The aim of this seminar is to educate students about the virtues and vices of social media. With increasing research associating problematic social media use with higher levels of narcissism, greater risks of depression, anxiety and lower self-esteem, this is a highly relevant and necessary topic to be explored.
The seminar educates students on surprising research in psychology and data sharing, as well as being highly practical in skilling the students on how to have healthy habits. Utilising multi-media in the classroom, the students will be encouraged to use their own smart phones and will be guided through a series of ways to critically analyse various celebrity influencers usage, as well as their own.
