Book excerpt: Abstract: The Internet and in particular social media applications such as Facebook, YouTube and many others, are obviously “overtaking the world” and could be regarded as “a global consumer phenomenon” (Camilia, Ibrahim, & Dalhatu, 2013) . Social media usage is one of the most common activities among children, adolescents, and emerging adults nowadays. It offers today’s youth a portal for entertainment and communication and it is becoming one of the main platforms for accessing information and news. This aggressive adoption of social media among the younger generation could be attributed to their up to date knowledge of and comfort with the latest technology and the convenient accessibility to these social networking tools (Vorderer, 2016). This study aims to shed the light on the social media effects on the academic performance of university students in Egypt and aims to clarify to different stakeholders the relationship between the social media usage and academic performance and to harness full potential of social media. This study examines the role of social media in students’ academic endeavors and ultimately their academic performance through their reported perceptions and reflections. It also examines factors that might influence the nature of this relationship, and its tentative impact on the academic performance of Nile University undergraduate students. An explanatory sequential mixed method approach is employed in order to get both quantitative and qualitative data, the responses of 442 Nile university undergraduate student were collected and were scored, coded and inserted into SPSS, and were analyzed using multiple statistical descriptive and inferential statistical tests based on the research question and the nature of the data to be analyzed using frequency tables, crosstabs, Anovas, post hocs and t-tests. The findings of the study explains the perception of Nile university students of social media effects on their academic performance, and to what extend do they use social media for academic related purposes, and it explores the effect of the different academic majors, academic statues and gender on the social media usage perception and usage. Significant differences in the behavior of students from different academic majors and different academic status in perceiving and using social media emerged which might require further investigation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The proliferation of social media dictates the need to take a profound and scientific look at the influence of it on individuals. This study investigated if there is a significant correlation between the purposes of use, time spent by students, motives and gratifications, and university students' academic performance. 971 responses were collected through an online survey using a convenience sample technique. This study found that participants use social media more for socialization and entertainment needs rather than academic needs and purposes. This study suggested a statistically significant correlation existed between time spent on social media and participants' entertainment purposes of use and their academic performance. A statistically significant correlation was not found between participants' socialization and academic purposes of use, instrumental and ritualistic motives, and students' GPA. The key factor that determines the possible impact of social media use is how much time a student spends on social media platforms.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research has shown since 2008 that social networking site (SNS) use comprises the majority of time spent on the Internet. The age distribution and large amount of time spent on SNSs evoke a new research era: How students use SNSs and how the uses of SNSs impact their academic performance. The main objective of the pilot study was to investigate the relationship between time spent on SNSs, frequency of SNS use, multitasking with SNSs, time spent studying, and Grade Point Average (GPA). In the first part, the cross-cultural differences between the United States (US; n = 444) and European college students (n = 346) were examined using path models. After examining the path models, a new survey was administered with additional items (with existing reliability and validity evidence). The purpose of the main study was to define new constructs using observed variables. These constructs were Facebook® addiction, multitasking with SNSs while studying, using SNSs for school work, the amount of time spent on SNSs, college self-efficacy, and academic performance. A structural equation model (SEM) was developed using the above constructs. SEM has many advantages compared to path analysis, and it was used to compare two countries: the US (n = 226) and Turkey (TR; n = 200). This exploratory investigation focused on the following main goals: (a) testing if Facebook® addiction and intensive SNS use impact academic performance, (b) identifying the variables that directly or indirectly impact SNS use and academic performance, (c) understanding the impact of Facebook® addiction on general SNS use and academic performance, (d) indicating relationships between the variables, and (e) probing the differences between university students from different cultures (i.e., the US and TR).

This book was released on 2023-01-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social Media with its ubiquitous presence has become an almost indispensable part of our lives. While it is inadvertently being used by students and teachers for various activities, there is very little research providing specific evidence of social media as educational scaffold along with its affordances and limitations. Although students seem to be using it for almost all of their daily life situations, there is again a dearth of evidence to indicate whether the students use it or are willing to use social media for educational purposes. In the competitive times of the higher secondary education and further, it is accepted that learning cannot be confined to the classrooms alone. The importance of learning scaffold has been long recognized by Vygotsky in Social Constructivism. Internet has added a digital dimension to it which Connectivism explains and is being continually explored with developing technologies.
Book Synopsis Social Networking and Academic Performance by : Tenzin Doleck
Download or read book Social Networking and Academic Performance written by Tenzin Doleck and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Students' use of technology and new media is of central interest to educational technology and psychology scholars. One of the most salient questions of students' technology use is the impact on academic performance. In this vein, recent scholarship has addressed the relationship between social networking sites (SNS) and academic performance. However, the findings suggest a lack of agreement on the nature of the relationship between SNS use and academic performance. Since the use of SNS have become ubiquitous, it is essential to understand their impact, especially on students' academic preparation and achievement. To address the gaps in the literature, this dissertation, composed of three empirical studies, examines the relationship between social networking and academic performance in a sample of pre-university science students. This research contributes to the literature by expanding the understanding of how students' social networking is linked to their academic performance. The dissertation concludes with a discussion of the implications as well as avenues for future research." --
