I have learned a lot after this course, especially on how to expand my PLN and make more connections on social media. In this course, I learned some experience from the professional’s interviewer and from my classmates. As before, I only use social media to communicate with my friends and didn’t make a lot of connections. We use online community chat and WordPress to make connections with our classmates.
My perspective of social media has changed after this course because I noticed that social media can give me many job opportunities and updated information. I think my PLN has changed to more professional use rather than just personal use. I think social media more likely to be communicating with friends. such as Facebook, Instagram and so on. However, after learning this course, I can see that social media has many other uses. Especially, it will help with our studies and future career plan. With this special situation right now, I could see the importance of social media for professional use. I will start to build more connections to expand my PLN to help with my future career plan. I will start to follow more experts on Twitter as they can share their professional experiences.
Hello!
I loved reading your blog post this week and learning about all the new knowledge that you have acquired from this course. I agree with your point of how there can be personal and professional uses of social media. I have also gained the knowledge of that there can be two personas that a single individual can portray on a social media platform or rather two uses. A user can have a personal and professional account and I have applied that same theory to my life.
Hello
Thanks for agree with my idea that how social media can be personal and professional use. It is very helpful to have the two account on social media. One is for personal use and the other one is for professional use. Nowadays, it is so easy to switch the account on the apps. As we can use the personal account to share our daily life and use the professional account to expand business or help with the work area.
