Some social media are agents of change.
• increase awareness or elicit public

truth of what is being shared, but people react
to it. We have to make sure that the
information we share are factual and come
from reliable sources.

has its disadvantage: the risk of invasion of
privacy.

pictures of other people on your social media
account, do not forget to ask for the owner's
approval and of the people who appeared in
the video or picture.
3. Think before you click – When posting or
sharing on social media, think first if the
information you are going to post or share is
accurate, helpful, informative, nice, and kind to
others.
