Abstract: The purpose of this study is to explain the design of exposition text teaching materials using the Flip PDF Corporate application, and to explain the results of the implementation of it to 8th grade students of junior high school. The method used is a research and development method. This study used ADDIE which consists of five steps, namely analysis, design, development, implementation, and evaluation. The product of this research development is exposition text e-module teaching materials. The research began with an analysis of student and teacher needs for digital teaching materials for exposition texts, as well as an analysis of the basic competencies of exposition texts. From this research, the exposition text e-module teaching materials were developed through expert validation, including Indonesian language experts and digital media experts. The results showed that the design of exposition text teaching materials presented using the Flip PDF Corporate had an e-module structure consisting of; 1) Cover, 2) Identity of Teaching Materials, 3) Introduction, 4) Table of Contents, 5) List of Figures, 6) List of Tables, 7) Chapter I Introduction (description, prerequisites, objectives), 8) Chapter II Exposition Text (Reviewing the exposition text, presenting the exposition text, evaluating), 9) Chapter III Closing, 10) Bibliography, 11) Glossary, and 12) Author Profile. The results of the implementation of exposition text teaching materials using the Flip PDF Corporate showed that the test result score was an average of 79.50 above the KKM standard score and had a good classification score. This proved that all students passed the grades since they are above the KKM standard score. Based on the grade classification, there are 53% of students who have good grade criteria, and 47% of students have very good grade criteria. The results of the implementation based on student responses also showed that the score of the aspects of material quality and technical quality has good criteria.

Abstract: This study examined the Use of Social Media among the Students in Tanzania. Descriptive statistics and content analysis were used to analyze data. As regard factors triggering use of social media, the findings showed social media is significantly influenced by online learning. It provides an exciting learning platform where students can access academic content such as easy to access audio-visual materials and enhance learning though only a few students have a good balance between social media time and doing other school work. As regard the challenges of using social media, cyber-bullying, exposure to unsuitable digital contents, sleep deprivation, devoting lesser time in studies and online dating due to chatting with unknown adult strangers that lead to sexual solicitation from them were prevalent. Based on the findings it can be concluded that there is increased use of social media among secondary school students. Both negative and positive effects of social media use among students were revealed. The common perception on social media use among students has been negative. This study revealed some positive ways of using social media to enhance learning including accessing educational content. Social media use cannot be fully accepted without critique. This makes it necessary for students to be guided on how to use it appropriately. On the basis of the findings and conclusions of the study, the following recommendations can be made: Teachers, parents and police should teach young Internet users Internet safety advice on how to perceive and avoid potentially predatory communications and relationships with adults. They should also teach them how to use the internet safely and not chatting to strangers online.
