Conclusion
• The role of social media in teaching and learning has definitelyput the onus on all the stakeholders to take the necessaryinitiative so as to cultivate a culture where it can be used byone and all. Initial resistance as is evident while incorporatinga new mechanism by bringing out the teacher-learner duoshould be considered as routine and can very easily beovercome if the benefits are clearly experienced by the users.Simplifying and making the learning process more interestingshould be the sole objective, for which social media play avital role across disciplines of teaching and learning. The timeis ripe for all to join in chorus for leveraging this excellent toolin the larger interest of the human kind.
