Facebook use as a methodological strategy

Today’s students have grown up in a "digital world" surrounded by social media and mobile technologies in this way, new ways of understanding, learning and processing information have been developed. As social media evolve, teachers have to find innovative ways to take advantage of the power of these technologies to improve their curriculum, and support different learning styles in the area of Social Sciences.

Teachers are beginning to realize the great potential that Facebook has in the classroom, not as much as a distraction, but as a collaborative learning tool for sixth -year -old productive high school students, it is also intended to analyze Facebook’s pedagogical managementIf it is a support tool and leads to didactic interaction by enhancing learning, in this way it will be observed about the use of social networks as a didactic resource that promotes and facilitates collaborative exchange between students and teacher.

The fact of offering people access to digital platforms in these learning environments, provides them with the basic and essential skills that allow them to know howthat education has benefited from the benefits offered.

Since its inception on the world stage, the Internet has meant a tool with innumerable advantages in the supply of information platforms in various fields of life. One of them is the educational area. In developing countries, education is a priority: she transforms society and technology has the power to transform education.

This is how society benefits from an efficient and effective educational system. 

Therefore, the application of technology in the teaching-learning process is studied;But it is more than technology, it refers to the elements that integrate the teaching-learning process, schools and teachers are usually very conservative when integrating new educational practices, probably in the past this did not show too much because the changes wereslower, now the technological revolution and the teaching revolution of the productive sociocomune educational model is causing so dramatic changes that every day the gap is expanding between the ways of teaching and the ways of learning.

We have heard many of those arguments that do not resist the greatest analysis and that, in most cases, arise from the most absolute ignorance of these sites and we already know what happens when we think or order about what we ignore, making it impossible for their argumentation. 

However, not considering these new technologies in education, the possibilities of supporting the educational processes of teaching -learning with significant, innovative, entertaining methodologies, which gives them a special characteristic by keeping them in force at any time or place. 

Unfortunately, very little is being made to recognize and explore the educational potential of these social networks. It is clear that with them young people interrelate, exchange information, connect from another place, and fundamentally feel motivated by the proximity to their usual reality.
