Social media is changing education in several ways. It allows for free resources that build cultural understanding and amplify student passions. As the world becomes more globally connected through social media, education must also become more open and expose students to new ideas. Students are now growing up using apps, online games, and social media to connect with others outside the classroom. Social media is also changing educators, allowing them to communicate instantly with students and use blogs to share their perspectives.
