    This article is tailored toward instructors and admin. of higher education organizations. I liked this article especially about using social media as a recruitment tool for higher education, an idea I have been toying with. I have already used social media by having students follow a Sonography Facebook page and a Sonography website with blogs. There are many resources on using social media, this is the first recruitment idea that I've seen.

    I like how this article ties social media to communications and marketing. Although the purpose of using social media mediums can vary, all of the input from a particular user or organization equates to a summary state of the user's character and subsequently a marketing statement. This gives cause for further study about individual due diligence in making choices about how, why and what we put into social media.

    I've always thought that social media in education can promote a positive experience for students.

    Thanks for sharing. I like the example of how the Italian teacher used Twitter to promote confidence in her students. Very cool! I think that social media is a great tool for both teachers and students, and I have been trying to use social media more in my own classroom. The tough part for me is that my students are in 6th grade, and I'm not sure that they are old enough to be using social media. Most of them have Instagram, but not Twitter or Facebook. I use Twitter and Facebook to reach out to parents who want to keep up with what's going on in my class, but my students want me to create an Instagram account! I'm trying to figure out how to make 2 Instagram accounts (one for professional use, one for personal use). I don't think I am able to do this, so I haven't reached out to my students via social media yet. Our form of "social media" has been Google Classroom.

    Interesting article. I totally agree with the importance of "branding." I know our school newspaper is working right now on rebranding itself to get more recognition, and social media is a big part of that. We try to have a strong presence on our yearbook's Twitter account so that we can build followers and get more kids involved. I also think that we as educators have great things going on in our classrooms and schools daily, and that a school that embraces social media has a leg up on being able to show themselves off! Our principal always says that kids and families "vote with their feet," meaning "Are they coming to our school or going to another school in town?" When we can show off the good things about our school on social media, I think that gives us an edge. :) Thanks!
