Sure, if you’re studying the effects of social media, you’ll have to go on it. That’s not what we’re talking about though. Kids aren’t needing to communicate through social media with other “researchers” at school. Not sure why you’re equating school children to scientist doing actual first hand research, school projects are almost always second hand information, from the research papers, even if they’re about social media.
But let’s not kid ourselves, 99% of what students used YouTube for was timewasting. I didn’t like it when I was at school but I recognise blocking YouTube was easier than monitoring every kids computers at school to make sure they’re working.
They’re meant to be using link aggregators like Google Scholar to find papers, not Facebook. Definitely not TikTok.
And idk what it’s like in your country but the vast majority of research for school here was done at home for homework, where you can watch all the “lectures” you want. Kids just look at dumb shit when they’re at school so they don’t have to work. They also don’t have time to be watching hour long lectures in class. You really don’t need access to social media sites at school.
Imagine thinking I’m on a high horse because I understand kids like wasting time. Give me one good reason someone would need to use TikTok for school purposes. XD
Not sure why you’re insisting on schoolkids when the article is specifically about state university. RTFA.

Thank you for clarifying you’re not part of the group you’re speaking for. Next time, preface your replies with “I didn’t read the article and I also have no experience in the subject matter, but I think my opinion is very important because it aligns with the government.” That will make it easier to separate the wheat from the chaff.
And idk what it’s like in your country
And apparently neither in yours. Go talk to a(nother) researcher and ask them if they could ever work properly if YouTube or Twitter were banned in their lab computers. Now extend that to reaearchers who specifically have a line of work that depends on TikTok. Then consider you might not know either what you’re talking about or how such work happens in practice. And finally RTFA.
But if you insist on focusing on school children who are not the subject matter here, I’ll have to accept that your expertise in high school trumps mine, I guess.
