This study has been taken to investigate the use of Social Media for the digitalization of education. The use of integration of social media is more reachable than the initiative taken by the government of Bihar at secondary level. To test the interest of people in Bihar for using social media in education, an online survey through questionnaire using likert scale had been prepared by using Google forms and shared on Facebook, whatsapp and Telegram. For this very purpose, the analytical section of youtube studio had been used. The experimental research in the form of before and after without control design used for this research. The result is found better after using social media for the teaching-learning process than before without using Social Media for education. Consequently, it is found that the use of Social Media for the digitalization of education will be very effective.
