  Social Media is the only result?




Social Media is the number one source to find news. As of for today’s facts Facebook is the number one place people go to meet new friends etc. Facebook is made to connect with family and friends but in this world people use social media for embarrassment of the black culture for example the black culture is more likely to post on twitter and Facebook more than other cultures  or race. Social media has been a part of my life since junior high school I believe that was the first time I had ever had  social media.  Do you remember Myspace, yes I said Myspace it was the first social media page I ever had and then that's when Facebook came.

 I believe that in this world at this point the only thing you need to live is social media or just media and of course food "lol" period  because all the social media shows for example “Love & Hip-Hop” TI & Tiny” and basketball Wives” oh and let’s not forget the real house wives of Atlanta
. Social media has control our young generations to that they don’t even want to get an education or learn. Media is dumbing down our children to the point that they want even sit in the classrooms.

I have a question do you think technology use to connect in the classroom well somewhat yes it started in the 2000s but when I was like in
 elementary school we didn’t have social media or reality shows. The only things as a child we could watch was cartoons my parents didn’t play about watching grown folks shows yeah grown folks show let’s call it how it is. Media is distraction reason of saying that is because some students, even when on their best behavior, can't concentrate on homework for more than two minutes without distracting themselves by using social media or writing an email.


Many people overestimate their ability to multitask, such as college students who thinks he/she can text and listen to a lecture simultaneously. Research states that Multitasking while doing academic work which is very, very common among young people it leads to spottier, shallower and less flexible learning,"


That’s like when we in class got our phones out testing while the professor talking or giving a lecture that’s disrespectful for one and that’s not cool because education should come first before a message from Twitter, Facebook or Snapchat. The main focus should be the one that giving the grade. That’s when I go back to social media is dumbing down our students and younger generation. Let’s put this to a stop!
