social media use and the post-secondary transition
By Nik Serbic
■ Social media is the single most important tool in mass media, and can support and
even enhance a student’s transition into a well-rounded post-secondary lifestyle.
Transitioning from high school into the post-secondary realm can be an
extremely stressful and anxious experience for the average student
But it does not have to be…

24% of young adults go online
‘constantly’
92% reported they are online
daily
Stats: Modo Labs
90% of young
adults use
social media
SOCIAL MEDIA
IS
EVERYWHERE
- 82% of them use Facebook
- 55% use Instagram
- 32% use Twitter
Stats: Modo Labs
93% of 18-19
year olds use
major social
sites at least
twice per
week
58% stated they
used Facebook
several times
per day
STUDENTS CONNECT EVERYDAY
Stats: Kevin Yurasek
“Facebook has become an important site
for the informal, cultural learning of
‘being’ a student, with online interactions
and experiences allowing roles to be
learned, values understood and identities
shaped.” [DeAndrea et al. 2011]
Image: Designed by Photoroyalty - Freepik.com
Social media has thus become
imperative for an individual
entering a new social setting,
and has been proven to
positively supplement face-to-
face interaction
In a recent study…
Facebook was found to
be one of 3 places that
allowed college
students to find a
sense of belonging…
… and class-wide Facebook
groups allow for organic
growth and interaction
between students!
[Yurasek 2014]
Image: Designed by Freepik
Results showed that…
Social media use correlated
with an increase in friendship
and social capital…
.. and increased feelings
of university and
community belonging.
[Yurasek 2014]
Image: Designed by Freepik
Social media is, “a tool for
communication with
people who aren’t
necessarily my best
friends.”
… and is also seen by
students as the best way to
keep in touch and maintain
relationships with old
friends who have gone
elsewhere
[Yurasek 2014]
Another study discovered…
Social media use enhances a
student’s satisfaction with
their institution…
… and by connecting them
with school programs
highlights and strengthens
the resources made available
by the college or university
[DeAndrea et al. 2011]

Those with higher
education levels use social
media more!
Be smart!
[Pew Research Center 2015]
However…
A small sample of young adults
who used social media more than
2 hours a day reported:
Don’t over do it…
- Psychological distress
- Unmet needs for mental health support
- Suicidal ideation
[Payne 2015]

… and what about multi-tasking?
Image: Designed by Dooder
Image: Designed by Freepik
American Academy of Pediatrics says:
It can be good!
Competent
multitaskers
complete tasks
efficiently
It can be beneficial
to be a competent
multitasker in the
digital age
[Sumathi 2014]
Image: Designed by Freepik
Post-secondary institutions are catching on
They see the power in social media
In a study:
90% of undergraduate admissions officers agreed social media
is worth its’ investment value
86% planned to increase social media investments the very next year
Stats: Travis May
Image: Designed by AlvaroCabrera
Social media continues to grow every day
The more we use it the more it advances
It makes post-secondary campuses feel smaller all around the world
Image: Designed by Freepik
… and continues to encapsulate and simplify aspects of campus life
What about after I graduate?
Image: Designed by Freepik
Image: Designed by Freepik
Internet and media use in your
elder years is correlated with:
- A healthy and motivated lifestyle
- Enhanced quality of life
- Improved social and physical
well-being
keep it up!
[Chodzko-Zajko et al. 2014]
