Why you have chosen this article to evaluate?
(Briefly explain why you chose it, why it matters, and what your preliminary impression of it was.)

I choose this article because social media and the internet do play a large role in students school day even.It could be for school work or it could just be for fun social media and the internet is always there.I also believe that it very controlling on the young minds.It matters because the internet is taking over and adults have to learn how to control the internet before it takes over anymore leaving student to really focus on their phone and computer instead of the material they may need in the future to know more.My preliminary impression of social media in education is that it is very true that many students depend on social media and the internet more than they depend on the work in school

Lead Section:I believe this lead section could have used more detail when first explaining the topic and could have more of a description on education. Also if you were going to use the definition on social media also use the definition of education so that it has the same effect.But it was very concise which is also very good.Content:The information was up to date and was also still informative.Something I would add is the apps students use when their not in school so that schools can lookout for those so that they can have the students stay focus on the ones they should be using in school.

Tone and Balances:The tone of the whole article was great and very informative.It gave you information that is very useful for school and those who are students.

Source and References:Many of the link in the article did work and it directed me to the right pages.There were many references at the bottom of the page which is good because having background information is very good to have and knowing where it came from.

Organization:The organization of the article was great but the only thing I think I would change is have sections "use" and "Methods institutions use to communicate" switch because the use of the social media platforms I feel should go after the apps.

Image and Media:This article does not include any pictures and that is something I would add because pictures I feel usually grabs people attention more.

Talk Page discussion:In the talk page it gave great feedback explaining that the article is organized and good to read.There was also some who added a reading that would be helpful in the article giving it more information.Wiki project rated this article a C but I think it should be a little better than that.

Overall Impressions:I really like this article because I feel that it was well organized and very easy to read where it wasn't confusing.There are somethings I would add for example apps that students are using now to keep a watch out for when they are using in school instead of doing work but overall I think it was good.
