Education › Re: 5 Key Skills Most Nigerian Students Are Gradually Losing Due To Social Media by Jaymoney5000(m): 4:19pm On Aug 15, 2019 |
August21: As Technology advances around the World, educators and administrators are striving to use and/or create the most digitally aligned curriculum available, ranging from e-books in place of print titles to fully interactive learning management systems.
RECOMMENDED FOR YOU: 5 THINGS EVERY STUDENT MUST DO TO BE SUCCESSFUL
Why? You make ask. The reason is not far-fetched, it is simply to provide students with the best possible chance of success in an almost entirely digital world.
However, research has established that the same technology that is meant to aid in future accomplishments ends up as a distraction for most students instead?
We all know what happens when technology, such as social media and other online applications supersedes a student’s desire to engage in skill-building activities?
From careful observation, below are five skills that are often lost or poorly developed as a result of ‘addiction’ to social media by students.
Communication Skills Writing is a part of nearly every job, however small or large a part it may be. Today, though, one of the most common complaints received from employers is that MOST job candidates cannot write properly.
The cause of this has been traced to the use of shorthand during chats on facebook, twitter and Instagram by this generation. Because most of their communication is shorthand and text, the ability to communicate effectively is challenged,”
2. Interpersonal skills
Making eye contact, holding a conversation, deportment and maintaining one’s attention span are just as critical as being able to communicate in written form, but these, too, are often lost or diminished as a result of excessive use of social media by present day Nigerian students.
Today, students are more often concerned about what’s happening on social media than they are in human to human interaction.
3. Critical Thinking
Critical thinking means to think very deeply about one’s options before taking that final decision. What must I evaluate and in which context? How do I break a subject down for proper analysis? And finally, how did I come to my conclusion? These are all key steps in solving a problem and/or making a decision. Almost all employers know this, but for students who are engrossed in retweeting, posting, commenting and ‘liking’ different posts on social media, these concepts may be all but lost on them. Why? Technology is often wrought with immediate gratification. Click a button, and your answer appears. No need to evaluate or analyze. No need to think about one’s thinking process.
4. Problem-solving skills
Another skill students are losing in this present age is problem-solving skills. This skill is critical for success in any given job because to use it effectively, you should be able to use your imagination.
People with problem –solving skills are often deep analytical thinkers. When faced with challenges they often consider the potential resolutions to any problem, and how might they be able to reach said resolutions? This type of hypothetical inventiveness and subsequent scrutiny is a skill that can rarely be found inside of a screen. Rather, it requires the ability to mentally multitask and often maintain deep and sustained thought. This however is often fractured by the fast-paced and ever-changing world of social media.
5. Reflective skills
If a problem has been solved, or a decision made, reflecting on the process is also a key step.
It is therefore a key step that ensures proper routing for future thinking.
However, once due to the instantaneous nature of much of the technology coveted by students today, decisions and problems are here and gone in a moment. Technology moves on, and so do its users. Thus, learning to reflect on one’s behaviors is a skill rarely developed by many students.

In a fast paced World like ours, stakeholders need to brainstorm on ways or strategies that can be deployed to make sure students focus on developing these skill sets again.
Therefore, a deliberate effort has to be made by all stakeholders to not only empower students with technological skills they need to excel in today’s World but to also design solutions that will ensure that students interact with applications that would mimic real-world interactions and not just screens.

As great as messi is he has never compared himself with anyone. That's a true legend.whoever hypes himself is unsecured. A true hero allow fans or people to hail him.no doubt Ronaldo is great but messi is the real GOAT.[/quot

In fact, every one makes mistake once in while, but a blunder like the one above is calamitous, frightening, horrendous....this is simply unacceptable bros. I just don't know what to say. Pls stop supporting failure. Don't bother to quote me as i won't respond. Oga keep quiet joor d guy is right.... |
Education › Re: The Letter From Senior Staff Of ABU, Zaria That Is Trending Online by Jaymoney5000(m): 6:23pm On Jul 28, 2019 |
Cutealexio: Use of English does not determine the level of intelligence. If you visit some countries in Europe or Asia you will see a lot of brilliant and intelligent professionals in various fields that speaks and write terribly but that does not mean they're not up to task in their specializations. If you are well travelled you will get used to ignoring grammatical blunders (ignore mine�) I don't know why Nigerians are so addicted to English Language.... It's only in Nigeria that they will doubt the competence of a doctor or an engineer because of his/her use of English. You can study these courses in other languages too... This shouldn't trend at all God bless you for this enlightening statement.... White aren't even good with their use of English but na NIGERIA Cary am pass |
