Keith Graham
ProQuest LLC, D.B.A. Dissertation, Trevecca Nazarene University
Social media has become a part of daily life for millions of people around the world. This fact is true for kindergarten through 12th grade (K-12) public school educators. The constant availability of social media applications has directly influenced the levels of engagement of employees in the work environment. This influence is caused by the intensity of social media use by employees at work. This quantitative, survey-based, correlational study measured the correlations between social media use, social media intensity, and employee engagement. Data were collected from 76, K-12 public school educators. The data were analyzed using Pearson's correlation and multiple regression. Pearson's correlation results indicated there was a moderate relationship between social media intensity and engagement among K-12 educators in the classroom. No statistically significant correlation was discovered between social media use and employee engagement. Multiple regression results revealed that social media intensity is a better predictor of engagement. [The dissertation citations contained here are published with the permission of ProQuest LLC.
