A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF SELECTED STUDIES IN STUDENT PERFORMANCE PREDICTIONIJDKP
This document provides a summary and comparative analysis of 56 studies on predicting student performance published since the 1990s. It finds that while earlier studies used demographic and past academic performance data to predict college success, more recent studies incorporate additional data like online course activities. Most studies were conducted in undergraduate computer science and engineering courses. Prediction types have evolved from binary pass/fail outcomes to more granular predictions of specific grades. Continuous prediction of student progress is now possible using dynamic online data, whereas earlier studies only allowed one-time predictions. Overall predictors and prediction accuracy varied across studies due to different data, algorithms and disciplines, but studies using more data and parameters generally reported higher results.
The purpose of the Project is to examine the relationship between the use of information and communi¬cation technologies (ICT) and Learning in higher education. During the last two decades higher education institutions have invested heavily in information and communication technologies (ICT). ICT has had a major impact in the university context, in organization and in teaching and learning method. It is difficult and maybe even impossible to imagine future learning environments that are not supported, in one way or another, by Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). There is, in other words, a widespread belief that ICTs have an important role to play in changing and modernizing educational systems and ways of learning.
The impact of the ICT on learning can be approached in different ways. There is no single
concept of learning through the use of ICT. Many different types can be envisaged: computer assisted learning, web-learning, computer-classes, online training, distance education, eLearning, virtual learning, digital training, projector in classroom, microphone, use of Power point slide etc. Consequently, its impact on the learning process should encompass not only traditional learning outcomes but also the use of ICT by teachers (teacher training), the organizational use of ICT by education and training institutions, and, last but not least, the impact of ICT-enabled education on, for instance, personal development, confidence and self esteem.
The document discusses an investigation into how two marine invertebrates, the shore crab (Carcinus maenas) and lugworm (Arenicola marina), regulate their bodily fluid concentrations in response to varying salinity levels in seawater. The study found that C. maenas was able to maintain a constant internal osmolarity despite changes in external salinity, demonstrating it is an osmoregulator. In contrast, A. marina's internal osmolarity matched changes in external salinity, showing it is an osmoconformer. The results provide insight into the differing osmoregulatory abilities of marine invertebrates under changing environmental conditions.

How Technology Affect College Students
1.0 Introduction
It is a fact that we live in a high technology world with classrooms of high technology. Students now have the chance to enjoy the benefits of using iPads in classrooms, the opportunity to integrate tweets during presentations and the teachers also have the benefit of teaching students through the use of smart TVs. The use of internet facilitates communication internationally or even nationally and helps the students maintain close ties with family and friends most especially those leaving far away. In accordance to different researches, many college students use internet for interpersonal communication which is mostly through emails, instant messaging as well as chat programs (Gemmill & Peterson, 2006). The major benefits that are associated with the use of technology while teaching include increasing the interaction of students, adding diversity of the lessons and enabling the idea of bringing new knowledge and perspectives to the class. But despite the advantages that students may enjoy from the use of high technology, many other negative impacts may result as a result of using the technology inappropriately or over-usage. This essay majorly aims at evaluating the main benefits that students are likely to embrace when they use high technology in classes as well as negative impacts that may affect students learning and concentration in class. The essay also aims at evaluating the literature showing the studies that have earlier been conducted on the impacts of technology to college students. For teachers, students and parents to enjoythe best of the advancement in technology, they must be able to recognize their weaknesses and try and get rid of them ( DeLoatch, 2015).
Just like any other aspect, the advancement in technology has it benefits as well as its consequences. Many of college teens spend a significant portion of their time in screen and most especially computers and smartphones. Not all the time the teens spend on the computers or the smartphones goes to waste since it may also be beneficial to the student’s college experience. The student is able to learn about various technological devices as well as several uses before going to the college and thus the student is more prepared for the class. The best advantage of useof technology is the ability to connect with people both internationally and nationally but many students use internet just to fill all the time they have, neglect normal social interactions or even avoid other life responsibilities (Inoue, 2007). Other negative implications of technology to students may include loneliness, increased stress, disruption in paying attention in class, reduction in the grades attained, st.

Project-based learning
The fact that learning is achieved through a number of ways best explains why different methods are tested in order to know the best method that can be applied. Project-based learning is thought to be a solution used to improve students’ state assessment scores when relating to the Common Core State Standards especially in comprehending non-fiction text. However, this method has to be tested in order to be recommended.
Purpose of the study
This study is meant to get the best data collection tool that can be used in a research. Before making any decision on what learning and teaching method to be used in teaching non-fiction texts, it is important to understand how each method works and how it can be used to improve learning. In order to be sure about how a method works, one needs to experiment or collect data that will be used as a base for making conclusions (Eodice, Geller, & Lerner, 2017). The purpose of this study is thus to provide the best data collection tool to be used in getting information that can be used in making viable conclusions.
The research question is; Will the inclusion of project-based learning improve student application of comprehending non-fiction text at a high depth of knowledge level?
Data collection
The researcher will use a number of data collection tools in order to recommend this learning method. The data needed should be quantitative so as to give the researcher the way forward to make a decision. One of the data collection tools to be used is the pre-test and post-tests. This is a type of experiment that will use two groups; where one group is given a treatment while the other group is left to be the control group.
In this sort of experiment, the researcher will collect a random number of people from the community who can be able to read and write. The people will be divided into two groups, the test group, and the control group. The conditions for the test will be set and the treatment applied to the test group. The control group will not be given treatment and after a given period of time, the researcher will collect the results. The results will measure ow the treatment affected the group as differentiated by the control group. The result from the group will be recorded exactly depending on the number of people who participated and how the experiment affected each one of them. This can enable the researcher to know whether the method can be used to improve student assessment.
Another data collection tool that can be used is interviewing (Phillips & Stawarski, 2016). The researcher can organize for short and structured interviews. The interviews should have a given number of people and the result expected sh.

1) All of the computers purchased have been recorded in the accounting records.
2) The computers recorded as being purchased actually exist.
3) Depreciation expense has been calculated correctly
4) Laws and regulations regarding software usage have been followed (e.g., no pirated or illegal software is installed).
5) The computers are properly safeguarded from theft or unauthorized use.
Here is a helpful hint on how to go about responding to question 5.
For example let’s say you are asked to determine that the useful lives and salvage values of the computers are reasonable. A possible response would be to inquire about how the useful lives and salvage values of the computers were determined and then compare the estimated useful lives and salvage values of these computers with comparable computers used in other divisions or functional areas of the company.
Extra Credit – True/False (each question is worth 1 point)
1) Most frauds are detected by internal auditors.
2) Evidence from within the company is considered more reliable than evidence obtained from third parties
3) The internal auditor has no role in fraud prevention or detection
4) Confirmation involves examining trends and relationship among financial and non-financial data
5) Expertise within the internal auditing department is a barrier to implementing data analysis technologies

Re:Constructing 10 Strategic Points
Hello Elizabeth-
I am so glad that you worked on this over the weekend and sent it to me in advance. What you have done -- and this happens with a few students every class -- is propose an interesting future study on incivility in higher ed. However, the guidelines for this assignment limit the scope to a replication of the 2007 Clark and Springer study. This means that many of the elements of the 10 Strategic Points (e.g., problem statement, research questions, purpose statement, data colection, data analysis) should be exactly the same as the Week 2 strategic points except with a population of undergraduate psychology students and faculty.
For example, the correct phrasing of the Week 2 problem statement that I provided you was "It is not known what the possible causes and remedies are of incivility in nursing education in a university environment from both student and faculty perspectives." For the Week 5 assignment, you would use the problem statement verbatim but just change "nursing ed.
STUDENT ENGAGEMENT MONITORING IN ONLINE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT USING FACE DETEC...IRJET Journal
This document discusses a proposed system to monitor student engagement in online learning environments using face detection. The system would use face recognition and head pose estimation to authenticate that students are present and attentive during online lectures. Student engagement is important for learning outcomes, but more difficult to monitor online compared to in-person. The proposed system would collect data on attention, emotions, and activities to provide insights on class and student engagement levels. This could help instructors evaluate their teaching methods and identify students who may need extra support. The document outlines the implementation of this system using tools like the DAiSEE dataset for emotion detection and analyzing head pose to estimate attentiveness. It also provides examples of what the instructor dashboard and student interfaces may look like.
Discovering Student Dropout Prediction through Deep Learningijtsrd
There have been increased incidences of dropout that have been noticed in the universities in the recent years. These increased reports have been instrumental in introducing the graduation rate of the course completion rate for majority of universities all over the globe. Dropouts are highly undesirable and are an indication of some underlying inconsistencies that have been plaguing the course since a long time. Therefore, an effective system for the purpose of prediction of the dropout rate is the need of the hour. To reach these goals this research article has utilized machine learning approaches. The proposed methodology utilizes the K Nearest Neighbor, Fuzzy Artificial Neural Network and Decision Tree. This approach has been illustrated in utmost detail in this research article, highlighting the execution of the various important modules of the methodology. The experimentation has been performed to achieve the performance of the approach which has yielded highly accurate results.

The document discusses a study on students' perceptions and attitudes towards computer-assisted learning among Grade 11 students in Old Damulog National High School in the Philippines. It begins with an introduction that provides background information on computer-assisted learning and its benefits. It then states the objectives, significance and limitations of the study. The results and discussion section analyzes students' perceptions based on survey responses. It found that students strongly agreed that computers can increase their interest in learning and chances of future career opportunities, but were undecided on whether computers distract them or if they have enough skills to use computers. Overall, the study aimed to examine students' views of using technology to aid their education.
ASSESSMENT OF MOBILE LEARNING ACTIVITIES AMONG POST GRADUATE STUDENTSThiyagu K
Today the more and more rapid development of the ICT contributes to the increasing abilities of the mobile devices (cell phones, smart phones, PDAs, laptops) and wireless communications, which are the main parts of the mobile learning. On the other hand for the implementation of mobile learning it is necessary to use a corresponding system for the management of such type of education. Mobile learning through the use of wireless mobile technology allows anyone to access information and learning materials from anywhere and at anytime. As a result, learners have control of when they want to learn and from which location they want to learn. The main aim of the study is to assess the mobile learning activities among post graduate students in Viruudhunagar district. Survey method is employed for this study. The investigator has chosen 200 post graduate students for the study. Finally the investigator concludes; (a) There is no significant difference in mobile learning activities among the postgraduate students with respect to their course in terms (b) There is no significant difference in mobile learning activities among the postgraduate students with respect to their Father’s Educational Qualifications.

EFFECT OF SOCIAL MEDIA ON STUDENT’S ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE IN FEDERAL UNIVERSIT...JoshuaAlexMbaya
Social media is a web-based service that gives individual the opportunity to create either a public or semi-public profile within a bounded system, furthermore it’s add a list of others with which they share a connection, view their list of connections and those made within the system. Therefore, this study is aim at examining the impact of use of social networking on students’ academic performance in Federal University Gashua. In other to measure social media platforms a questionnaire was developed based on past literatures. The independent variables includes: time appropriateness, time duration, Nature of Usage and type of social networking, while the dependent variable is student CGPA. The sample of 130 students from Department of computer science was selected using convenient sampling method. The data collected was analyzed using description means python programming. Thus considering the abnormal use of Social networking platforms by students, it is expedient that Federal University Gashua educate their students to positively use these platforms for educational purposes which will eventually result in a positive impact on their academic performance.
This evaluation sought to determine the causes of student failure in the required freshman course Global Perspectives at Tualatin High School. Interviews with teachers found that attendance was the biggest factor, as higher absences correlated with lower grades and failure. Data also showed Hispanic students had disproportionately high failure rates, possibly due to lack of personal connection to the content. The purpose was to help teachers understand failure causes to avoid them, thereby promoting a successful transition to high school and future academic success. The evaluation would impact future Global Perspectives teachers, current and future students, and other freshman teachers by identifying at-risk profiles.
The document describes the Semantic Cognition in Language (SCiL) mobile application, which was developed to collect data on factors that may be related to dementia through questionnaires and cognitive tasks.

1. Abstract
Researchers function in a complex environment and carry multiple role responsibilities. This environment is prone to various distractions that can derail productivity and decrease efficiency. Effective time management allows researchers to maintain focus on their work, contributing to research productivity. Thus, improving time management skills is essential to developing and sustaining a successful program of research. This article presents time management strategies addressing behaviors surrounding time assessment, planning, and monitoring. Herein, the Western Journal of Nursing Research editorial board recommends strategies to enhance time management, including setting realistic goals, prioritizing, and optimizing planning. Involving a team, problem-solving barriers, and early management of potential distractions can facilitate maintaining focus on a research program. Continually evaluating the effectiveness of time management strategies allows researchers to identify areas of improvement and recognize progress.

2. This study describes the process of constructing proxy variables from recorded log data within a Learning Management System (LMS), which represents adult learners' time management strategies in an online course. Based on previous research, three variables of total login time, login frequency, and regularity of login interval were selected as candidates from the data set, along with a guideline for manipulating the log data. According to the results of multiple regression analysis, which was conducted to determine whether the suggested variables actually predict learning performance, (ir)regularity of the login interval was correlative with and predictive of learning performance. As indicated in the previous research, the regularity of learning is a strong indicator for explaining learners' consistent endeavors and awareness of learning. This study, which was primarily based on theoretical evidence, demonstrated the possibility of using learning analytics to address a learner's specific competence in an online learning environment. Implications for the learning analytics field seeking a pedagogical theory-driven approach are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] .

Accurate prediction and early identification of student at-risk of attrition are of high concern for higher educational institutions (HEIs). It is of a great importance not only to the students but also to the educational administrators and the institutions in the areas of improving academic quality and efficient utilisation of the available resources for effective intervention. However, despite the different frameworks and various models that researchers have used across institutions for predicting performance, only negligible success has been recorded in terms of accuracy, efficiency and reduction of student attrition. This has been attributed to the inadequate and selective use of variables for the predictive models. This paper presents a multi-dimensional and an integrated system framework that involves considerable learners’ input and engagement in predicting their academic performance and intervention in HEIs. The purpose and functionality of the framework are to produce a comprehensive, unbiased and efficient way of predicting student performance that its implementation is based upon multi-sources data and database system. It makes use of student demographic and learning management system (LMS) data from the institutional databases as well as the student psychosocial-personality (SPP) data from the survey collected from the student to predict performance. The proposed approach will be robust, generalizable, and possibly give a prediction at a higher level of accuracy that educational administrators can rely on for providing timely intervention to students. --

1) All of the computers purchased have been recorded in the accounting records.
2) The computers recorded as being purchased actually exist.
3) Depreciation expense has been calculated correctly
4) Laws and regulations regarding software usage have been followed (e.g., no pirated or illegal software is installed).
5) The computers are properly safeguarded from theft or unauthorized use.
Here is a helpful hint on how to go about responding to question 5.
For example let’s say you are asked to determine that the useful lives and salvage values of the computers are reasonable. A possible response would be to inquire about how the useful lives and salvage values of the computers were determined and then compare the estimated useful lives and salvage values of these computers with comparable computers used in other divisions or functional areas of the company.
Extra Credit – True/False (each question is worth 1 point)
1) Most frauds are detected by internal auditors.
2) Evidence from within the company is considered more reliable than evidence obtained from third parties
3) The internal auditor has no role in fraud prevention or detection
4) Confirmation involves examining trends and relationship among financial and non-financial data
5) Expertise within the internal auditing department is a barrier to implementing data analysis technologies

Re:Constructing 10 Strategic Points
Hello Elizabeth-
I am so glad that you worked on this over the weekend and sent it to me in advance. What you have done -- and this happens with a few students every class -- is propose an interesting future study on incivility in higher ed. However, the guidelines for this assignment limit the scope to a replication of the 2007 Clark and Springer study. This means that many of the elements of the 10 Strategic Points (e.g., problem statement, research questions, purpose statement, data colection, data analysis) should be exactly the same as the Week 2 strategic points except with a population of undergraduate psychology students and faculty.
For example, the correct phrasing of the Week 2 problem statement that I provided you was "It is not known what the possible causes and remedies are of incivility in nursing education in a university environment from both student and faculty perspectives." For the Week 5 assignment, you would use the problem statement verbatim but just change "nursing ed.
STUDENT ENGAGEMENT MONITORING IN ONLINE LEARNING ENVIRONMENT USING FACE DETEC...IRJET Journal
This document discusses a proposed system to monitor student engagement in online learning environments using face detection. The system would use face recognition and head pose estimation to authenticate that students are present and attentive during online lectures. Student engagement is important for learning outcomes, but more difficult to monitor online compared to in-person. The proposed system would collect data on attention, emotions, and activities to provide insights on class and student engagement levels. This could help instructors evaluate their teaching methods and identify students who may need extra support. The document outlines the implementation of this system using tools like the DAiSEE dataset for emotion detection and analyzing head pose to estimate attentiveness. It also provides examples of what the instructor dashboard and student interfaces may look like.
Discovering Student Dropout Prediction through Deep Learningijtsrd
There have been increased incidences of dropout that have been noticed in the universities in the recent years. These increased reports have been instrumental in introducing the graduation rate of the course completion rate for majority of universities all over the globe. Dropouts are highly undesirable and are an indication of some underlying inconsistencies that have been plaguing the course since a long time. Therefore, an effective system for the purpose of prediction of the dropout rate is the need of the hour. To reach these goals this research article has utilized machine learning approaches. The proposed methodology utilizes the K Nearest Neighbor, Fuzzy Artificial Neural Network and Decision Tree. This approach has been illustrated in utmost detail in this research article, highlighting the execution of the various important modules of the methodology. The experimentation has been performed to achieve the performance of the approach which has yielded highly accurate results.

EFFECT OF SOCIAL MEDIA ON STUDENT’S ACADEMIC PERFORMANCE IN FEDERAL UNIVERSIT...JoshuaAlexMbaya
Social media is a web-based service that gives individual the opportunity to create either a public or semi-public profile within a bounded system, furthermore it’s add a list of others with which they share a connection, view their list of connections and those made within the system. Therefore, this study is aim at examining the impact of use of social networking on students’ academic performance in Federal University Gashua. In other to measure social media platforms a questionnaire was developed based on past literatures. The independent variables includes: time appropriateness, time duration, Nature of Usage and type of social networking, while the dependent variable is student CGPA. The sample of 130 students from Department of computer science was selected using convenient sampling method. The data collected was analyzed using description means python programming. Thus considering the abnormal use of Social networking platforms by students, it is expedient that Federal University Gashua educate their students to positively use these platforms for educational purposes which will eventually result in a positive impact on their academic performance.
This evaluation sought to determine the causes of student failure in the required freshman course Global Perspectives at Tualatin High School. Interviews with teachers found that attendance was the biggest factor, as higher absences correlated with lower grades and failure. Data also showed Hispanic students had disproportionately high failure rates, possibly due to lack of personal connection to the content. The purpose was to help teachers understand failure causes to avoid them, thereby promoting a successful transition to high school and future academic success. The evaluation would impact future Global Perspectives teachers, current and future students, and other freshman teachers by identifying at-risk profiles.

2. This study describes the process of constructing proxy variables from recorded log data within a Learning Management System (LMS), which represents adult learners' time management strategies in an online course. Based on previous research, three variables of total login time, login frequency, and regularity of login interval were selected as candidates from the data set, along with a guideline for manipulating the log data. According to the results of multiple regression analysis, which was conducted to determine whether the suggested variables actually predict learning performance, (ir)regularity of the login interval was correlative with and predictive of learning performance. As indicated in the previous research, the regularity of learning is a strong indicator for explaining learners' consistent endeavors and awareness of learning. This study, which was primarily based on theoretical evidence, demonstrated the possibility of using learning analytics to address a learner's specific competence in an online learning environment. Implications for the learning analytics field seeking a pedagogical theory-driven approach are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] .

Accurate prediction and early identification of student at-risk of attrition are of high concern for higher educational institutions (HEIs). It is of a great importance not only to the students but also to the educational administrators and the institutions in the areas of improving academic quality and efficient utilisation of the available resources for effective intervention. However, despite the different frameworks and various models that researchers have used across institutions for predicting performance, only negligible success has been recorded in terms of accuracy, efficiency and reduction of student attrition. This has been attributed to the inadequate and selective use of variables for the predictive models. This paper presents a multi-dimensional and an integrated system framework that involves considerable learners’ input and engagement in predicting their academic performance and intervention in HEIs. The purpose and functionality of the framework are to produce a comprehensive, unbiased and efficient way of predicting student performance that its implementation is based upon multi-sources data and database system. It makes use of student demographic and learning management system (LMS) data from the institutional databases as well as the student psychosocial-personality (SPP) data from the survey collected from the student to predict performance. The proposed approach will be robust, generalizable, and possibly give a prediction at a higher level of accuracy that educational administrators can rely on for providing timely intervention to students. --

Abstract
This study explores the relationship between screen time and academic performance among third
and fourth-year students at Cal State LA. Using a SurveyMonkey questionnaire, we collected
data on daily screen usage and its impact on student productivity and GPA. Results indicate that
higher screen time correlates with lower academic success, particularly among students
frequently engaging with social media. The study suggests implementing strategies to manage
screen use could enhance educational outcomes.
2. 1 Introduction
Our study focuses on the implications of screen time on the academic success of Cal State LA's
third and fourth-year students. Given the increasing integration of digital devices into daily life
and their potential impacts on student productivity and well-being, this research aims to quantify
the relationship between screen time and academic performance. Previous research has identified
links between excessive screen usage and various negative outcomes, making this a key area for
investigation. This paper will explore these dynamics using data collected from students at Cal
State LA, providing insights into how screen time could be influencing their academic
achievements.
2 Methods
2.1 Descriptive Statistical Method
Data Collection: We utilized an anonymous online survey distributed through SurveyMonkey
to gather data from Cal State LA's third and fourth-year students. The survey included questions
about daily screen time usage and academic performance, aiming to collect quantitative data
directly from the participants.
Variable Creation: The key variables in our analysis were 'Screen Time' and 'GPA'. Screen
time was measured in hours per day, as reported by the students. GPA data was self-reported by
participants in the survey.
Analytic Methods: We employed descriptive statistics to understand the distribution and
central tendencies of screen time and GPA. Boxplots were used to illustrate the differences in GPA
across distinct levels of screen time and demographic variables like gender and class standing. We
also used correlation analyses to assess the impact of screen time on GPA, providing a statistical
basis for understanding the relationship between these variables.
3. 2.2 Regression Method
1. Regression Analysis: The study also employed linear regression to explore how various
predictors such as gender, major, and type of app usage influence screen time. The dependent
variable was screen time, and the model aimed to establish relationships with these independent
variables to provide insights into factors that might affect screen time among students.
3 Results
3.1 Descriptive statistics
1. Descriptive Statistics: It was found that the average daily screen time among 3rd and
4th-year CSULA students is approximately 4.65 hours, with a standard deviation of about
2.38 hours. The minimum reported screen time was 1.5 hours, and the maximum was
10.5 hours.

Table 1 summarizes our survey results, showing the midpoints of our data and how spread out
our data values are.
Table 2. Daily Average- Spent on Screentime
4. The line graph in Table 2 displays the hours spent by Cal state LA students on the screen per
day.
3.2 Inferential statistics
Figure 1. Hypothesis Testing Graph
Hypothesis Testing:
In Figure 1, we tested the hypothesis that the average daily screen time among students is 5
hours. The null hypothesis (H0)) stated that the mean screen time is 5 hours (mu = 5 )), while
the alternative hypothesis ((HA ) proposed that the mean differs from 5 hours (mu =/= 5). Using
a sample mean of 4.62 hours and a standard deviation of 2.27 hours, we calculated a T-statistic
of -0.6097. The resulting p-value was 0.5534, which is greater than the significance level of 0.05,
5. indicating no statistical evidence to reject the null hypothesis. Thus, we conclude that the average
screen time is not significantly different from 5 hours per day.
Regression Analysis:
To explore the factors influencing screen time, we conducted a linear regression analysis with
screen time as the dependent variable. The independent variables included gender, major, and
types of app usage. The regression model aimed to identify significant predictors and understand
their impact on screen time. The analysis provided insights into how distinct factors are
associated with variations in screen time among students.
Results Summary:
Mean Daily Screen Time: 4.65 hours
Standard Deviation: 2.38 hours
Minimum Screen Time: 1.5 hours
Maximum Screen Time: 10.5 hours
Sample Size: 13 data points
95% Confidence Interval: 3.22 to 6.09 hours
Key Findings:
The majority of students' screen time is spent on social networking apps like TikTok and
Instagram. There is significant variation in screen time, with some students using their phones
for up to 10.5 hours daily. Business Administration students are the largest demographic in the
study.
4 Conclusion
Our objective was to examine the impact of screen time on the academic success of third and
fourth-year students at Cal State LA. Through our analyses, we found that higher screen time
6. generally correlates with lower academic performance, specifically lower GPAs among students
who spend more hours on their devices daily. This finding aligns with our initial hypothesis that
excessive screen time can negatively affect academic outcomes.
However, our study has some limitations. The data was self-reported, which may introduce bias
or inaccuracies in the students' responses regarding their screen time and GPA. Additionally, our
sample size was limited, and the study focused only on one university, which may affect the
generalizability of our findings. Future research could expand the sample size, include multiple
universities, and employ more precise data collection methods to validate and extend our
findings.
In conclusion, our study highlights a significant association between screen time and academic
