@chekdn, thanks for your opinion, I agree with you but I had to generalized because majority of the students are affected only few are making good use of the social media.

Most students who needs money to sustain themselves while in school don't waste or concentrate more on social media but they plan the time they spend online to hit their target

yes I agree. Especially now that there can even work by means of phone, it is much easier.

I'm actually a college student and yes, I do spend a lot of time on social media, especially on instagram since I have a good amount of followers. But I'm also a pre-med student and my grades are actually great. I'm on here trying to make extra cash, I'm also looking forward to selling clothes soon on depop. It's just a matter of priorities and I've learned how to manage my time since most of it is actually spent in front of books.

It is good that you have found a way to balance this. I think the problem normally arises when one is unable to set priorities like you have understood.

Social media definitely plays a huge role of distraction of students in schools & colleges. I've seen this infront of my own eyes. People who used to top in their results and used to get many awards have stopped topping or getting any awards due to the excessive use of social media. It's alarming, really!

I couldn't agree more students nowadays are so crazy about social media platforms. Millenials are very active using their smartphones to access their social accounts. They're more busy interacting with their friends in online rather studying at school and at home. We can't blame them because it's a trend now and technology is evolving every year.

Everything has a bad side and a good side. It is your problem if you do not see its good side and get involved with bad side. Social media can be a great help to student.

[ahmedo24]

They need enough money to sustain themselves so they can concentrate in school.

Yea ,i know that but if they have target of making the little they need for sustainance and face their study is better than taking it as full time job

LIke I said earlier, everything has a good and bad side, I see a positive side of social media. The students can interact with the peers, they can even start to learn internet marketing early on.

True. Many students are so much addicted to social media nowadays. Parents should be vigilant in taking care of their children. We cannot trust the young generation anymore. We should check who their friends are and what they've been doing.

Maximum social media users are students in my country.The students are spent lots of time on the social media network.The student does not earn from here.But the student visits social media networks every day.It is good or bad affects our generations.It is very annoying matter at the moment.Technology is very disgusting often.I do not want to tell the technology is bad.We can not properly use it.That is our wrong.

Social media can either be a friend or a foe. It has its advantages and disadvantages. My take on this is that students must lessen interaction in social media and have an actual interaction, which can lead to higher commitments and more participation in school academics. It is not good that students be focused on social media.

Social media is a virtual tool for everyone and anyone. The outcome is what you make of it. It isn't a general thing even though it appears to be so relatively. Everything including exposure works in moderation.

[sprit2017]

I agree with you. They don't have time to learn because they are busy with dating. They don't commit enough. They spend too much time online, wasting their time. I think they have enough time for dating and online earnings later in life.

[Kei]

I don't think that is is relative for all of them. While I was in college, I did a lot of socializing on the media but it didn't in any way affect my grades. I think social media is a tool that wields to however you use it.
