What Students Say About Social Media in Their Education

"Social media is a powerful way to connect with your students and an audit should be done at the start of every class to find the best platforms to communicate with your students. It will end up saving a lot of time creating emails and discussion boards (which I despise because they are hard to follow and not intuitive). Social media will hasten the communication process and you can easilly communicate within groups of students or just one privately. It is also a way for everyone, including the professor, to stay up to date on subjects."
