While I’m checking “text message,” I’m progressively finding that Twitter is a great way to do this. I started spreading it with student leaders and they’ve spread it to their friends. It leaves out a lot of students, but those joining are key influencers, so things spread quickly.
I checked e mail because it has been the most efficient tool in the past to make sure to reach all students… BUT, I am sensing the shift to text messaging - that is now rivaling e mail as my number one way to stay connected with them. I’m glad that Simply is putting out the SimplyTXT resource - great resource, and thanks for helping us stay ahead of the game!
I replied with email as my choice, but I am using texting more and more. The reason for email being the choice is we need to share a lot of information with our leadership students. Many times I will send them email and a text saying “You’ve Got Mail” to let them know to check their email.
Great question. Certainly something to think about: how do we communicate best with today’s teens. God bless. Grace and Peace.
By the way, when are you going to reveal the winner for the caption contest?
