The Impact of Social Media on Society


Social media has had a significant impact on society in recent years. It has transformed the way we communicate, connect, and share information. Social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and LinkedIn have become an integral part of our daily lives, and they have given people the ability to communicate and share information with a global audience. One of the most significant impacts of social media is its ability to facilitate communication between people from different cultures and backgrounds. Social media platforms have made it possible for people to connect with others who share similar interests, regardless of where they are located. This has created a more intercultural and interconnected world, where people can learn about other cultures and lifestyles. However, social media has also had negative effects on society. The overuse of social media can lead to addiction, anxiety, depression, and other mental health problems. Social media has also been used to spread fake news and misinformation, which can have serious consequences for individuals and society as a whole. In conclusion, while social media has had both positive and negative impacts on society, it is clear that it has changed the way we communicate and interact with one another. It is important to use social media responsibly and be aware of its potential risks.

Communication involves not only knowing the context and interlocutors but also having knowledge of the linguistic resources available to achieve specific communicative purposes. Linguistic or systemic knowledge refers to the understanding of how language works, including its structure, grammar, vocabulary, and discourse. It involves knowing how to use different types of language in different contexts, such as formal and informal, spoken and written, and different genres, such as narrative, descriptive, and argumentative. Linguistic knowledge also includes an understanding of the relationship between language and meaning, including figurative language, metaphors, and idioms. In short, having linguistic knowledge is an essential aspect of successful communication in any language.

Which of the following is NOT part of linguistic or systemic knowledge?

"Conceptions of English language teaching and learning are diverse and influenced by different theoretical perspectives. Some of the current trends in English language teaching include communicative language teaching, task-based language teaching, and content-based instruction. Communicative language teaching emphasizes the use of language for communication rather than focusing solely on grammar and vocabulary. Task-based language teaching involves engaging students in meaningful tasks that require the use of language, while content-based instruction integrates language learning with subject matter instruction."

In today's competitive business world, effective communication is essential to success. Whether you're giving a presentation to a client, writing a report for your boss, or collaborating with colleagues on a project, your ability to express yourself clearly and professionally can make all the difference. One key aspect of professional communication is using appropriate language for your audience. This means avoiding jargon or technical terms that might be unfamiliar to non-experts, and using a tone that's respectful and courteous. For example, if you're giving a presentation to a group of clients, you might use language that's persuasive and engaging, focusing on the benefits of your product or service. On the other hand, if you're writing a report for your boss, you might use a more formal tone and focus on providing clear and concise information. In any professional setting, it's important to be aware of your audience and tailor your language to their needs and expectations. By doing so, you can build stronger relationships, increase your credibility, and achieve your goals more effectively.

Here are two multicultural picture books about immigration thathave been suggested for elementary school children:
Here I Am
by Patti Kim

     Newly arrived in America from an Asian country, a young boy is overwhelmed by the lights and noise of a busy city. He finds comfort in a red seed he brought from his faraway home country. When he loses the seed, the search for it eventually leads him to new friendship. Without words and in expressive cartoon style, Here I am describes the confusion and sadness of an uprooted child.

Dear Baobab
by Cheryl Foggo

Moving from Tanzania to Canada with his aunt and uncle, little Maiko feels homesick. He remembers the big baobab tree in his home village, and feels a connection to a small spruce tree in his new home. Seven years old just like Maiko, the tree sings to him and shares his secrets. When there is talk of cutting down the tree because it is too close to the house, Maiko tries to save it. After all he knows what it feels like to be planted in the wrong place. Dear Baobab is one of my favourite multicultural picture books about immigration, because of its easy-to-relate-to allegory of an uprooted tree.
