This study uses a literature review approach, namely collecting references, reviewing theories, and analyzing the object being studied. Data were reviewed from all articles or journals published within the last 5 years. The results of this study indicate that the use of information technology, especially social media, can bring positive value if students can use these facilities for more positive things, for example, to increase knowledge, as a means of communication and also as a means of promoting something.
