Investigate the effects of using wechat on foreign students at hebei university

Nowadays WeChat app has quickly become an important social media among the people. It is a trustable source of social connectivity and exchange of ideas in the society. The main purpose of this article is to explore different outcomes of using WeChat among foreign students. It would cover both positive and negative impacts of WeChat usage among students. It is a quantitative study of the topic therefore we need to launch a survey for data collection. Total 45 international students were selected from Hebei University, Baoding, China. 42.2% male and 57.8% of the female students participated in the survey. The main finding of our survey is that most of these students had no clear idea about what exactly the positive and negative impacts of WeChat are on their life. Also there was no attempt to notify those effects too. Although most of the students were using WeChat for communication and messaging purposes, some of them use WeChat for exchanging information and sharing their knowledge with friends so it is possible for students to actively use WeChat for sharing their knowledge, experiences and information with classmates and profession related individuals by creating class groups and online discussion along with using WeChat for being in contact with close friends and family.
