Social media in teaching

Use of We-chat and Whats app has been a very effective tool for communication with children through their parents. In my class we have a We-chat group with parents where I deliver necessary messages needed for children and parents.
One Friday I suddenly thought of conducting a test on Monday but children were already home and I could not figure it out what to be done. Than I thought of informing the children through we-chat that on Monday I will be conducting an open test for which I will be giving out the questions today in this we-chat. So I gave all the questions which is going to come in the test and reminded all the children to prepare well for the test.












On Monday in the class I made them to discuss in their groups the questions and the answers, to be written in the test for 10 minutes.
After that I conducted the test and did the correction.
To my surprise I found out that 95% of students could score 10 out of 10.
I concluded that learning can happen in any dimension, but more learning happens when they already know what they need to learn. So dear colleagues please try out what I had done to my children, hope it might also benefit your children too.

  6. I completely support your stand on use of wechat for our children while learning. I found most of the teachers creating parents wechat group to discriminate the the information. But I think presently use of whatsapp is not that famous.
