PPQ and outline for report writing


PPQ
Problem: Should NUS faculty and students be allowed to befriend each other on Facebook?

Purpose: To analyse the possible effects and consequences of allowing them to befriend each other on Facebook in order to express views and comment on the feasibility of the idea.

Questions:
  •  How does it help to improve the faculty-and-student-relationship? What are the things which Facebook can achieve whereby the current communication channels failed to do so?
  •  How will the students benefit from it?
  • What are the possible consequences?
  • Do the students see it as a channel of communication or additional burden for them to participate? How about the teachers?
  • Do the students prefer the use of Facebook? What about students who do not use Facebook?
  • What are the sensitive issues about Facebook that should be taken into consideration?
