A recent study in a school in Great Britain has shown that Facebook has a very negative impact on the performance of students in school. Everything about?

The school has conducted research and testing to determine whether social media, most popular among them Facebook, in any way affects student achievement. The test was conducted so that over a period of three months, the first two months access to Facebook was denied and the third month access to Facebook was allowed. The results showed that a sample of three months was enough to reach a conclusion. In the third month, during the period of using Facebook, a slight deterioration in ratings was noted, but what is more important still is the lack of concentration and low acceptance of knowledge. To test the level of concentration and the quality of teaching, in the last week a lesson was held to summarize what was learned in each subject. Students have participated in this summary and it turned out that the results were much worse in the third month. This test has shown that Facebook and other social networks have the most negative influence on the quality of education.

The problem does not occur only in the case that the students have logged into Facebook and have not paid attention to what the teacher is saying. The problem lies in the fact that the “current events” on Facebook distract them also when they are not connected to it. Teenagers use social networks as a way to call a meeting with someone, declare love, etc., which in the socializing aspect is much easier to do than in the real world. In those situations, waiting for a response creates the need to constantly visit Facebook.

All this mentioned, and many other elements, are the reason why the test results showed that the use of social networks in school has a negative impact on grades, teaching follow-up and student concentration. . One more reason to block Facebook in schools.
