Social media v/s Education
Is social media actually taking over education!
I always like to write live(life) examples/incidents, i feel the person is more connected to the content, and talking about content:
So, here's the thing. Last night, we had this family hangout, right? Just a chill get-together with everyone chatting away. My cousin starts talking about her son, my nephew, and how he's been glued to his screen more than his books lately. She's worried about his studies and health, you know? She tells him he needs to hit the books if he wants a bright future. But then, my nephew drops this bomb: "It's cool, I don't need to study. I want to be an influencer and start my own channel. You can make loads of money from that!"
And then my cousin's like, "Do you even know why we send you to school? What's your teacher there for?" And he goes, "Well, my teacher makes videos too and even said to another teacher that you can earn more from YouTube than teaching!"
That got me thinking. I mean, what’s happening with our education system? We had such a blast in school with awesome teachers, and now it seems like things are shifting. I wanted to tell him so much, but I was just stuck there, wondering if social media is really taking over education. Crazy, right?
