In recent years these media have greatly influenced the perspective our young people have of seeing the world. For this reason, teachers should use this work as a tool for the integral development of young people. At present, the mass media are responsible;on the bad habits of adolescents of the lack of concentration, the abandonment of values, or the misapplied application of the same, the low school performance.
