Sometimes in the first week of July, another hectic schedules await. Lessons and programs for the students, activities in school, school updates and my UPOU subjects need my attention. The third DF, understanding social marketing is quite a hard topic yet it is very interesting for me to learn just as i am interested in community service. It's not easy to serve and to the fact that it is not also easy to plan for social marketing. Social marketing impacts lives of the people and it involves 50 social issues ranging from health-related behaviors to financial behaviors.
As an ICT Coordinator in our school, it is essential for me to educate the students as well as the faculties and staffs of the school about computer literacy. Computers are limited in school and there's no other computer teacher except myself. I've been planning of how to achieve my goal. Community involvement behavior is one of the 5 categories in major issues that social marketing can impact and it includes literacy. For me, computer literacy is a very good program to implement in the school community. If students and teachers are all computer-literate and there are enough computers in school, then it may improve their behavior or neglect the undesirable behavior during leisure hours as they may shift their attention to online business, slideshow creation, computer games, social networking and other computer activities that could improve their desirable behaviors.
However, there are so many things to consider in the planning stages. It involves people, money, time and effort. As I've read the "Social Marketing for Public Health," 4Ps - product, price, place and promotion has a vital role in achieving the goal for resolving social issues. Not 1P but should include the 3Ps.
