Abstract
This study aims to measure the social media literacy level of primary school students in Baku. 60 randomly selected primary school students were interviewed, and the data were analyzed by the use of the content analysis technique. The results revealed that participants use social media to attend online classes, to gather information for doing their homework, to communicate with their friends, and to play games by using mobile phones, tablets, PCs and smart TVs. 68% of students take precautions to ensure their safety, 57% are aware of the potential risks and harms of social media, and 93% of them do not communicate with people they do not know personally. It is highly suggested that social media literacy education can be given to the students at the schools and the universities can educate the parents about being social media literate as part of their social responsibility to their communities.
