The creation of
social media was mainly as a way of communication, but who would thought of how
useful social network has turn out. Many high school and universities professor
use networks such Facebook, Twitter, blogs, and YouTube to challenges our
thinking and create a free flow of ideas, plus is a great way to learn, not
only teach the students within the course, but also anyone that wish to learn
about the class. This is a powerful tool that allow us communicates and make
our lives a little bit easier, and less stressful. Now we don’t have to go to a
classroom, we can study from our computer, tables, or our smartphones at any
time. Human beings have created an obsession with social media, but we also
have found a technological tool very useful for our daily life. I agree with
Wilson about the future, the social network is young, and still need more
development, but some day we will able to get in touch not only with professors,
but also with financial-aid officers, tutors, and program advisors.
