doing, and also let them know what is happening in your life, using words, photos, and other media.Users can
connect with like-minded people. Social networking makes it easy to join groups and make friends online with
others who share your particular interests, even if it is relatively obscure.Connections with others can be made long
distance and across international boundaries.Social networking can increase voting rates and facilitate political
change. Political campaigns such as elections, boycotts, rallies, and marches can all be set up and run via social
media.Large amounts of people can be contacted quickly in the event of an emergency event, such as a hurricane,
wildfire, or terrorist attack.Certain groups, such as senior citizens, or the physically disabled, are able to maintain

like LinkedIn are particularly suited for this purpose.The interactivity of social media allows for public discussions

9. Pragmatic-representative
Each of us uses social media in our daily life, and there are various use cases:
 To find information
Finding information is the most popular way to use the Internet. Almost everyone needs it for this. To search for browser is
used - this is a search engine.
 To communicate with people
The Internet made it possible to communicate without leaving home with all your relatives, colleagues, friends, or just with
strangers. Thanks to this opportunity, many people need it precisely for comfortable communication.
 For fun.
They also use the Internet to have fun. For example, the main entertainment is computer games, music, video
 For permanent work.
The smallest part of users uses the Internet. Approximately 1% of all. Nevertheless, he is needed for her too.
 For bargain purchases.
Power users use the internet to make good purchases. It is very convenient to order yourself a cheap item from abroad and
get it at the nearest post office.

10. Analytical Evaluation
If social media plays such a big role in our lives, then it is very important to understand how it affects us. I think that it greatly affects the emotional state,
mood.
 Low self-esteem
Users of social networks are not always honest with each other: they rarely talk about their real life, more often they create some kind of ideal mold of
themselves. Constantly comparing yourself to others weakens and lowers self-esteem.
 The stress of losing information.
If the computer "freezes, important and useful information is lost, the computer slows down, then this can cause nervousness, increased blood
pressure, and poor sleep.
 Mental disorders.
With problems in real life, communicating with other people, a person is looking for what he lacks in books, watching TV, and a computer. Therefore,
sometimes he plunges into the computer world completely, forgetting about the real world.
 Anxiety
Social media also affects overall levels of anxiety, sleep, and concentration. It is social media that is causing concern
 Addiction
Social media addiction does exist, it can be considered a type of general internet addiction that is officially recognized
 Wellbeing
People with emotional instability are more likely to write about their feelings. As a result, the support they receive online helps them recover from
negative experiences faster.
All of these points greatly affect emotional health and of course it changes our characters.

11. Analytical Evaluation
 There are problems with social networks. Some parents are trying to find a solution, at least
a little distance their child from social networks. Some are walking together, reading books,
playing games, or just chatting. I think that the government in this case is inactive, does not
solve the problems of social networks. Because social media does not restrict views
regardless of the age of viewers
 Social networks have rapidly entered the life of any young Kazakhstan. In terms of
popularity, social networks are the number one motive for visiting the Internet by young
people in Kazakhstan, both from a computer and from a mobile device. According to
statistics, young people in Kazakhstan spend several hours daily on social networks. In the
near future, this figure will grow even more. The most popular social networks among young
people in Kazakhstan are Instagram, Tik tok and Youtube (regardless of the city).
 The active development of social networks in the future will cause a decrease in the intensity
of socialization in the real life of Kazakhstan. Active online friends, as a rule, meet less in real
life, they are less likely to go to joint offline parties, it is easier for them to discuss many points
online than, for example, to call or even meet. On the other hand, online socialization allows
young people to be always up to date, react almost instantly to any informational occasion.
