Before I began my class I had never heard the term “social media” and did not think of using it for PR. I like that I am able to take aspects of my favorite websites (Facebook and blogs) and apply them to PR.

We help the businesses outline the strategy and program, give the student a list of to-do's with the flexibility to pour their own style and personality into it, and we monitor from a distance. You are absolutely correct, the result is a student who graduates with a bigger vision for use of social networking technologies and often, excellent writing skills. And of course, the business benefits in obvious ways.

I think it's important to start collecting social media interns, especially because companies will need more employees in this field. Original post here.

Education does start in the classroom and is also refined by real world experiences, some of which comes from professional internships. Mihaela – thanks for stopping by.

I try to build social media skills in the various classes I teach at Clemson University, and I know colleagues at other universities (UGA, Auburn, etc.) who do a great job teaching social media & PR.
