Therefore H0 is accepted. Conclusion and Recommendation Conclusion Most of the respondents indicated that facebook have a negative effect on education. For instance, facebook users spent much time on facebook and less time to study their courses. But respondents that are not facebook users spent their much time on studying their courses.
Recommendations Based on the findings that we made, we forwarded the following recommendation: Facebook users should use facebook for educational purpose. Facebook users should treat their facebook time and study time fairly. Based on the respondents, using facebook is wasting their learning time, so the school needs to limit the connection(allow the connection for a limited time)
