“…Researchers propose that SNS have the potential to improve learning experiences in a variety of ways, including improving communicative efficiency (Towner & Muñoz, 2011), providing positive social transformations (Gallon, 2010;Levickaitė, 2010), facilitating openness (Roblyer, McDaniel, Webb, Herman, & Witty, 2010), and fostering learner participation, community building, and social presence (Lee & McLoughlin, 2010;Minocha, 2009). Despite such promising possibilities, scant empirical evidence on the applications of SNS in educational contexts exists (Greenhow, 2011;, which prevents researchers from being able to advocate for educational SNS use from a position of empirical certainty.…”

Social Networking Sites (SNS) have been used to support educational and professional endeavors. However, little research has been done to understand the relationship between educator identity and participation in SNS or to examine the implications that institutional regulation of such media may have upon educator identity. Using grounded theory, in this study we developed a framework for understanding how a group of teacher education students viewed their developing identities within social networking sites as they began the life transition to becoming educators. The theory that emerged from this study proposes that educator identity consists of a constellation of interconnected acceptable identity fragments, which are each intentional, authentic, transitional, necessarily incomplete, and socially-constructed andresponsive. This view of educator identity contrasts sharply with previous views of identity by highlighting the complicated, negotiated, and recursive relationship that exists between educator participation in SNS and educator identity. Additionally, this perspective suggests that educator participation in SNS is neither fully representative of authentic identity (as prominent SNS models imply) nor dramaturgical. These findings yield important implications for educators, researchers, educational institutions, lawmakers, and SNS developers alike, because they lead to a more sophisticated understanding of identity and online participation that is essential for developing mechanisms to support moral and legal judgments, professionalism, and social interactions relative to SNS. 1 1 Abbreviations: AIF -acceptable identity fragment; SNS -social networking site Fragmented Educator 3

“…It promotes quicker and easier information dissemination among them. Theoretically, Facebook is a good place to forward information to a broader audience, but the effectiveness and efficiency of the data transfer depends on the quality of the content (Ang 2011;Levickaite 2010;Filip et al 2015). The first key issue to discuss in this study is the value of content shared among the apprenticeships.…”

Facebook is one of the most often used social networks among the younger generation in Germany, which can provide a direct communication channel between businesses and candidates.

Research methods applied: scientific publication analysis, survey (by paper-based questionnaire) of German students of the ninth and tenth grade. Analysis of survey data by main indicators of descriptive statistics: arithmetic mean, mode, median, and standard deviations to get an impression of evaluations on analysed aspects by survey respondents.

“…People born in this period are seen as 'a generation that reconfigured society' because of their significantly larger numbers (Levickaite, 2010). Besides being the parents of Generation X, the most distinctive characteristics of Baby Boomers are that they are abstemious, emotional, and conventional, using technology when necessary.…”

Companies can use different pricing strategies to accelerate demand. Pricing strategies not only provide information to consumers but also profoundly affect their perceptions of products and services. Price ending strategies, for example, use prices that have a psychological impact. This study sought to identify and compare different generations' perceptions of price ending strategies using data collected via a questionnaire based on the relevant literature. The population comprised people over 18 who live in Mersin, Turkey. Quota sampling was applied so that 100 respondents were chosen from each generation (i.e., Baby Boomers and Generations X, Y, and Z) and 200 people from each gender. The questionnaires were conducted face-to-face between April 15 and May 15, 2016. The data were analyzed using analysis of variance and correspondence analysis, as well as descriptive statistics. The results reveal that consumers' perceptions of quality, discount, and image evoked by prices differ significantly by generation. The findings suggest that retail managers need to pay attention to the generational composition of their target market when using pricing strategies.
