In this short article, we would be giving you tips on what the internet can do for you. There are a million of them but we’ll be sharing key help nuggets.

Research: Social workers whose work primarily depend on research, statistics, figures, history, patterns or facts can make a best friend out of the internet. The internet is a home for whatever research work you have to make. Just use the right search words and you’ll get the best results.

Polls: For some social work which depend on current reality, opinions or suggestions, making polls online can help out greatly. Using Google Forms is one of the most available, affordable (actually free) and popular ways to conduct polls.
