The Effective Use of LinkedIn to Influence Student Employability & Career Readiness
Employing a social media curriculum in schools provides today’s students with a differentiator. Shaping social media communication skill sets and digital citizenship is a “must do” priority.
Social media education in the classroom achieves three core outcomes, namely:
1. Improved student college and career readiness,
2. Increased student employability (jobs/internships) outcomes, and
3. Professional development for teachers, staff and administrators.
