Normal opinion piece

Social Media affects children's education


Social media is websites and applications that are used in every day life and is used to create and share content all around the world with each other.I think social media id good for children's education because it will give the easier access to thing and they can make new things inline then they can with just a paper and pen.

    Social networking communities are here to stay, social networking has increased the rate and quality of collaboration for students.It helps them communicate ,meeting times,sharing information quickly then they would reading a big book to find it,Which can increase productivity and help them learn how to work in the real world and get them ready for the future.

    Social networking teaches student skills they'll need to survive in the business  world. Being able to create and maintain connections to many people in many industries is an integral part of developing a career or building a business now a days so children have to now how things work young or there bonn be lost when there older cause there they new future.

     By spending so much time working with new technologies, student develop more more familiarity with computers and others electronic devices. With the increased focus on the technology in education and business, this will help student build skills that will aid them throughout their lives and help with future business and schools and a new education for how the students learn.

    The ease with which a student can customize their profile makes them more aware of basic aspects of design and layout that are not often taught in school. Buliding  resumes and personal  websites which are increasingly used as online portfolios benefit greatly from the skill obtained by customizing the layout and designs of social networking profiles so that kids can get ready for the time a head.

      The ease and speed with which users can upload pictures, videos or stories has resulted in a greater amount of sharing of creative works. Being able to get instant feedback from friends and family on their creative outlets helps students refine and develop their creative and can provide much needed confidence or help them decide what career path they may want to pursue and how well they will do social media also helps with scores on test and taking test its easier to take n on the computer then on paper and pen and when you can have them read it to you on auto voice and its very good for middle school students going into hight school to help make there schedules and check the grades and home work excitements as well.

        The other side mite say social media is bad for children the reason why many students rely on the accessibility of information on social media specifically and the web in general to provide answers. That means a reduced focus on learning and retaining information.

        Students who attempt to multi-task checking social media sites while studying shows show reduced academic performance their ability to concebtraye on the task  at hand is significantly reduced by the distraction that are brought about by YouTube, Facebook, or Twitter .

      The more time students spend on social sites the less time they spend socializing in person. Because of the lack of body signals and other nonverbal cues , like tone and inflection , social networking sites are not an adequate replacement for face to face communication. Students who spend a great deal of time on social networking are less able to effectively communicate in person or with other.

      The popularity of social media and the speed at which information is published has created a lax attitude towards proper spelling and grammar. The reduces a students ability to effectively write without relying on a computers spelling check feature to fix there mistakes that they make every time they write something down or if they even do.

        The degree to which private information is available online and the anonymity the internet seems to provide has made students forget the need to filter the information they post.Many colleges and potential employers investigate an applicants social networking profiles before granting acceptance or interviews.Most students don't constantly evaluate the content they're publishing online which can bring about negative consequences months or years down the road.
      

Editorials and personal columns

Three ideas for editorial
*Students being late to FIT/class/school

*Cell phone addition/online acces

*student bulling /making fun other students or teachers






I look up what The Weenknd/Abel is doing on a day to day bases to see what is going on with him.I always check his social media because he's one of my favorite musician  and i think he's really hot.
