Social networking is a network communication that people use to interact with each other. It is also a convenient means of communicating to the public freely. Social networks have a unique feature from the other networks. They tend to bring together people of the same interest. Also, these people are able to share each other’s personal profile. Therefore, it is a unique network that influences several people to watch (Boyd & Ellison, 2007).
Social media has tremendously increased in its usage for the past ten years. As a result, most people have accounts in Twitter, Facebook and MySpace. Social media has become part of their lives. For instance, YouTube has become a preference of many people. It has made people to shift from watching TV. Instead, they have turned to YouTube for any news updates (Boyd & Ellison, 2007).
Some schools and organizations have come up with several arguments about blocking the access of these social networks. For instance, schools argue that it will be hard for them to control the information students will be receiving. This is because some of this information will mislead students. As a result, the social networks will distract the learning process of students. Also, students will become victims of Facebook and Twitter. This might make them skip some of their classes (Rambe, 2011). On the other hand, managers argue it is dangerous to allow social networks to employees. This is because most employees will spend much of their time on Facebook, YouTube and Twitter. Rambe (2011) argues that this will end up reducing organization’s performance.
However, it is hard for schools and organizations to block social networks to employees and students. According to Rambe (2011), social networks have become of our technological revolutions. This implies that it has become people’s part of life. Therefore, it will be hard for organizations and schools to block their students and employees from accessing social networks. Instead, they should advise their students and employees the proper ways of using them (LeNoue & Eighmy, 2011). As much as social networks have demerits, they also have merits. For instance, they can provide quick access to research. Therefore, students can use them for research purposes. Also, employees can use them to research for vital information concerning their area of work in an organization (LeNoue & Eighmy, 2011).
Therefore, it is not ideal to block social networks. Blocking social networks will prevent students from advancing their studies. Also, it will prevent employees from advancing their skills at work place. For instance, Facebook is important to students in schools. It helps students to develop and advance their social interactions. Also, it can provide a fast and inexpensive method of gathering and collecting data. These social networks are also vital in organizations. For instance, many organizations use them to advertise for their products and services. They are less expensive ethan using TVs, radios and newspapers. Also, social networks enable people to exchange ideas from one country to another. They diversify people’s way of thinking and looking at things. This implies that it will bad for schools and organizations to block these websites tit hoer students and employees.
In addition, social networks are beneficial in schools. For instance, YouTube helps students in visual learning. They use it for presentations. Also, teachers use YouTube as teaching tools for students. Finally, social networks have improved the learning systems in schools. For instance, a student is able to down a difficult topic and upload it to his/her teacher for clear explanations. This has led to students performing high in their exams.
The possible solution to schools and organizations is to teach their students and employees the proper ways of using social networks. For instance, let schools teach their students the best time to use these social networks. This will assist students in realizing and knowing the best time to engage in these social networks. As a result, a student will try to avoid using these students in an inappropriate time without being prevented them from using them completely. On the other hand, organizations should know that social networks are important marketing tools for their products and services. Therefore, organizations should come with best advices for their employees. Let them let their employees know the best time to use these social networks. Also, organizations should hold several meetings with their employees about the advantages and disadvantages of social networks. As result, employees will know proper ways of using social networks to enrich themselves and the entire organization.
In conclusion, social networks can be beneficial or a loss in organizations and schools. It all depends how, when and what one uses it for. For instance, it is beneficial if employees and students use it well. On the other hand, it is bad if students and employees use it wrongly.
