INTRODUCTION We’ve been waiting a long time for

computers to dramatically change education, but for the most part, that promise remains unfulfilled. Unlike in the business world, where the computer quickly became a fixture on every desk and transformed both day-to-day tasks and the business landscape as a whole, computers have not transformed the goals of educators, or even the methods used to achieve those goals.

CONTINUED Social networking is built on the idea of how

people know should know and interact with each other. It gives people the power to share, making the world more open and connected. Nowadays, social networking has a vital influence on our live as it helps a lot in every field of life such as political field, economic field and educational field. However, this paper tries to highlight on the use of social networking in education and explain the advantages and disadvantages of using social networking of educational purpose. Through the help of The Internet education can be spread throughout Bangladesh as a “Social Network”.

BACKGROUND There has been an increase in

‘backchannels’ in classrooms ranging from primary schools to universities. They have been set up because of increased use of microblogging platforms such as Twitter and educational social network sites such as Edmodo. These backchannels have enabled students to provide feedback and ask questions (either to their peers or to the instructor); this is especially true for students who are not active participants in oral discussions, as they feel more comfortable and free to express their opinions in an online setting.

CONTINUED Some students who are involved in backchannels

in their learning environments noted that “...everybody is heard in our class...”, and it has allowed them to have a greater appreciation of their peers, perceiving them “...as more intelligent, seeing their thought process and understanding them on a deeper level.” (Tanvir , Dhanmondi Govt. High School, 2011).We tried to use such these aspects and create a Educational Social Network just for the students of Bangladesh as they have none to go with in the first place. This Educational Social Network will work as a catalyst to bring out the youngest and brightest talents from all over the country.

DESCRIPTION The Educational social Networking site that we

created is a user friendly and a very effective method for the students to interact with one another whether they’re from the same institution or not. The Main Interface Will have a log-in panel where students must enter their username and Password for logging into the site. Then they can Create their profile containing their institution, friends, area, preferences etc. they can also store their institutional information as well for that they’ll have to enlist their institution in their profile. Furthermore they can be updated with the day to day news if they are subscribed to the news portion of the website .

Another Feature of our ESN is the Online Classroom and discussion section where students from the same section/semester/department can chat, discuss and solve their day to day Problems regarding to a subject. They can also use this feature as submitting assignments or homework given by the teacher .

KEY FEATURES OF USING OUR ESN

In the field of education, social-networking sites offer a student the opportunity to connect with other students, educators, administrators, alumni, both within and outside his current institution. Scholars praise social-networking tools for their capability to attract, motivate and engage students in meaningful communicative practice, content exchange, and collaboration. There are some of opportunities in the use social networking in education and Our Educational Network System offers some of them.  

CONTINUEDFlexibility : 

“Flexible learning expands choice on what, when, where and how people learn. It supports different styles of learning, including e-learning. Flexibility means anticipating, and responding to, the ever-changing needs and expectations of Vocational Education and Training clients - enterprises learners and communities". In our Educational Social Network we tried to provide as Interactions as Flexible as possible

CONTINUED Repeatable :

Remember information depends on all of our sensory, while the response depends on the features of individual and the motivation to learn. So, it must be therefore provided a way that has offered for a learner the possibility of repetition, which is rarely offered by traditional educational institute in Bangladesh. Our Educational social networking has offered this way through their sites and gives the opportunity for learners to retrieve the information immediately or later.

CONTINUEDConvenience and accessibility :

  Our Educational social networking is easy and quick in term of accessing accessibility, reviewing, updating, and editing learning material needs anytime and anywhere. In addition, it allows for option to select learning materials from large quantity of courses offered online which the learner needs and it also makes easier distribution of courses material.

EDUCATIONAL DEVELOPMENT Through this educational networking,

Students are able to have a 24x7 online experience not unlike the rich connecting and sharing that have typically been reserved for special interest — except that geography is no longer a constraint, the critical mass of interest needed can be much lower, and the time and cost to participate (both for the Student and the school) are both affordable.

CONTINUED With our educational networking,

there’s a higher probability that:  1.Students will be able to participate in

the events that will actually make a difference for them, their students, and their institutions.

  2. Continuous learning can be

encouraged and accomplished. 

CONTINUED 3. Changing regulations,

requirements, standards, and all the information about the institutional facility can be kept up with.

  4. Educators will be able to meet the

demands for customized approaches that Meets the specific needs and learning styles of all of their students.

THE E-R DIAGRAM OF THE ESN

CHALLENGES AND DIFFICULTIES

  Entering the details about the Student

Information, Institutional Information, Course and Other Information tracking the database is complicated when the details are maintained manually. This makes the maintenance of schedule erroneous.

CONTINUED Limitation of the ESN Database

Management system : It is time consuming It leads to error prone results It consumes lot of manpower to better

results It lacks of data securityRetrieval of data takes lot of timePercentage of accuracy is lessReports take time to produce

SUMMARY This Educational social network will work as a

Regular Social Networking site but it works with students and students only. This site will register most of the students from known to unknown institution and grant them a platform to shine. Web-based Learning Platforms integrating Social Networking for Design Education has served its purpose in many countries but it is very rare in Bangladesh. The main idea is to use the social networking to support education to build pedagogical model by using social networking and the study tried to identify the balance between developing individual creativity with group activity of collaboration.

CONCLUSION There are some benefits and obstacles that face

the using the social networking as educational tool. Privacy, taking up time and miscommunication are the most important challenges facing education through the social networking especially in Bangladesh. On the other hand, flexibility, repeatable and convenience and accessibility have a vital influence in the use of social networking in education. In addition, this paper addressed some of previous studies about the relationship between the social networking and education. In the Future this type of Social networking should be widely used in Bangladesh if this one becomes a huge success.
