The Impact of Social Media use on UG students Academic Achievement

Abstract

Over the last few decades, social media use has grown significantly. Due to its expansion, it has become highly popular for UG students to communicate with one another. These social media platforms can be a useful way for kids to communicate with their teachers and one another. But excessive social media use can harm students' academic performance and cast doubt on this practice. By surveying UG students, this study examines the advantages and disadvantages of social media use on academic achievement. The poll looked at which social network UG students use the most and which is best for their academic abilities. There were 120 replies to the survey, and descriptive data demonstrate the correlation between the student's academic achievement and the number of hours spent on social media sites. This study's findings may help develop a practical strategy for raising students' academic performance through better use of social media platforms.
