Technological advancements in conveying information and communication significantly influence society and nations' civilizational values. The mass media is a communication technology that substantially affects people's patterns of views, lifestyle, and culture. Electronic media is a type of mass media that is more popular and feasible than print media in conveying and receiving the latest news and messages. Therefore, students should create awareness about using social media for their learning to prevent the spread of immoral values and manners that can harm their self-identity, family and society. A scholarly standard to monitor social media content at the university level is very relevant in the era of technology that can guide students and society. A holistic model must be developed for social media education in the technology era that uses social media a lot to ensure that consumers use it morally following a nation's legal principles. This holistic model gives some implications for social media education, offering the proper use of social media in learning and teaching based on the correct principles and guidelines. It is very significant to impact the development of students' personalities positively, and this will contribute to the thriving culture through the proper use of social media among young generations.
