Discussion: Getting the Word Out
\nDiscussion: Getting the Word Out
\nSocial media can be a powerful tool to help you get the word out to a wide audience in a relatively short amount of time.<\/p>\n
Imagine that you are organizing a fundraiser for a local charity. Explore the various social media outlets discussed in this module or that you are aware of from your
\nown personal and professional use (examples include Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, Instagram, etc.).
\nCompose two announcements advertising the event to be posted on two different social media sites. The first should be geared toward your friends, family, and other
\nsocial acquaintances. The second should be written for co-workers or professional colleagues or acquaintances.
\nWhat types of media would you include in your announcements? Written, photographic, video, or audio? Would the same media be appropriate for both announcements? Where
\ncould you get this media? Is it OK to copy whatever clip-art you find on the web? Why or why not? Is it OK to use part of your favorite song? Why or why not?
\nDiscuss which social network site would be most appropriate for each example and explain why. Be sure to include a brief reflection on the differences in tone, style,
\nand content of the two postings in terms of their intended audiences.
\nYour initial response should be at least 150 words.<\/p>\n
Use properly documented sources outside of this course to justify, support, and expand on your response. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
