe, it is time to cash in. With its disastrous IPO of last year
firmly in the rear view mirror, Facebook’s ad revenues have exploded, especially on the mobile
side of its business, where it generated more than 40 percent of its total ad dollars during the
second quarter, up from approximately 25 percent the previous year
LinkedIn
LinkedIn is largely a one-trick pony. But gaining mastery over the professional networking and
job search space like no other platform, social media or otherwise, is a pretty good trick.
LinkedIn has a unique business model, deriving revenue from multiple streams, including
mobile and web ad sales, premium user subscriptions and selling its database of millions of
resumes to corporate recruiters – which has become increasingly lucrative over the years.

Hinweis der Redaktion
Used as an educational tool, educators can use these sites for classroom discussions beyond the classroom, uniting students that might not have crossed paths otherwise (Lederer, 2012).
Promotional advertisement for the college itself for students that are still searching for right college, and for current students, it can advertise activities on and off campus.
Students and companies can use their social networking sites for networking. Many companies have their own sites, which is a great source of information to jobseekers (Lederer, 2012).
Just like everything in life, there is a good side and a bad side. There is a lack of privacy when using social networking sites, you never know who is looking at your profile. These sites can also be very distracting. Outside subjects may take away from the learning experience (Lederer, 2012). Shy students may become more antisocial, using the site as a safety net (Lederer, 2012).
The number one disadvantage to all social networking sites is cyberbullying. This problem can be nipped in the bud if the schools themselves provided a report abuse/bullying link on the school website. This action along with the schools implementing a disciplinary action plan for the offenders.
