am nt saying dat the teacher shld be fwends with all his students on social media, bt he shld jst be able to have another way of communicating with the class rep peradventure, if he doesn't have the class rep number...
and i want to ask u, if u are a teacher and ur classrep want 2 be fwends wit u, wat wld u do, wld u do decline d fwend request when u knw dat u didn't have any other means to communicate to him apart from the social media......and do u knw dat some of d lecturers do have t only the class rep as his fwend cos he knws dat he's very strict in class to the students and he wldnt be able to convey any info to his student, apart 4rm the social media....welldone akokites, kudos to u o.

This is not as complicated as it seems, you need to undestand that no one is saying its bad. But what if the teacher uses it for communication outside educational circles and considering it could also be WIDELY used for other negative stuff, how do you reconcile that? The school can do without social networks just fine and the ills of social networks will only be draw-back on the standard of education...that's my argument basically.

Thanks for the compliments...I did my best sha....I don tire lol

easy boss, why is that we NIGERIANS like to look at the disadvantage of things and not the advantage....i know that there's nothing that don't have its advantage or disadvantage...but why don't you look into the advantages, what about those lecturers that do set online test, projects etc.... the main thing is that students interaction with teachers isn't bad but it is just that we Nigerians like to misuse or abuse things....BEST OF LUCK TO YOU.

Lol but what if those disadvantages are actually important and can't be neglected? That's the essence of this debate. And your closing phrase simply highlights what I've been saying all along.

i think we are mixing things here. facebook, twiter and the likes are a typical "informal social platform" which is not very good for teacher-student interaction but there are some good formal-social websites like the AAUA guy listed in his statemnt

Snoopy, Welldone but I don't really see a slingshot victory for your team today.

@ your Bolded it is a debate and unilag were meant to state d Disadvantages!! Not dat dey dnt know of or like d advantages!! But normally the advantages re Good..

Congrats To UNILAG!!
Good Battle I must say.. Lemme share some feelings with y'all contestants..

Snoopy,
Your command of English and the arrangement of your work was second to none. The introduction and arrangement of arguments were spectacular. Your amazing point totally had me..at least until I read the argument of the opposing side.. Welldone.

Damoskiy..
I expected to see definitions for 'debate' and 'supporting' as well. I think you could do with less definitions though. And your points were self-contradictory. However, you did good enough. Only you need to work as a team.

Ayomitide77
Frankly, your presentation was really bad. The work looks so shabby like an overnight job. However, there's no denying the quality of information housed in your work. That's why the poor presentation showed a lot. I think your argument convinced me much more than any other. Just two tips: Take your time in preparing and drive your points home.

Gbemmie09
You listed your points before explaining, like a text book instead of an essay. That sucks. But that 'John De Werey' quote of yours at the end about new ways of teaching was absolutely brilliant. Don't think I'll ever forget it.. Your team's argument is quite impressive and really worth looking into.

Hmmmm... Che you guys know wat u are doin sha. Unilag winner i hear o

♥Dεs•Chγκσ♥:
Hmmm.. Nice battle.. Snoopy, where went you last time when Epaul and his cohort brushed your 'Unilag' aside?? Well..Nice attempt by UI to bring back your side on track..although, I still don't really see a slingshot victory for your team today.

I don't understand sir, there wasn't a time we contested against Epauls delsu

Thank you sir, your words are highly appreciated

Thanks to everyone that wished us well and everyone that dropped a comment about todays debate...we are sincerely grateful and we would work on your correction to come out better in the next stage of the debate...Ayomitide77 and Gbemmie009 it was fun debating with you.I think you seriously didn't do research well on the debate.when myself and snoopy where talking we already gave up because the topic had more advantages than the disadvantages.teachers need not to be ban from interacting with students via social media...it was a debate so we had to switch our mind of thinking and change everything with our pen and paper...I expected more from you...hope to see you in the next stage. To the judges I know you didn't really like my debate...I am not really good at writing but if it comes to speaking to a live audience then count me in...All in all my mb that I subcribed on the modem finished just today...seriously we wasted more time than necessary...@ all Thanks and God bless

Can't say you're wrong though. It was really heated.

It was not about research bt the flow in my debate and this is because my phone could not contain all the words at once so I had to type the points seperately.When I joined the points together few minute to the debate on the PC,I knew the flow was missing.All thesame,I think there is still enough room for improvement.Congrats.

What a debate!.

UNILAG..
It was cheap 4 u guys sha..

AAUA..
The chief speaker was onpoint but you guys lost due to lack of adequate research..


Kudos to both teams..
I rep UNIBEN!!
