Positive:
•Reading news online
•Listening to music

•Social media could play a role in future networking among college graduates
Negative:
•texting to chatting on mobile phones and even just posting status updates on Facebook,could take an academic toll
•Many students are engaged nearly half the day(12hrs) in some form of media use.Researchers found much of this high use of media was associated with lower grade point averages (GPAs) and other negative academic outcomes.
•social media could be a great distraction for those still taking classes
•For young people living independently and are away from parental monitoring,too much media could get in the way of academic activities including studying.]]> 2020-01-14 13:56:18 UTC https://padlet.com/ONGG/SM2E3/wish/431284158 https://padlet.com/ONGG/SM2E3/wish/432246280 Group 7

Positive Impacts:
1)A major part of the economy are now depending on the social media activity of kids.
2)Instead of watching a TV channel, today's teens get to watch each other that in its self amounts to power , freedom and agency .
3)New musicians and new writers alike must demonstrate that they have social media followings in order to find distribution and sponsor
4)social media platforms are embedded with values that shape our perspectives and our behaviour

Negative impacts
1)If we live in a social media landscape without an awareness of what it really wants from us ,no one is really being empowered at all
2)Although major parts of the economy are now depending on the social media activity of kids, it is not worth putting such a pressure on them.
