Social Media in Education

      Today the  people of the world lives in a generation of continual digital revolution. They use information and communication technologies(ICTs)and the internet virtually everyday. Technology plays a important role in people's lives especially today's college students like facebook,twitter, google etc. Technology has become routine among students permeating many aspects of their lives, including learning. 
      In the present generation, social media have grown quickly for academic use and changes the education arena. Among social media, facebook and instagram has become the most popular social networking site among youths like us. In our daily basis we are giving so much of our precious time in texting rather than learning. Education required reliable source from which we can develop our learning capacity and improve our strength to overcome problems. It helps in developing communication skills from which we can gain social confidence from online interaction which may help us to feel more secure in new and strange situations. Social media helps us to build skills in technology from which we can become more familiar with new and emerging technologies as well as increase our media literacy through exposure to many different types of online media. We can develop an optimistic image of ourselves by putting our best qualities in the huge world. It can also increase our talent to work on group projects. Social media enhances collaboration in which information can be accomplished by students alone. But problem solving skills are often better enhanced in a collaboration environment. Social media allows students to work together on projects beyond an individual capability.
    We had experienced that social media and education don't necessarily go hand in hand. We must create an exciting environment to overcome our difficulties in using social media. we must use it to make our day to day activities easier and we must use it carefully without proper guidance. we should not damage our learning skills by visiting illegal website. So as a result, we can gain enormous knowledge from social media if we use it wisely and carefully.

Post class Reflection week 5

 august 5,2020       Again the day to learn something fun and interactive class was held on august 5,2020 and its our ENGT class conducted by our respected teacher EAK duwadi sir. The class begin with the quiz playing and as we know it was fun . First of all the internet was bad so I could not get chance to play but on another round I played and it was amazing. As   a part of our creative learning, Eak sir taught us to write a Diamante poem, which I found pretty interesting. It is a type of poem, in which a word is chosen and words describing it is also written in the successive lines. And then the words describing its antonym is written. And in this way, the entire meaning becomes opposite from the initially preceding word . Then some of my friends presented on “Memo Writing”. Memo was derived from memorandum which meant a message written for business or diplomacy. The memos are generally written to convey message to the staff or workers of any business company...

Post Class Reflection week 8

  Today, on 2 nd  September, 2020, we attended one more English Class. I took today’s class with  same joy and excitement like the previous classes. There were 2 very interesting presentations which were lined up today to be presented. We all were desperate to listen to those  presentation and so were presenters.   So the first presentation was about the short story "Mr. know all"   written by  William Somerset  Maugham. This was a very interesting story that was presented in an even more fascinating technique. This story deals with the theme of “ Never judge a book by its cover” , with the mentality of people who still carry thoughts of racism.  The writer may be trying to show humanity and nature of women. Outer cover can never represent the inner reality . And the next presentation was about the investigative report prepared by Ayush Paudel.  An investigative report was generally made to make things clear about any incident. These typ...
