Therefore, three objectives in this study achieved, first researcher can identify that Google Classroom is a major social media medium used by teachers and students in the Teaching and Learning process. Secondly, researcher can determine the characteristics that should be on social media in order to make it easier for teachers and students to access the material teaching and learning and this can found in Google classroom. Finally, the third objective is to identify the level of social media feasibility for learning as Google Classroom as it is academic and scientific. This has proven that social media contributes significantly to the education world and indirectly brings about changes in beliefs, values, and attitudes (Anwar, 2017).
Even so, the results showed the use of Google Classroom is not yet fully developed because it was newly introduced in schools, colleges and also at the university. Most students think they can't use Google Classroom to learn without high levels of internet access. This may be caused by a limitation of the access to the Internet in school. Still there is a hope for teachers to maximize the use of Google Classroom by sharing their knowledge and teaching materials (Pitchan et al., 2017).

These advanced mediums also help teachers and students to teach and learn more systematically and effectively. The use of technology needs to be nurtured when students are in secondary school so that they can better prepare for the future of college and university learning. Furthermore, teachers and students also need to improve their technology usage skills and learn the right techniques to make use of the technology available. As such, it is the responsibility of all parties including the Ministry of Education Malaysia, the administration, teachers, parents and students themselves to realize the proper use of media in teaching and learning.
