Social media has become a part of everyone’s life
now-a-days. Youngsters breathe social media. Even kids these days are all aware
about Facebook and other social networking sites. Organizations too are
actively carrying out social media activities and campaigns to promote their
brands. With all the social media buzz around and more play schools and high
schools round the corner, let’s see how social media can help schools to
function better.
Easy
Communication
Social media should be included into the educational
world to improve communication. Our schools hold many events and activities
that can be communicated in a much easier way to the community and different
groups of people. With social media, the school authorities can send necessary
information directly to the students, teachers and parents within few seconds.
Positive
Promotion
Other than keeping everyone up-to-date about events
and providing immediate information, there is another advantage of social
media, i.e promotion of schools on different social media platforms. Schools
can share information, photographs and events on social media and let everyone
know that great things are happening in the schools. For this, there has to be
active participation and willingness from the school principals, teachers and
students.
If we
focus on the above points we can carefully integrate social media into
education. Social media in schools will save time and allow us to focus on
passing on good messages and for promoting a school. It has great benefits to
the community and society if used appropriately.
