Week 1 : Introduction

-
In 2018 Winter quarter, I am taking 'Social Media Marketing' because it is an online course. I had trouble adding my classes as it all conflicted each other and found that online course could solve this problem for me. Also, my first major is English Literature and Language and my dual major is Business Administration and thought that this course could help me know more about marketing using social media.

By taking this course, I hope to learn about the benefits of using social media in marketing strategies and how to apply them in real business situations. We all know that social media, such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and etc, is an important tool in information era today and a lot of people are now using them around the whole world.

I am concurrently taking 'Marketing Research' in University of California, Riverside main campus this quarter, and think it is a great opportunity to use the methods I learn in this online course to apply to other lectures. Besides, the field that I am mostly interested in Business Administration is the 'maketing' area. I eagerly look forward to apply what I learn in this course to my future career as a marketer in international businesses.

 The picture above is a beautiful tree of cherry blossoms which I took a year ago in Korea. Enjoy your spring everyone!    Now that the class has ended, I am uploading this final post to wrap it up. However, this might not be the last post if I keep working on it. Over 10 weeks of assignments, some of them were very easy but some of them needed more time to complete. It was a great opportunity to experience and actually use different types of social media, such as Twitter and LinkedIn. Those two media were very strange and unfamiliar at first, but now those feelings are gone. Also, I liked how people commented on each of my works and how we shared our thoughts on our class blog. Lastly, the greatest take-away of the course I think is that now I have my own personal blog. It was my first time to constantly keep up my blog with the topics that I am interested in. When I look back what I have done...

The second online group I joined is also in Facebook and the name of the group is called "California Photography." In the 'About' section, their description is "Welcome to California Photography to share photographs and memories of our Golden State." There are 6,748 members in this group and I am one of them, including 6 admins and moderators. In this community, members upload their photos that are taken in California. All of the pictures are really fascinating and make me want to grab my camera and visit that places someday! I really think the 'Recommendations' section is useful because the members in the group actually recommends that places by posting a photograph that one has taken of oneself.
