THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

2. WHAT IS TWITTER?
Twitter is a MICRO blogging
tool.
Users post brief messages
(called “Tweets”) for others to
read.
Tweets can be a user‟s own
content, a “retweet” (forward)
of someone else‟s content, a
link, or nearly anything else
can be conveyed as text.
3. WHAT MAKES TWITTER DIFFERENT
FROM FACEBOOK AND EMAIL?
TWITTER FACEBOOK EMAIL

is subject to
change.
Public to Public to only
EVERYONE. Public to friends those you directly
only* correspond with.
Social networking Direct
access to the Social networking correspondence
world! access to the with a finite
world! number of
recipients.
5. WHAT MAKES TWITTER GREAT FOR
COMMUNICATION WITH STUDENTS AND PARENTS?
Easier to post micro updates
compared to full posts or
articles.
Many of your news items that
you‟d normally share on your
class website may be shorter
and well-suited for tweeting.
Twitter can be easily
integrated into daily tasks
and can be accessed on-the-
go.
6. WHAT MAKES TWITTER IDEAL FOR
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT?
Twitter is great for sharing resources, seeking resources, and receiving
resources.
True collaboration means that you and others are motivated to help one another!
Ongoing dialogs – not a one-time PD session without the option of
follow-up.
Twitter exchanges can (must) be brief, so there‟s no pressure to draft a
lengthy message.
Many, many respected organizations have a presence on Twitter.
Tweeting teachers have ongoing access to experts, leaders, and
organizations.
“It‟s professional development at your will, your leisure, and your
interest.” (Mercier, 2011)
