Study Of The Impact Of Social Media On College Going Students
Keywords:
Social Media, TechnologyAbstract
The definition of social media is "the inter-personal network connections." The internet world has evolved significantly in the past 10 years. With the advent of social media, young men and women are increasingly exchanging thoughts, emotions, personal information, photos and videos at an incredible pace. 73% of wired American teenagers currently use social networking sites Social networking sites promote bad habits such as procrastination (catching up pals) for adolescent students and are more prone to use drinks. This may seem like a waste of time at first sight, but it also supports kids to acquire essential knowledge and social skills, as well as engaged citizens who produce and share information. At now many students use these sites on a regular basis, whether social media is advantageous or unfavourable. As social networking sites continue to increase in popularity, we believe that technology is a key component of today's successful student equation. Many parents fear that their university kids spend too much time and less time studying on Facebook and other websites in social media. Our research thus determines the connection between social media and student efficiency.
