Students perspective: I think Facebook should stay blocked because of what would happen when it wasn't, students would refuse to do work and just talk to other people, mess around on games, ETC. There's a lot of content on there that isn't appropriate for their age group, scammers, gore, sexual content and more things like that, so in my opinion Facebook should stay blocked during class.
Teachers perspective: Facebook should be blocked because the students don't do their work, they're loud and only distract those actally trying to get their work done, Facebook does not help them in anyway they make excuses like "what if we need to message someone?" when if the message is THAT important than the school can be contacted and they will be imformed there, No matter the case all Facebook will do is cause problems.
Hi Matthew. My name is Jacinta and I work at the University of Auckland. I enjoyed reading your 2 persepctives on Facebook. I agree with many of the reasons you state in your argument. I was wondering though if you heard of reasons in support of facebook from others in the class? I also wonder what you think Mark Zuckerberg's perspective might be? Thank you Matthew, you have really made me think about this topic!
