“Today, both social media and technology have become an indispensable part of our lives. Every individual who is above 13 years old will have their account on any of the popular social media networks such as Facebook, SnapChat, Instagram, Etc. WhatsApp has raised the minimum age to 16 years old “(Willbold, 2021) As the data pointed out in this article, social media has become an indispensable part of People’s Daily life. Social media is not only used for daily communication, but also widely used for work communication, daily study and live broadcasting.
For example, in the typical social software, people use Zoom to conduct online meetings. This software enables people to start working and communicating at any time on the premise that they only have a computer. Instagram, Tiktok and other software that can play short videos are often used by some businesses to promote their products and increase their sales by taking advantage of the popularity of Internet videos. In addition, I think there are more software that can help students learn. Students can use Zoom, SnapChat or Whatsapp to communicate with their professors or study group members anytime and anywhere in real time. They can also use YouTube, Instagram or other websites to find the learning materials they need. Or post videos showing your learning achievements to discuss them with others who are also interested in the content.
But on the other hand, I think some of the social media in helping the students to learn when there are some problem that nots allow to ignore, such as for some families can’t afford to buy a computer or network cost family, these families are students will not be able to and all other online learning style of students can be normal use, for the convenience of online education resources.
