Teachers face almost relentless pressure to show their effectiveness. Unfortunately, the main indicators by which they evaluate success are the grades that students show on tests. Lately, if the standard results of school tests are high, it is thought that teaching is effective. If the standard test results are low, the teaching is considered ineffective. In any case, since the quality of education is measured by the wrong standard, these assessment grades are wrong. By using appropriate assessment strategies and techniques, teachers can increase students' motivation and demonstrate how well they have learnt the language. Evaluation goes beyond students' achievement and grades in order to consider all aspects of teaching and learning, but also to consider how educational decisions can arise from the results of alternative forms of assessment and evaluation.

Abstract
Social networks use a variety of models from the spectrum of the web technologies. These
tools were designed for entertainment and communication purposes, and the most commonly used
among students are social media tools. Knowing this teachers have incorporated in traditional
teaching strategies as part of increasing the ability of students to grasp the objectives. Considering
that most students find social media tools interesting, most researchers have supported this strategy
as one of the most innovative method of improving the learning outcomes.
Students today can learn almost everything on their own or with their teachers using the
Internet, talk to people from all over the world, share experiences with their peers, get to know the
world and other peoples, customs, cultures through their own personal experience. Researching a
particular topic and finding information, literature by authors from around the world, as well as
literary criticism are things that can open their view of the world, as well as enable them to think
critically and creatively are some of the more significant benefits of global network.
This study wants to indicate the level of awareness in teachers and students about the
proper use of social media and media literacy as well as to address to the necessity to overcome
the lack of media literacy knowledge within youth as well as wider population. It also focuses to
pointing out of the dangers that social media causes with illiterate youth. Students that daily take
in a huge amount of information from a wide array of sources are going to become better critical
thinkers, smart consumers that recognize the point of view and recognize the author’s goal.
Hopefully in future teachers will pay more attention to what extent their students use social media
and in what manner and pay particular attention to teach them how to be more alert when using
social media.
KEY WORDS: education, media literacy, awareness.
