Dixon, an expert in social media in education, offers detailed descriptions of the best online tools available for school leaders today and provides step-by-step instructions for using them to move a school community from awareness to advocacy and from feedback to collaboration.

Applicable for all educational settings (public and private schools, charter schools, and at the university level), these techniques will help to engage a target audience, communicate the mission and vision of a school, serve as a resource in student and teacher recruitment strategies, and inspire business and community involvement.
