Introduction
Julia Day, a Sr. Lecturer in the UNE Law School, teaches about Law in relation to civil and medical matters. She also studies the influence of social media on student engagement.
In this lesson, Julia speaks about Law in relation to social media. Social media is relatively new and thus laws pertaining to social media and its impact are the subject of new legislation as well as being tested in the courts.
Julia encourages you to consider the impact of your social media interactions BEFORE you post. She highlights a defamation case where a School Principal sued parents for comments made on a Facebook page.
