Abstract

This study examines the transformative impact of social media and e-commerce on education in India. With the proliferation of digital platforms, including social networking sites and online marketplaces, the landscape of education has undergone significant changes. Through qualitative and quantitative analysis, this research explores how social media platforms and e-commerce channels are reshaping teaching and learning practices, access to educational resources, and the delivery of educational services in India. Findings indicate that social media facilitates collaborative learning, knowledge sharing, and community building among students and educators. Additionally, e-commerce platforms offer access to a wide range of educational materials, courses, and services, enabling learners to pursue personalized and flexible learning pathways. The insights gleaned from this study contribute to a deeper understanding of the role of digital technologies in transforming education and inform strategies for leveraging social media and e-commerce to enhance educational outcomes in India.
