The Problem and Its Background
Introduction
up an online profile, describing his/her interests”. It has been set to have both a negative
and positive effect on society. The media seems to control the way people are and how
they interact with others. Social networking gives individuals the ability to feel free and
open about things. Social networking has greatly impacted society, especially when it
comes down to common sites such as Facebook, my space , or even twitter. Although
Social networking can have a positive impact on society, it mostly has a negative impact
on society. The social networking sites websites make it so that way people can easily
interact with the people around them whether it be people they know or people they
don’t . your cellphone might not always work so a lot of people turn to others, means of
communication, which is where people social networking sites comes into play. Sites
such as Facebook, my space, and twitter give people the opportunity to communicate
with other individuals. These sites are also used for social events that you may want
people to attend.

Background of the study
Social networking websites or the so called SNS is an online service for people
who want social relations to other around the world. The netizens or the people who
used the internet use SNS for communication to others by means of e-mail or instant
message using their own account. SNS are widely used nowadays in our developing
country. Most SNS are to provide interactions of different people who share the same
According to Miles Walker, “Social networking site is aid to have begun in 1978
with bulletin board system or BBS. BBS was required to connect in modem of that
computer and can exchange information through telephone pole and was the very first
system that allows users to sign in and interact with other people but it is slow since
only one user can log at a time’. The SNS system started very slow, long time ago with
the usage of telephone pole to connect to others. When they use the telephone for
calling, the internet dies out. They can’t use both at the same time so it’s quite
troublesome in the late years. The very first version of instant messaging came about
1988 with inetrelay chat or IRC, a unix –based limiting access to most people that was
used or link and file sharing and generally keeping in touch with one another. Using an
instant messaging helps conserve time since in the late years most of the people use
Our research study “The effects of social networking site to the academic performance of
students” tried to answer the question “What will happen to the academic performance of student with
their habitual interaction to SNS?” The research study of Nayzabekov (2012) claimed that SNS will
affect it in a bad way, with the statement, “the idea of multitasking which could perform different years
of action while visiting SNS would affect the concentration of students, because for example a student
has a lot of assignments and works on different subjects instead of doing it on time and
early, he/she visits first the SNS.” According to this statement, SNS will affect the concentration of a
student that we presume would lead to the bending of focus of student from studying to
usage of SNS. This is supported by the statement of Ellis and Knaus which sees it as, “a failure to
initiate or complete a task or activity by determined time.” In other words, he sees SNS-related activities
as nonacademic activities that will result in postponing the completion of academic task.

Hypothesis
This study purposes to answer “ what are the effects of social networking
Christian Academy ? “ SNS has become viral in the society and even the world .
this has become teenagers’ way of killing boredom . our system for school has
been. Worsening because there are many students or teenagers that are starting to
lose focus on their studies . their tardiness is one of the reasons. Many students
are saying that they are tired , they lack sleep and even start sleeping in class
social networking sites (SNS) could be the culprit . hence , this study was
interrupted on their studies. As a matter of fact, SNS has a dual face that can bring to the students. It
has advantages and disadvantages for its users. Nowadays, parents prioritize their children in
terms of different aspects, particularly on their studies. Because of this, this study aims to help
them parents be aware on the possible effects that SNS could give to their children. This study would
give the parents knowledge on the probable academic failure of their children
students as a result of constant interaction with it. Moreover, this study is also targeted to
benefit other researchers or people who need facts and information about this topic. This study is also
seen to be beneficial to the students. Furthermore, this study could give a probable explanation to the
teachers who surmise why their students' academic excellence are changing. Since this study focuses on
the effects of SNS on the students, it could also help DEPED to create a better system for the students
This study investigates the effects of social networking websites in the study of students.
The study includes what social networking sites they visit. Furthermore, in this study it also contained
the aspects social networking sites (SNSs) have to encourage users to visit. This study also wrote about
the disadvantages and advantages of SNS in the academic excellence of the students. Besides, this study
would discuss if social networking sites affects the academic performance of the students. However, the
study would not cover their financial status like if they use money for several purposes. It will not also
include the effects of such websites to the emotional aspect of the students. Aside from that, the study
would not include how teenagers or students used social networking sites.

The Review of Related Literature and Studies
Foreign Literature
Since their emergence in 2005, Web 2.0 technologies have been advanced as
learning in particular. Web 2.0 technologies are presenting new opportunities for
participation and feedback between students, their peer groups and teachers. This article
examines one of the most significant Web 2.0 tools, Social Networking Sites (SNS), and
ethnographic approach adopted in the paper indicate that: SNSs can be used by
language learners to explore new relationships rather than merely maintain existing ones
and that longitudinal studies are required to achieve a better understanding of the
maintenance.

Foreign Studies
As social networking sites have risen in popularity over the past years, people
have been spending an excessive amount of time on the Internet in general and social
networking sites in specific. This has led researchers to debate the establishment of
Internet addiction as an actual clinical disorder. Social networking can also affect the

sense of connection that ultimately increases loneliness in people who feel alone”. John
can foster feelings of sensitivity to disconnection, which can lead to loneliness.[116] Fabio
Sabatini and Francesco Sarracino found that if an individual tends to trust people and
their own well-being as relatively high. The researchers found that online social
networking plays a positive role in subjective well-being when the networking is used to
facilitate physical interactions, but networking activities that do not facilitate face-to-face
interactions tend to erode trust, and this erosion can then negatively affect subjective
well-being (independent of the online social interaction itself). Sabatini and Sarracino

businessman and other members of the society. Social networks has different features
that may enjoy by the people all around the world what the problem is, people loses
their self-control in using them. Facebook is the most popular social networking site
today wherein people may share and upload videos, pictures, messages and chat. Twitter
is also famous to every people nowadays wherein people can share their feelings,
thoughts and ideas. Through twitter, they can easily be connected to their favorite
celebrities and they can also be updated on what is trend all around the world. Aside from
these two, Tumbler, MySpace, and Bring also became a raging craze to everyone. Social
networking communities will definitely stay due to its millions of users. In addition,
students today stay on these accessibilities of information they may get in social
networks. Social network may help them in giving knowledge in thesis and journals but
still negative effects of this still over weighs especially about losing their self-control.
Social networks bring a big benefit about communication because through this we can
easily communicate our love dones despite of the geographic distance. Social network
may also help celebrities to be more contact to their fans because through these sites they
can easily post what are the recent happenings about them. Through social networks we
can be updated in every happening not just in celebrities but also the recent updates to
our country and also in the whole world. Social networking sites can be a good way to
make connections with people who has similar interests and goals.

Social networkers in the Philippines also showed the highest level of engagement
on social networking sites averaging 5.5 hours per visitor in February, with visitors
frequenting the social networking category an average of 26 times during the month," the
comScore statement said citing its latest report on social networking activity in the
region. Strong engagement was also exhibited by Internet users in Indonesia (5.4 hours
per visitor and 22 visits per visitor), Australia (3.8 hours per visitor and 20 visits per
visitor) and Malaysia (nearly 3.8 hours per visitor and 22 visits per visitor)," the
statement added.On average, 50.8 % of the total online population in the region visited a

Social media is clearly becoming the new normal. For the last several years,
simply adding the word "social" in front of anything and everything from media and
gaming to commerce and CRM to business and consumerism, it's clear that we are finally
approaching the end of the hype curve to start making sense of what it all means and just
But as social media becomes part of our cultural fabric and even as we witness
communication efforts today, much of what we see is merely the beginning of something
that will one day become something far more important than the medium itself.
