Learning Needs
This class is self paced. Homework is optional and can be submitted in whatever format works best for your learner. Feel free to share with me if your student has any learning needs I can provide extra support for.
Parental Guidance
In this course, we will discuss social media platforms as potential tools for marketing products and services. Heavy emphasis is on the learner inviting responsible adults into those spaces to assist and monitor, therefore, adults should anticipate being involved in their learner's exploration of social media marketing, if the learner decides to pursue it.
Supply List
There is no official learner supply list; assignments can be completed by hand, Word, notes, etc and submitted as a JPEG or PDF, or typed out answers.
