I also have to agree thart social media is a distration, since these stuydents are brought up using technology, always on their phone either on facebook or texting or even just on line browsing the fact remains they seem to keep themselves very occuppied with their fingers constantly. I believe using social media may lead them to wonder off and wait till the last minute to get the assignment done, buts thats my opinion yet I have not tried it to really compare. Has anyone tried using social media and what was the outcome please share?

I have to agree, It's funny how i am part of Gen X and I try to teach how I was taught. Now I better understand Gen Y It will bhelp me to to step up my game and bring in some fun leArning ways to help this generation want to learn.
