Abstract

We, the Smart & Savvy Students (SSS), provide studying and general life tips to Clemson University students. We have a Twitter feed and a Facebook page to spread the information to the student body. Each tweet contains a 140 character tip written in a dialogue format. The tweets include links to the Facebook page, which has more information. The Facebook page provides links to scientific sources that support our claims. These links provide students with the opportunity to learn more about the topics. SSS posts tips to Twitter and Facebook 3 to 5 times a week. Using popular social media, SSS provides students quick tips about topics including study skills, exercise and diet, recreation, social life, emotional health, and healthy habits. This project is sponsored by the Creative Inquiry Program at Clemson University.
