GOING GLOBAL


Social media are one of the best ways to interact with people around the world and get to know about global issues.

1. What does GLOBAL mean? What does ISSUES mean? 
In pairs, brainstorm and list GLOBAL ISSUES that may come up and be interesting to you.

2. TWITTER. Create a twitter account. Find and follow  @scholarsbastida  and  @InstitutBastida

3. Once your account is created, find and follow your classmates on Twitter.

4. In pairs, discuss on the following statements about twitter or any other social media. Decide: YES or NO.

a) Firstly, you need to upload a selfie where you can be identified.

b) You need to follow as many people as you can. Everybody is welcome. The most                        followers, the best!

c) You can get information about your favourite hobbies and issues on Twitter by                                following people with your own interests.

d) You need to clearly write your home address on your profile so everybody can identify                  you.

e) You can interact with people by following and mentioning them.

f) Hashtags have no use.

5. Finally, tweet about what you now think BEING A GLOBAL SCHOLAR means. Include a picture from Google Images (select images without rights or reusable) that represents what you say. Like, retweet and comment any of your classmates' tweets (the ones you like best).
