On My Mind: Social Media

3/20/2019

Alluded to in our last post of the "On My Mind" student-written series, this fourth installment was also written by Senior Alix as part of her in-house marketing ​internship through the High School Bridges class. Check back regularly for new posts!

Social Media is a great way to express yourself and connect with people from far away. However, use caution whenever you use Social Media since you could also be in contact with some strangers. Here are a few Social Media Dos and Don’ts:
  • Keep in mind that if you post something on social media, it stays on there for a lifetime.
  • You should learn how to use the privacy settings for when you want to post something private.
  • Realize that social media isn’t your own personal diary.
  • Keep in mind that some people would prefer not to have their photos online. If you want to post a photo of someone else on Social Media, you should get their permission first, and even if they do consent, I would recommend that you post the photo privately.

The Bridges class has worked on making a LinkedIn profile. Students have learned in-depth how this outlet works, and how to use it, since it works differently from most Social Media outlets. LinkedIn is a more professional type of social media that one can use when they’re trying to get a job. Because of this, you should behave more seriously on it – don’t post any silly photos of yourself or include your personal life on it. There are plenty of other Social Media outlets to do that kind of stuff!
