Book excerpt: Social media has become a main source for news and communication among the millennial generation. Although there are many benefits that result from the use of social media, there are also some consequences when platforms are used inappropriately. The target demographic studied in this paper is college student-athletes. Since these individuals serve as role models and faces of universities, they are under a microscope and have to follow many guidelines that other students do not. The use of social media by student-athletes has caused universities to develop policies pertaining to it. Although social websites are widely used, many young people do not realize the repercussions that can occur from inappropriate uses like posting pictures from team parties. Universities have taken different approaches on how to proactively deal with these issues. Some institutions are banning the use of social media by their student-athletes while others are creating educational training programs. Additionally, monitoring has become a topic of interest for legality purposes. This paper is a content analysis of articles resulting from three databases searching on the subject of college athletes' uses of social media. After conducting background research, search terms were picked to create these searches. The articles were then read and coded for key words. It was found that most colleges and universities are implementing social media guidelines into their policies and training their athletes on the proper uses to avoid problems. This research proves that the growth of social media has become a growing concern in athletic departments across the country. Further research could be done to learn whether social media bans or education programs are more prevalent among higher education institutions.
Book Synopsis Regulating Student-athlete's Inappropriate Social Media Usage by : Peter Han
Download or read book Regulating Student-athlete's Inappropriate Social Media Usage written by Peter Han and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social media platforms, such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, and Snapchat, have become extremely popular; they serve as tools to connect individuals in a public forum. However, collegiate student-athletes use social media to send messages that may reflect poorly on their educational institutions. For example, student-athletes have posted profanity, obscene messages, compromising photographs, and even threatened the President of the United States while using social media. These messages create negative publicity for the college since athletics and student-athletes are a visible aspect of the institution. As such, inappropriate social media use has become a major concern with college athletic departments. Because the NCAA requires member institutions to adequately and consistently monitor social networking activity, colleges have responded to the actions by disciplining student-athletes that use social media negatively to voice their opinions; in some cases, this punishment has been as severe as actually dismissing the student-athlete from his or her team. But, how does this action impact the public relations of the athletic department? Further, does it subject the college to possible legal action?

Book Synopsis Student-athletes on Twitter by : Sara Savatovic-Hathorn
Download or read book Student-athletes on Twitter written by Sara Savatovic-Hathorn and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social networking sites (SNS) have become the primary communication tool of the 21st century. Every age and demographic is using SNS for different purposes (Pew Research Center, 2019). Not only general society got to make use of it, but also corporations took advantage of it and used it as a part of their marketing, branding, and customer relationship strategies (Leonardi et al., 2013). Indeed, sport teams and organizations are also benefiting from it (Pegoraro, 2010). Moreover, individuals who are heavily involved in online conversations are athletes (Sanderson & Kassing, 2011). The term athletes is very broad, therefore, this study was only focused on student-athletes. There are over 170,000 student-athletes competing in Division I (D1) National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), the largest and richest out of all the divisions (NCAA, n.d.). To have a more exclusive sample, instead of focusing on the whole NCAA student-athlete population, this thesis only included the sport of basketball. Basketball is a high-revenue sport that fits both men and women, while the Big 12 Conference is one of the strongest conferences in the NCAAs (Ordway, 2020). The decision on the conference selection was due to the author of this study being a former Big 12 Conference student-athlete. Altogether, this study focused on Big12 Conference basketball student-athletes and aimed to understand how these student-athletes use social networking sites, specifically Twitter. This study used Meltwater, a software platform for media analytics, to determine key metrics, gender disparities and sentiment. Results demonstrate significant differences between males and females, and this thesis went further in describing those findings. Lastly, the findings of this study can be expected to add significant findings to how student-athletes use social media, which can inform future studies and athletic departments on social media use among other athletes.
Download or read book Rhetorical Bodies written by Jack Selzer and published by Univ of Wisconsin Press. This book was released on 1999 with total page 412 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What significance does the physical, material body still have in a world of virtual reality and genetic cloning? How do technology and postmodern rhetoric influence our understanding of the body? And how can our discussion of the body affect the way we handle crises in public policy--the politics of race and ethnicity; issues of "family values" that revolve around sexual and gender identities; the choices revolving around reproduction and genome projects, and the spread of disease? Leading scholars in rhetoric and communication, as well as literary and cultural studies, address some of the most important topics currently being discussed in the human sciences. The essays collected here suggest the wide range of public arenas in which rhetoric is operative--from abortion clinics and the World Wide Web to the media's depiction of illiteracy and the Donner Party. These studies demonstrate how the discourse of AIDS prevention or Demi Moore's "beautiful pregnancy" call to mind the physical nature of being human and the ways in which language and other symbols reflect and create the physical world.
Book Synopsis The Impact of Social Media on the Mental Health of Student-Athletes by : Jessica Brougham
Download or read book The Impact of Social Media on the Mental Health of Student-Athletes written by Jessica Brougham and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to identify the impact of social media on the mental health of student-athletes. A survey was created that included both social media use and a variety of mental health measures. After contacting over 100 Division I, 20 Division II, and 20 Division III institutions, 5 Division I, 2 Division II and 2 Division III schools agreed to participate. This survey was then sent out to the institutions across the 3 NCAA divisions. In total, 94 student-athletes completed the survey in its entirety. The survey included quantitative and qualitative questions. Qualitative findings suggested student-athletes perceive positive impacts of social media use as communication, stress relief, and motivation. Meanwhile, they perceived negative impacts of social media use including vulnerability, procrastination, and loss of sleep. Quantitative data from a multiple regression analysis indicated there were higher levels of depression/anxiety in the Division II and graduate student populations. Additionally, a negative relationship was identified between female student-athletes, self-esteem and Facebook use. The findings of this exploratory research identify that social media does impact student-athlete mental health. Because of this finding, athletic departments should make an effort to educate themselves and student-athletes on the danger.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social media is central to postsecondary education. It is how students engage with the campus community, and campus leaders and practitioners are interested in how an institution can employ social media to impact instruction, student services and institutional effectiveness in an increasingly competitive market. This volume presents the current research and scholarship on social media that provides a view of the higher education landscape in this new digital age and it demonstrates how social media influence behavior and campus culture. Drawing on a critical synthesis and analysis from recent research on this rapidly evolving phenomenon, this monograph examines: some of the assumptions and presumptions around social media, how social media is used and how it shapes the student experience and student development, and best practices for enhancing curricular and co-curricular communities of practice. This is the 5th issue of the 42nd volume of the Jossey-Bass series ASHE Higher Education Report. Each monograph is the definitive analysis of a tough higher education issue, based on thorough research of pertinent literature and institutional experiences. Topics are identified by a national survey. Noted practitioners and scholars are then commissioned to write the reports, with experts providing critical reviews of each manuscript before publication.
Book Synopsis The Impact of Social Media on Intercollegiate Athletics by : Katelyn P. Miller
Download or read book The Impact of Social Media on Intercollegiate Athletics written by Katelyn P. Miller and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 31 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social media is being used amongst intercollegiate athletic departments, student-athletes and the NCAA. This study seeks to understand the impact of social media on intercollegiate athletics. More precisely, this study looks into the specific policies set-forth by the NCAA and individual athletic departments. Existing research has established the importance of social media in intercollegiate athletics but there is still some confusion as to how social media can and should be used. Unfortunately, policies do fail to elaborate on the proper tactics student-athletes should be using when engaging in social media platforms. In order to establish best practices of social media by student-athletes, this study looked into policies that contained social media strategies. Third party consultants in some cases were also used as potential solutions. This study also illustrated examples of how student-athletes and intercollegiate athletic programs have suffered the consequences as a result of their actions on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. There may always be a cause for concern when dealing with social media because of how quickly information is being shared as technological advancements continue to prosper.

Book Synopsis Education on the Digital Terrain by : Jimmy Sanderson
Download or read book Education on the Digital Terrain written by Jimmy Sanderson and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: College athletes are active on a variety of social-media platforms. As a result, most athletic departments require them to participate in social-media education. Although this practice is becoming more prominent, little research has explored how college athletes perceive such training. This case study explored college athletes' social-media use and their perceptions about social-media education. Semi structured interviews of 20 college athletes at a Division I university were conducted. Using social-cognitive theory as a framework, analysis revealed that while participants expressed a desire for social-media education, they indicated that most of the messages they receive about social media tend to be forgettable. Consequently, athletic departments need to take a more reflexive approach to social-media education that incorporates college athletes' feedback to optimize this instruction.
