[Year 12 IT Apps] Another Economist article

[Christophersen, Paula P]

Dear colleagues

 

In the 30 January edition of The Economist there was a special report
titled 'A world of connections', which focuses on social networking. It
is an excellent article and has direct relevance to Unit 1 and Unit 3,
ITA in the reaccredited study design (implemented in 2011). Key topics
in this area include: why social networks have grown so fast; twitter;
profiting from social networks; the use of networking in the office,
privacy and benefits of social networking.

 

The article can be purchased from The Economist website for US$4.95

password on your credit card when making the purchase.

 

Regards
