conditions. It has proven to be especially beneficial in the rehabilitative and psychiatric fields
of college courses. New virtual reality apps have been developed to assist those who are
 frequently anxious. Virtual reality is being used in a variety of settings, including shopping,
vehicle manufacture, and exercise. However, transporting humans to new worlds remains a
difficulty. Virtual reality is all about how you generate perceptions of objects and the methods

suffers as a result. The drawback is that our communication styles have evolved, posing a
challenge to our ability to form meaningful connections. Millennials prefer to communicate
digitally rather than in person. The development of social media has altered the way people
communicate around the world. The growth in communication speed has fostered a sense of
urgency and a desire to share information among individuals, as well as providing an inside
perspective of distant locations and making digital messages more personal. Social media

rest of the globe. Individuals can also broaden their knowledge by using social media.

some persons use social media just for fun and some are illegal reason. And persons who
such use social media are gen z and they are fund on communicating and a lot more
