Social Media in class

Can you imagine using social media in school class? Τhis idea has been suggested by some teachers in our school who, more specifially, support using a popular social media platform for class activities in some lessons. Half of the students and half of the teachers agree with it, while the other half of them do not.

Social media such as Instangram, Facebook and Twitter that are the most popular platforms with billions of users, have a lot of uses such as sending messages (from Facebook with Messenger), uploading photos, images, articles and texts and others.

Also, you can find information about a lot of things and that is the reason why half of the student and teachers support this idea. But the other half dissagree with it because students will maybe not pay attention to their lesson looking at other things on social media; Or, they will copy the answer to their exercises from the internet.

For these reasons I suggest that social media and Google should not always be used but only in some cases that they will be able to help students; however they can be permited during breaks. Also some educational sites and games can often be used in class.

Overall, Social media is a part of our lives and they can be used in school but in a correct way.
