GNML Reflection

I am almost at the end of GNML online class program. after 5 weeks of online class, I gained a lot of new experience and knowledge about social media and social campaign. Here is some reflection of each social media that I use for my social Campaign

Blogger
Blog is one of the most important social media in my social campaign. In the blog I an share my activity, article, and thoughts through posts. Blog is also the center of my social campaign activity. It because I can embed other social media such as twitter, facebook, linkedIn, etc into my blog, so Everyone can track my activity in other social media through my blog

Twitter
Twitter is also another important social media that I use. Twitter is one of the most rapid growing social media in recent time. with its microblogger format, I can promote my campaign and share my activity precisely to a lot of people.

Youtube
Youtube is the biggest video sharing website in the world. It is a very effective media to convey my message and promote my social campaign through a video on youtube. In this session I also learned how to make an effectively persuasive video within 50 seconds.

Facebook
Facebook is one of the biggest social media in the world. It makes facebook one of the most effective media to promote my movement. In Facebook page we can share pictures, activity, photos, etc.

Instagram
Instagram is a social media where you can share pictures. I have used Instagram before but only for private use. I just realized that Instagram can also become an amazing media for our social campaign after joining GNML session.

LinkedIn
LinkedIn I totally a new social media for me. It's a very good social media to build professional network that will benefit my movement a lot.

Foot care at shelters benefits doctoral students, homeless

In a small, pungent corner room of the St. Francis Center homeless shelter Saturday, a handful of doctoral students filed away at unkempt toenails of people without health care. University of Colorado medical students in the Underserved Interprofessional Health Training and Education program chatted with about 75 homeless people at three shelters throughout the program's fourth annual day of foot care. Eighteen students and six faculty members clipped toenails, provided basic foot toiletries and checked for red flags such as bunions, open wounds, fractures and pre-cancerous spots, all of which their patients could not afford otherwise.

"These students are really mission-driven and motivated," Beezley said. "They've added this on top of med school." Ana Calderon, a second-year student in CU's family nurse practitioner program, said homeless people spend an average of four hours a day standing in lines. Working with the homeless on Saturday reflects her goal to help people without health care. "It's actually a privilege because this isn't part of my nurse practitioner program," Calderon said. "This is separate and supplemental." Calderon said she especially enjoyed hearing from multiple people about job interviews they had planned for the week ahead. "Thirty minutes soaking your feet and talking with someone about yourself is huge," Beezley said. "That just doesn't happen for the homeless." Mike Flynn, who has lived in transience for three years in Denver, was grateful just to walk to the laundromat without toe pain after the doctors-in-waiting diagnosed his ingrown toenail. "They dug it out, and it didn't even hurt that much," Flynn said.
