Personal opinions are certainly respected, yet let us look into them from another perspective. Here, you will come to know how social media can be used as a learning platform.

  • Find out communities or groups on e-learning platforms where you can post your queries and clear doubts. Two-way communication through social media is one of the effective methods of learning.
