Smart Thumbs

One of the evidences that we can see as a sign of the rapid development of information and communication technology is the extraordinary acceleration of the spread of information. In the past, we had to wait for news broadcasts on radio, television and newspapers to get information, but nowadays, when something happens, other people in other places can immediately find out.

One of the supporting factors is the existence of social media. That is, a digital device that makes between one user and another user connected to each other at all times. Thus, the process of disseminating information and the communication process can be carried out at any time. This is one of the reasons why information spreads so quickly from one place to another.

The existence of social media certainly has a positive and negative impact at the same time. The impact will be received by the user depending on how the user uses the device. There are times when you will receive a positive impact, and sometimes you will get a negative impact.

Therefore, there needs to be education to educate users to be able to use social media correctly and well. 

What to pay attention to?

Things to note include:

Use kind words

Words are expressions of the heart and mind of the person who wrote them. From words sometimes we can judge how someone's attitude. Therefore, choose good words when posting a line of two words on social media.

Avoid hate speech

Hate speech is words that contain the meaning of humiliation, humiliation and everything that can hurt other people's feelings. This is very unwise if we take it out in social life.

Does not offend SARA

SARA is an abbreviation of Ethnic, Religion, Race and Inter-Group. These four things become very sensitive when raised among social relations activities. Therefore, we should avoid these four things as much as possible in writing or anything on social media.

Using Correct Data

And this is no less important, every time we want to share information, then make sure the information we share has a clear source reinforced with correct data from that information. So that we don't get caught up in sharing untrue information.

Maybe there are many more things that need to be considered so that in media we really get the positive impact, and avoid the negative impact.

Unite the movement by doing the "Filter before Sharing" action, so that whatever we share using our thumbs is really of high quality.

Let's make our thumbs smart, as a picture of the smartness of our minds.
