In order to better meet the development needs of the education industry in the era of mobile Internet, more educators need to make use of the educational form of Instagram, regularly distribute useful learning resources and learning videos on it, and spread more positive energy for students.

For the fast-developing society, the emergence of vulnerable groups is inevitable. Because of the lack of economic conditions and social status, this group is in a marginal position in society. Through social media, we can adopt multiple ways of cultural empowerment, public opinion empowerment and technical empowerment to help vulnerable groups establish communication and exchange in social media, reasonably express group interests, and return to the dominant position in public opinion. Under the tide of digitalization, young people are riding the wind and waves, while vulnerable groups are hobbling along. A civilized society should not only have the strength of technology, but also the temperature of humanity. When the progress of science and technology is slowly eliminating the vulnerable groups, the public should wait for them, help the vulnerable groups with the help of new media such as social media, narrow the distance between them and the mainstream groups, and promote the sound development of society.
