Abstract

In the 21st century, technological developments have brought innovations in communication technologies. These innovations in communication technologies have also led to innovations in people’s communication skills. Social media sites such as Facebook and Twitter are widely used by many segments of society, especially young people. The widespread use of social networks by young people has led to the idea that it may increase the effectiveness of learning.
