"The emergence of internet-based social media has made it possible, in terms of space,\r\ntime and frequency, to communicate with hundreds or even thousands of other people.\r\nThus, the impacts of learning through social media has been greatly magnified globally.\r\nAs such, social media is a hybrid element of learning mix between traditional and\r\nnontraditional sense. The content, timing and frequency of the social media-based\r\nlearning mode exhibits free flow of information and knowledge regardless of boundaries\r\nand time. This stands in contrast to the traditional integrated learning paradigm where a\r\nhigh degree of control persist. Thus, social media enriches learning and heighten career\r\nprospects. For instant, the web helps institutions to refocus from teaching to learning and\r\nfrom teacher to student. Current higher education need to respond : does it make\r\nlearning more accessible?, does it promote improved learning?, does it reduce per unit\r\ncosts of education?. The web provides educational opportunities at workplace,\r\ncommunity and home for those unable to attend college due to cultural, economic or\r\nsocial barriers. That is starting to change as educators have devise new ways to\r\ncapitalize on web-based technology. Studies shows, through webs and internet tools,\r\nworking adults relish the opportunities to pursue their studies and demonstrated similiar\r\nlevel of contacts and interactions as to regular classes. This paper intend to discuss\r\nfurther the success, contributions and ways of overcoming the cultural, economic and\r\nsocial barriers of higher education via the web. Deliberate on its implications as to\r\nlifestyle, career developments and the way forward of higher education in the future to\r\ncater for the working mass. (Abstract by authors)"^^ .
