Glass and plastics are not good conductors of electricity.
Plastic is a insulator.

Plastic?
Glass is a poor conductor of heat.
metals are better conductors of heat because they have free electrons.
Why is glass a good conductor of heat and ceramic is not a good conductor of heat?
Perhaps because the glass is in amorphous structure and ceramic is in crystalline structure. Glass is a better conductor of heat than ceramic is.
Plastic?
Glass has a higher conductivity than thin plastic but,it is still lower than metal so metal may be a better conductor
The better conductor is stainless steel.

Metal is a better conductor
No. Plastic is a bad conductor of heat as it does not have free electrons and metal are good conductor of heat as they have one or two free electrons in outer orbit.

A plastic cup holds more heat because plastic can't take out heat. Glass conducts heat away.
No, it is not. The best thermal conductor among the metals is silver, and it is the best electrical conductor as well. There is a general "rule" in the natural world that thermal and electrical conductivity are proportionate among metals; they "track" together. If a metal is a better thermal conductor than another metal, it will be a better electrical conductor as well. It should be noted that the best thermal conductor of all known materials is the allotrope of carbon we call diamond. Interestingly, diamond is an electrical insulator.
A glass cup will conduct heat away quickly - a plastic cup would hold heat the best.
