It allows an individual to send information to website, have access to it and comment on it either added to it or put a comment.
    DO YOU FEEL IT CAN CONTRIBUTE S TO THE ENRICHMENT OF INSTRUCTION?
    Having defined UGC as a material on website and other media, it is apposite to know that it contribute to the enrichment of instruction.
    Firstly, when lecturer or instructor wants to pass across a piece of information to the student, he can do so by pasting such information on the internet. However, the teacher/lecture can allow the student to search for additional information on the internet added to the one given in the classroom. He can well publish the course material on the internet and ask them (student) to have access to it. Consequently, user generated content makes the work easier for the teacher and learn at their own pace and their own convenient time.
    In conclusion, UGC contributed to the enrichment of instruction in school system base on the fact that it serves as a means by which the learner and teacher have access to learning without problem.
