YouTube is a frequently used social media tool in the classroom (also the second most visited website in the world).[241][not in citation given] can watch videos, answer questions, and discuss content. Additionally, students can create videos to share with others. Sherer and Shea (2011) claimed that YouTube increased participation, personalization (customization), and productivity. YouTube also improved students’ digital skills and provided opportunity for peer learning and problem solving[242] Eick et al. (2012) found that videos kept students’ attention, generated interest in the subject, and clarified course content.[243] Additionally, the students reported that the videos helped them recall information and visualize real world applications of course concepts.

An effective digital marketing strategy combined with the right tools and technologies allows you to trace all of your sales back to a customer’s first digital touchpoint with your business.

The easiest way to understand the difference between social media and social networking is by thinking about the terms “media” and “networking” separately. Media refers to the information you’re actually sharing–whether it’s a link to an article, a video, an animated GIF, a PDF document, a simple status update or anything else.
All the cruel things were possible before digital media when social media was just signs on trees and walls. I believe digital media allows supervising adults to find out about potential threats and current wrongdoings a lot better than when they used to rely on some random shy kids by asking “you can tell me, what’s going on with him/her?”–because that kid would never tell. It is easy to download an app to monitor kids and tell kids what to do and not do. But it is very hard to teach by examples, because that means we have to act as we say at all times without using get-out-of-jail-free card, “this is different” excuses. I personally believe showing kids the examples of self-disciplined and forgiving adults is more important than telling them about what more things they should not do.

The Internet and social networking leaks are one of the issues facing traditional advertising. Video and print ads are often leaked to the world via the Internet earlier than they are scheduled to premiere. Social networking sites allow those leaks to go viral, and be seen by many users more quickly. The time difference is also a problem facing traditional advertisers. When social events occur and are broadcast on television, there is often a time delay between airings on the east coast and west coast of the United States. Social networking sites have become a hub of comment and interaction concerning the event. This allows individuals watching the event on the west coast (time-delayed) to know the outcome before it airs. The 2011 Grammy Awards highlighted this problem. Viewers on the west coast learned who won different awards based on comments made on social networking sites by individuals watching live on the east coast.[99] Since viewers knew who won already, many tuned out and ratings were lower. All the advertisement and promotion put into the event was lost because viewers didn’t have a reason to watch. [according to whom?]
