The session began by discussing the activities of phase 1 by the #SocialSurfing team, and it continued to the topic social media, its advantages and disadvantages. It was a very interactive session and students gained knowledge about Facebook and social media in general. Since Facebook was preferred by many students, the CSR team gave a brief introduction about it, and also talked about the privacy options on Facebook. It helped us to know that there are settings in place, in order to protect our personal account from being hacked by a third person.
