Grade 8-FSF1D Today, students worked on their ATL (Approach to Learning) skills. The class worked in small groups to find out (brainstorm) about their use of social medias and how to monitor their use. Some of the findings were answering: why they use social medias such as Instagram. The answer that was the most prominent was 'we want to find out what others are doing: gossiping, share school information, and entertainment...etc.
When the question about how much time they spent on social medias came up,...the answer was an average of 4 to 5 hours a day! Students mapped out their day between usual daily activities and compared how much time was spent on social media through the day. Surprise?
