While YouTube is still banned in several schools here in Canada and the United States, stats coming out of youTube administration show just how popular this video hosting platform is among netizens. I personally can not understand why some school districts revoke access to this video platform in schools when almost all students have access to it on their smart phones and other hand held devices. Banning social media in formal educational settings is not the solution it is part of the problem. And until all students have open and equitable access to social media websites in schools, let's hope that teachers will continue to look for and use other viable alternatives to enhance students learning.
