Good day to my esteemed judges, illustrious coordinators, fellow co-debaters, and my informed audience, all other protocols duly observed. My username is Ayomitide77; representing Adekunle Ajasin University,Akungba.I am honoured to oppose the notion which says "Teachers should be ban from interacting with students via Social networking websites". Education in its general sense is a form of learning in which the knowledge, skills and habits of a group of people are transferred from one generation to the next through teaching or training. It requires someone who has passed through various stages of learning and experience commonly referred to as a teacher to pass knowledge to another set of people known as students. For this to be achieved there must be some sort of interaction between them. Teacher-Student interaction plays an important role in the way students learn and assimilate what they are taught by their teachers. Before I proceed further, I would like to define the key terms in the topic to enable us have a better understanding of the topic. According to Wikipedia, a teacher is a person that provides education for students. It also refers to a person that teaches or instructs someone else in something they are more knowledgeable in than the other person while a student on the other hand is a person who attends an educational institution [college, university, etc] with the sole aim of gaining knowledge about something. Interaction as name implies is a kind of action that occurs as two or more object or person have an effect upon one another. Social networking websites are websites that enables users to create a public profile within that website and form relationship with other users of the same website. It can be used to describe community based websites, online discussion forums, chat rooms and other social spaces online. As we all know that we are in the 21st century where social networking websites is no longer an option but a necessity as it usage cuts across all varieties of life. There are obviously bunch of tremendous benefits that teachers and students can derive from interacting with each other via social networking websites and some of the benefits will be highlighted. Some educators have found social networking websites to be a revelation since it creation because it acts as an excellent tool which can be harnessed by both teachers and students to make learning easier. Social networking websites such as [url=edmodo.com]Edmodo[/url], [url=teachertube.com]Teachertube[/url], and [url=21classes.com]21classes[/url] provides online learning tools that teachers can make use to enhance students creativity by which it turn makes teaching much more easier. Teachers also see social networking website as an avenue of creating online quizzes , assignments, lectures and tutorials for students thereby making learning fun-filled. Teachers creating a group for the class on social networking websites makes it easier for teachers to pass important updates and messages to his/her students. Social networking websites serve as a means by which teachers keep in touch with students especially during holiday break. Teachers also observe social networking websites to be a good way of getting students who are shy in class to participate more. Shyness as they say is a symptom of low self esteem and low self esteem affects the rate at which students participate and perform in the class. But when this category of students interact with their teachers on social networking websites, it will definitely boost their confidence and make them bold enough to participate and express themselves better in the class. A research on why students fail a particular examination or test has shown that it is mainly not because they are not serious or attentive enough but because they are either afraid or they don’t like the teacher involved. Some teachers are not as strict as students assume them to be and this is mainly because they know little or nothing about their teachers but when they interact with their teachers via social networking websites, they will be able to find out a lot about their teachers thereby enabling them to develop a decent rapport between them. Teacher-student interaction via social networking websites is envitable. In Missouri, for example, a bill called the 'Amy Hestir Student Protection Act' was signed by their Governor, Governor Jay Nixon. The bill banned teachers from interacting with students via social networking websites and other electronic device with the aim of protecting students from scandals and violations. But when a comprehensive analysis was made and polls conducted, it was discovered that teacher-student interaction on social networking website was indispensable and the bill was revamped. Sometimes, students feel awkward whenever they want to ask question from their teachers during class session either due to the high population of the student in the classroom or because they are afraid of asking a silly question and this is very detrimental to the student academic life. Some students may even attempt to see the teacher after the class but the teacher's lecture schedule might not permit him/her to entertain questions at that particular time but with social networking websites, the teacher can easily ask his/her question perhaps after school hours. The importance of teacher-student interaction via social networking websites cannot be overemphasized. I do think there are definitely dangers in teachers and students interaction via social networking websites but the positive effects out rightly outweigh the negative effect. I think with these few but detailed points of mine, I have been able to clear all the minds of doubting Thomas among us that ‘Teachers should be allowed to interact with students via social networking websites’ Reference[b][/b] 1.
