| Description | ||||||
| This study investigates social media usage and its effects on the study habits of undergraduate students at National Management Degree College (NMDC), Myanmar. With the widespread adoption of platforms such as Facebook, Instagram, Telegram and YouTube, concerns arise regarding their potential impacts on academic performance. The research objectives include describing social media usage in Myanmar, analyzing its effects on students’ study habits, and evaluating the relationship between social media use and academic performance measured by GPA. Employing a quantitative, descriptive research method, primary data was gathered through structured questionnaires from 287 undergraduate respondents of NMDC and secondary data was acquired from relevant sources. Key findings reveal Telegram, Facebook and YouTube as the most used platforms among students, primarily for academic collaboration, communication, and accessing educational resources. However, extensive social media use correlates with increased distraction, procrastination, and decreased academic productivity, negatively impacting GPA. The study underscores the necessity for strategic interventions to promote balanced social media use, enhancing positive educational outcomes while mitigating associated risks. |
