• Use of social media can enhance communication skills and increase students engagement

    Visual Learning: Platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube are perfect for cooking demos, sewing tutorials, budgeting tips, and DIY projects.
    .Real-Life Relevance: Students see how home economics applies to their everyday lives—whether it's making a healthy meal or managing money.
    Interactive Engagement: Polls, comments, challenges, and Q&A sessions make learning feel like a two-way street.
    🛠️ Practical Ideas
    TikTok Shorts: Quick how-tos like “5-Minute Healthy Snacks” or “Sew a Tote Bag with No Machine.”

    Instagram Reels: Show before-and-after results of organizing a kitchen or revamping an old outfit.

    Pinterest Boards: Pin meal plans, home decor ideas, or sewing patterns students can follow.

    Encourage students to create and share their own content. It builds confidence, reinforces what they’ve learned, and fosters peer learning.

  • Thank you for these useful ideas! I agree that social media can really help improve students’ communication skills and increase their engagement. Using platforms like TikTok and Instagram for short tutorials and real-life examples makes lessons more interesting and practical.

    You're absolutely right
    Social media, when used wisely, can transform learning into a fun and relatable experience. Platforms like TikTok, Instagram, and Pinterest not only make lessons more visual and interactive but also give students a chance to apply skills in real life. Encouraging them to create and share content builds confidence, boosts communication skills, and turns them into active participants in their own learning journey.
