Facebook, A Blind Trend to Follow or A Meaningful Communication Base? A Study on Private University Students of Bangladesh

Abstract

This study reflects on educational leaders’ involvement with the private university students of Bangladesh in bringing out their true potentials of positive usage of Facebook for education and information sharing. This also shows the students know the range of educational and information they can use for their benefit of self-teaching and not to use this social application just for the sake of wasting time. They invest a lot of time on Facebook, so how to direct their rational and critical thinking can provide this ICT to be a base for them to enhance their performance in an academic setting as well. This further provides them to be confident in brainstorming, group working, writing, and speaking in a constructive manner which will align Bangladeshi private university students with global culture with the shared platform of social media -Facebook.
