Social media in the classroom.

I think social media in classrooms is a good idea. It is something students can relate to very easily. For example students can start their own blog. By blogging, the students will learn multiple writing skills, which will only be a privilege for them in the classrooms. It will also help them to interact with people from all over the world and share ideas from assignments ect. Students can also create groups with al the people in their class, where important information can be shared and where students can form study groups.
Social media like Facebook and Twitter can be used to improve communication between students and teachers, where questions can be asked and answered. Where tips can be given. As well as important dates and reminders. With technology developing all the time, the learners will later find it 'boring' to study in the plain inviroment learners are no longer use to. Using technology it inhanses the learners ability to see, hear and interpret. That is just a few reasons I think technology must be used in the classroom.
