According to the author, technology is among the most significant interventional for

humans, especially in easing communication and promoting learning resource access for students.

The classes have also been changed by technology where it is impossible to hold modern class

activities without technological availability. Therefore, the authors agree that technology has

changed both classroom experiences and the perception of reality by the learners. Learning

experiences have also been facilitated by technology, where learners can get new information in

ways that have promoted academic excellence. The study showed that technology, especially

remote learning, e-books, blended learning, augmented technology, social media, and gamification,

was significant in promoting postgraduate learners' learning.

The study is credible since it was published at Kandahar University in Afghanistan.

University institutions normally peer-review studies and check for correct citations and plagiarism

before approval of a research study. Additionally, the author has cited all the sources to credit the ODaniel 2

relevant authors. This study will be significant to my research since it analyzes the positive impacts

of technology in the learning environment. From the study, we understand that technology has

introduced new ways for learners to associate with class content. However, there is a gap in

whether learning in the classroom is usually impacted by the technology that my study will fill.

The author indicates that technology has played a pivotal role in promoting academic

research and students' learning abilities. However, although technology has played a positive role

in education, certain negative aspects are problematic. Additionally, the adverse effects of

technology are individualized; examples include the addiction to the internet and overuse of

technology for activities other than classwork. The authors also agree technology has led to

cyberbullying, learners accessing pornography, and online gambling, which affects both the mental

and financial aspects of the learner, thus lowering their academic performance. Additionally,

higher education students have often been accused of plagiarism due to internet libraries.

This study was posted to Taylor and Francis's website, which is a credible source for

journals and research articles that undergo a rigorous peer review process, thus ensuring the

article's quality is top-notch. The study relates to my research since I seek to understand how

technology adversely affects learners and may lower their academic performance. The author

introduces concepts like internet overuse, learner's access to pornography, plagiarism of

postgraduate students, etc. therefore, we will understand that despite the positive impacts of the ODaniel 3

internet, some individualized negative impacts may adversely affect the student's academic life. It

will also help us to understand how parents and teachers can regulate internet access for learners.

According to the author, technology has brought various positive impacts on learners, thus

promoting academic excellence. Consequently, most teachers and educators have argued that

learners are spending more time on the internet and not learning. Additionally, they acknowledge

that most learners are addicted to technology. Additionally, although teachers can prevent learners

from the negative impacts, such as playing games every time on the internet, they cannot take the

learner's minds away from the games. In China, teachers have taken numerous measures to

eliminate addiction; for example, some learners are forced to stay away from their computers.

However, total elimination from using a computer is not possible in the 21 st

century; therefore, it is

essential to guide learners on the best practices when using the computer in providing well-defined

tasks and guiding them on the best internet games to prevent addiction.

It is a credible study under the Workshop on Education Technology and Computer Science

that seeks to understand methods to be used to improve technology and solve the negatives. The

study will be significant in my research to understand how to solve learners' addiction to the

internet. The author suggests that prohibiting learners from using computers is insufficient and may ODaniel 4

worsen the situation. Therefore, it is essential to appropriately guide the learners on the best use

where teachers routinely check students' activities over the internet.

impact on the students." International Journal on Recent and Innovation Trends in

Computing and Communication 4.1 (2016): 281-285.

https://www.academia.edu/download/54359261/Negative_impact_2.pdf

The authors recognize that over the years, technology has improved drastically, changing

the types and levels of experiences most learners get. Through social media, people can actively

communicate and share ideas, which has significantly opened up the world. Social media has

opened people's access to educational, political, and financial information. On the other hand,

social media has introduced addiction, where people continuously need to know what is happening

over the internet, which is why they concentrate more on their Twitter, Facebook, and WhatsApp

notifications and communication. Additionally, physical meetings and the creation of friendships

have changed, and we rely on social media. Therefore, addiction to social media lowers the

learner's academic performance in the educational sector.

The study was posted in International Journal on Recent and Innovation Trends in

Computing and Communication, which generally receive scientific and peer-reviewed studies

relating to a network application. BBA department tutors also supervise the authors. The journal

will be significant in my study since it helps me understand both social media's positive and

negative impacts on both learners and society. The authors recognize that although social media

has eased communication and access to information, there is more internet addiction, and people ODaniel 5

are more interested in the notification from their social media accounts. Therefore, we will

understand how the addiction occurs and how to control it for the learners.

The authors agree that technology plays a significant role in human lives today; without

technological development in a country, there would be no economic excellence. Additionally,

using technology for communication is more reliable, less time-consuming, and more accessible.

In education, learners prefer technology since it promotes access to information and improves their

perception of reality. Therefore, learners are more prepared to handle work challenges. While some

adverse impacts of technology on the learners include, for learning institutions, it is expensive to

install and maintain technology; it may lead to time wastage, especially when preparing classroom

content, and some students, especially from low-income families, may not afford technological

devices which keeps them at a lower level than others.

The study is from the Journal of Applied and Advanced Research; this credible source

typically updates its site with multidisciplinary, peer-reviewed, and international journals to

promote research in a field and increase access to quality information to learners, experts, and

interested parties. The journal will be significant to my study since it introduces different

perspectives on technology's positive and negative impacts on learners. For example, we

understand that both learners and teachers are affected since it takes long hours to create content ODaniel 6

and deliver it to the learners. Additionally, learners from poor households will further be affected

since they cannot afford computers and internet access which limits the learning quality.

Demirbilek, Muhammet, and Tarik Talan. "The effect of social media multitasking on classroom

performance." Active Learning in Higher Education 19.2 (2018): 117-129.

https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/1469787417721382

The authors assess whether learning having portable devices during lectures affects their

academic performance. Most students typically use technological devices during lectures for short

messaging and accessing social media accounts. Therefore, this introduces multitasking, whether

learners listen to their tutors, take notes, or access their portable devices. Previous studies have

shown that learners continuously learn multitasking behavior, although it increases their

probability of getting distracted and reduces overall memory and performance in the classroom.

The study's results showed that engagement in social media during class activities was related to

poor cognitive performance and inability to process academic details, negatively impacting the

learners. The only positive impact was learner's creativity was increased during multitasking.

Active Learning in Higher Education is a credible resource that generally receives and

reviews academic sources to ensure the reliability and validity of the information. The study will

be significant to my research since it examines the negative impacts of technology on learners. It is

current research since we understand in most educational institutions, learners always have their

laptops and smartphones even during classroom teaching and learning. They use them for

notetaking and communication through social media and short messaging services. Therefore, we ODaniel 7

understand that constant multitasking during the class progress will affect the overall performance

of the learner and keep them distracted from the class activities.

people in 42 countries." Journal of Adolescent Health 66.6 (2020): S100-S108.

According to the study, social media has become an essential part of most young people's

lives since they can access new information seamlessly, communicate freely with others, and stay

in touch with their teachers, parents, and relatives. However, technology has been attributed to

adverse impacts like not being involved in community events and internet addiction. Additionally,

in social media, there is often no limit to whom one communicates with, and the type of content

shared. As a result, Cyberbullying, social withdrawal, and addiction have increased among youths.

Furthermore, social media affects the victim's mental and physical well-being; for example, their

self-esteem is drastically reduced, which can affect their academic performance. Additionally,

aggression from social media may be traumatizing, thus affecting learners' concentration and

perception of the world.

The Journal of Adolescent Health is a credible source whose articles and journals are

usually reviewed internally for validity, relevance, and validity. Unfortunately, over sixty percent

of journals are normally returned to authors for failing to meet robust regulations. The study will

be significant for my research since it analyzes the negative impacts of technology, especially

social media, on learners and society. The authors recognize that technology is an integral part of ODaniel 8

society, although it still has some negative impacts like cyberbullying and addiction that normally

affect the victims psychologically.
