dc.description.abstract | The report provides an extensive overview on the negative effects of social media use in the case of student education. The popularity of the social networking sites has skyrocketed in the last few years. The primary reason behind this phenomenon is the heavy dependence of college and university students on these sites to get global access. Most often the negative effects of those social networking sites far outweigh the positive ones. These sites have caused some significant damage to today‟s young generation. The students are becoming the victims of these sites far often than anyone else. Students are spending way more time on social media than on face to face communication which is resulting in reduced social skills and making them vulnerable to several health problems. In the end, social media has become an inseparable part of students‟ lives and as a result, it is currently hampering student education in many different ways. As a result, I have decided to do a report on “the negative effects of social media use in the case of student education” in order to discover the severity of this issue in today‟s context and get a brief idea on just how many students are being affected by this problem.
The entire report is divided into five parts: introduction, literature review, research methodology, results and discussion and conclusion & recommendations. Starting with the introduction, first of all, we will be stating a brief introduction followed by a brief discussion on the background of the study, problem statement and rational of the report. Secondly, we discuss other relevant literature, theoretical framework of the report, research questions and hypothesis. Thirdly, we talk about the research method for the report, sample selection and data collection and analysis resulting from the report. Then we begin stating the demographic information used in this report and also the factor analysis. Finally, we end up with conclusion along with recommendations. | en_US |
