  2. Social media possesses a lot of positive attributes. However, it does have a negative side. If misused in the classroom it can lead to cyberbullying and issues in the class between peers. Before we incorporate it, we should give awareness on how to use it. We, as teachers, should show students the pros and cons of using it within a classroom setting. We should set boundaries.
