Social Media and its ample use suggests about access to technology and having capability to express oneself that means a good ability to read and write. Access to technology and ability to read and write are one of the best measures of social, economic, scientific and human progress. However the outcomes are far from this reality. Instead social media is accused of influencing national elections by manipulation of democratic values, cultural dis harmony and sometimes outright war. There is more misunderstanding between cultures and religions whereas with more interactions educated individuals should have resolved cultural disputes. The context of knowledge and education is to create harmony, peace, economic and social progress and this context is entirely missing on social media. Thereby the pedagogy that enables an individual to critically evaluate information need to become the central theme of all levels of education delivery including primary, secondary and tertiary education.
