Social Networking Vs Education by Jbravo58(m): 3:52am On Oct 04, 2014
Sometimes when I sit back
and analyze the pros and cons
of social networking sites like
facebook, 2go, badoo, twitter,
smiggle, BBM, etc on our
Nigerian society, I just weep
cos these internet
technologies have more
adverse effect on the level of
Nigerian students' academic
performance due to less time
students now devote to
studying/reading their books
when compared to the lion
share of their time which is
happily dedicated to chatting
and networking on the
internet via social networking
sites.
An average Nigerian student
spends 2/3 of his/her time
browsing or chatting with
friends and people he/she
don't even know than
reading his/her book.
This generally has affected
the Nigerian peoples' reading
habit. For instance, many
Nigerians in the past buy
novels and read to pass time
and to entertain themselves,
but that culture is gradually
going into extinction cos
youths now prefer to chat on
social networking sites than
reading their books.
Our government needs to do
something soon, cos this
Internet technology seem to
be doing Nigerians more harm
than good. Even employees
now spend more time
networking online than on
doing their paid jobs.
Now, do you agree that social
networking sites are
gradually killing academic
performance of Nigerian
students? If no, give reason
to back your claims. And
lastly, how has this
technology affected your
performance as a student or
as an employee?
Goodmorning and happy new
month to you all.

If person what he is doing,he/she won't spend all his time on social networking,he will plan for his time to study also,,,dats my own view

Mind u,not all people you see busy with phone all the time are busy chatting/social networking,some may be using their phone to read educational items,goole out facts.
