Health Create Discovery - Social Media

This term in Health, we had the opportunity to research about a health subject that interests us. For Ms Aitken's health class I decided to work on Social Media. 

What is Social Media?

  • Social Media refers to interaction among people in which they create, share, and/or exchange information and ideas in virtual communities and networks.
  • "Social" refers to instinctual needs humans have to connect with other humans
  • "Media" - what we use to make connections with other humans
  • "Social Media" - Media uses for social interaction
Popular Social Media Tools and Websites

  • Whatsapps
  • Twitter      

  • TikTok
  • Facebook
  • Instagram
  • Snapchat
  • Messenger
  • Youtube 


According to a poll:

- 22% of teenagers long on to their favourite social media site more than 10 times a day.

More than half of adolescents long on to a social media site more than once a day

Sevety-five percent of teenagers now own cell phones. 

In health we had to create a learning outcome of our research, I decided to create a documentary, I thought that creating a documentary would be a good idea because I get to involve other students and get their opinions on social media.
