CHAPTER 1
THE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE
RATIONALE OF THE STUDY
The internet nowadays is becoming the biggest part of our daily lives. We can
collect information and at the same time it services as our entertainment and
communication. Social media is one of the internet-based form of communication.
Social media refers to the means of interactions among people in which they create,
share, and/or exchange information and ideas in virtual communities.
Today the internet has taken a firm place in people's lives. It is difficult to
imagine a young man who at least once a day did not check for news lines. The modern
reality requires us to stay in touch and updates us on the latest viral happenings,
especially trends. It is used to build relationships among people. With their help, we can
express ourselves and share our ideas to the world. During the line spent on social
media, youngsters go into different connections and get the chance to speak with a
relatively boundless number of individuals and community gathering, with a wide range
of identities, take in a considerable measure of stories, can trade suppositions and talk
about issues representative of the younger generation. The truth is that social media is
beneficial to society, but also has downsides.
Since it's a relatively new technology, there's little research to establish the long-
term consequences, good or bad, of social media use. However, multiple studies have
found a strong link between heavy social media and an increased risk for depression,

Fax: 255-1773

anxiety, loneliness, self-harm, and even suicidal thoughts. According to research by
EDUCAUSE, a non-profit organization, the typical student spends about half that
amount of time—between 1 and 2 hours—on social media (37% of respondents) and
streaming video (36% of respondents). About a third of students (32%) spend less than
1 hour per day on other online activities.
According to a report by the non-profit child advocacy group Common Sense
Media, one in five teens said social media makes them feel more confident, compared
with 4% who said it makes them feel less so. In the survey of more than 1,000 13 – 17-
year-olds, 28% said social networking made them feel more outgoing versus 5% who
said it made them feel less so; and 29% said it made them feel less shy versus the 3%
who said it made them feel more introverted. When it comes to relationships with
friends, more than half (52%) of teens said social media helped to improve relationships
versus just 4% who said it had a negative impact.
The researchers wish to conduct a study on what effects social media has in the
social attitude of a student. As previously stated above, social media is everywhere.
There are many people who are into social media, especially the youth, kids, students,
and young adults. For this reason, this research is carried out with the aim of measuring
the students’ attitudes towards using social media from the lenses of several attributes,
including gender, age, year of study, social media application, experience, and interest.
The population of this study is the Grade Twelve HUMSS students enrolled at ASIAN
COLLEGE OF TECHNOLOGY.

The benefits that you may get from this study is the awareness of how social
media may be influencing how we interact to other people. Aside from the known
negative effects of social media namely: addiction, poor sleep, eye fatigue, negative
body image, depression, anxiety, cyberbullying, and more. The research is conducted in
making people aware that using too much social media is harmful especially for kids
and teens because social media is distracting them, disrupting their sleep, and exposing
them to bullying, rumor spreading, unrealistic views of other people's lives and peer
pressure.

SCOPE AND DELIMITATIONS
This study focuses on Grade Twelve HUMSS Students on social media and their
social attitude. The data and information that we have gathered are from our student
survey in which the respondents are all Grade Twelve HUMSS students in Asian
College of Technology in the main campus. Nowadays, social media focuses on peer-
to-peer interactions, which enhances informal learning and experiences. Furthermore,
social media influences the majority of the students, who became psychologically
addicted to it. The result of this study is only applicable to the respondents and should
not be used on the other students which do not belong to this study.

Before going into the main variables of the study, the researchers discuss in
the first part what is the effect of social media on the social attitudes of the Grade
Twelve HUMSS students. In the second part, the researchers talk about the connection
of independent variables in this study such as the social media which involves
interactions in modern ways, sharing information, motivations, depressions, treats,
anxiety. These all variables were investigated to determine or to see if there are effects
of social media to the attitudes of the grade twelve students. In the last part of the
chapter, the researchers try to evaluate studies related to the topic of the study.
Interactions on social media, particularly because the majority of the students have
social media, and they use it to interact with others for variety of reasons.
On concept 1. Siddig, B. (2020) according to his statement, due to developments
in communication technology, people may now easily overcome time and space
limitations. As a result, people's capacity to communicate instantly with millions of other
people has risen and enhanced. These innovations could have a significant positive
impact on activities like education.Activities like distance learning, blended learning, and
even interactive education might be made significantly simpler and more effective. For
instance, in terms of education, the teaching of languages may benefit significantly from
the usage of social media. Instructors could assist students in developing higher
proficiency in language acquisition and usage through social media sites like Facebook,
WhatsApp, and YouTube. The social media platforms would enable learners to immerse
themselves in scenarios where they openly communicate with people who are more
proficient than them in the use of the language. From this research article, it is evident
Telephone: 238-2380, 238-2381, 238-2384
Fax: 255-1773

that social media can be applied to aid in the teaching of languages. Learners can
interact freely with native speakers of the language they seek to learn, and they could
also direct the process of learning themselves. These would be enabled through the
application of social media in the instruction process. Further, learners could also
immerse themselves in the culture associated with the language they seek to learn.
Consequently, the learners would increase their grasp and end up improving the
learning experience. Finally, social media may allow free interaction with native
speakers of a language. In this manner, the learners would be improving their diction
and pronunciation of the words and phrases; a fact that would greatly enhance the
learning process.
On concept 2. According to Sponcil, M. and Gitimu, P. (2013) This study looked
at how college students utilize social media and how that impacts their interactions with
others and their perceptions of themselves. Students participated in this study by
answering questions on their own use of social media, their ability to communicate with
friends and family, and how it affected their self-concept. The findings showed that
every college student in the sample had used at least one social networking website.
The use of social media and communication with family and friends had a.586 Pearson
association. The Pearson connection between using social media and one's self-
concept was.658. Future research on the factors contributing to the growth of these
social networking sites may be impacted by these findings.
On concept 3. According to Sawyer, R. and Chen, GM. (2012) They say that In
today's globalizing culture, social media has become an increasingly prominent part of
our daily lives. Regardless of the distance separating them, it offers an environment
where people from all over the world may interact, communicate, and share knowledge.
In order to be more suitable to handle the demands of a new cultural environment,
intercultural adaptation entails the process of fostering understanding through

Telephone: 238-2380, 238-2381, 238-2384
Fax: 255-1773

interaction. According to research, people frequently utilize social media to stay
connected to their home nations while adjusting and to better assimilate into the host
society. The purpose of this paper is to examine how social media usage affects the
process of intercultural adaption. An American university conducts in-depth interviews
with its international students. Future directions for research in this area are also
highlighted in light of the analyses' findings.
On concept 4. According to Yango A., P. Bermudo, and E. Quendangan (2019)
The purpose of this descriptive-correlational study was to determine how college
students' attitudes toward the internet as a communication medium influence their level
of English language utilisation in the classroom at the University of Perpetual Help
System Laguna-Philippines during the second semester of the academic year 2017-
2018. The fifty (50) college students who took Technical Writing and Philippine
Literature courses during the aforementioned term were the respondents.
The respondents were chosen using a simple random sampling technique by the
researcher. The findings revealed that there was no significant relationship between
students' attitudes toward the Internet as a communication medium and their level of
English language utilisation in the classroom, based on a p value of 0.211, which was
greater than the significance level of 0.05. This comprehensive study concludes that,
while there are many benefits, students have varying perceptions and attitudes toward
this modern process of learning that uses the internet as a communication medium.
Similarly, teachers play a significant role in enticing students' attention to maximise the
use of English language in the classroom, which can be obtained by creating interest
among them through the use of media platforms, particularly the Internet, which is
nowadays undeniably inseparable from English language teaching and learning.
On concept 5. Gagalang, J. L. (2022) According to him, the widespread use of
social media has provided learners with numerous reading opportunities. However,
Telephone: 238-2380, 238-2381, 238-2384
Fax: 255-1773

educators are increasingly concerned that excessive social media use jeopardises
students' reading competence and, eventually, academic performance. The current
study sought to determine the extent to which social media use influences university
students' (N=101) reading attitudes and competence, which serve as the foundation of
academic performance. The study employed a mixed-methods approach. The collected
data were analysed with the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) software
version 26. The interview responses were analysed qualitatively. According to the
findings, social media platforms (SMPs) were the least used for educational purposes.
Students demonstrated positive reading attitudes, emphasising their importance of
reading and their joy in learning new things. However, because they read posts on a
daily basis, they had a lower proclivity for productive reading attitudes such as making
time to read during downtime, being enthusiastic about advanced reading, and reading
with friends. Overall, reading ability indicated incompetence. This research looks at the
role of social media in shaping learners' reading attitudes and influencing their level of
reading competence.
Related Studies
This study is conducted to determine the involvement of social media towards
the social attitude of Grade Twelve HUMSS students. There have been many studies
that examined the social attitude of senior high school students on social media. Many
of the studies were conducted using Senior high school and undergraduate college
students.
One study was conducted by Kaya, T. and H. Bicen (2016) stated in their paper
"The effects of social media on students' behaviours; Facebook as a case study" at
Ataturk Faculty of Education, Near East University, North Cyprus, Via Mersin 10, Turkey
that social networks are one of the most commonly used communication methods in
today's world. Their use in different fields has been examined in several research
Telephone: 238-2380, 238-2381, 238-2384
Fax: 255-1773

studies. This study aims to examine the effects of social media on student's behaviours
which will mainly focus on Facebook. It will also be determined whether there is a
positive relationship between confidence, social media participation, and social media-
related behaviours when using Facebook. A general scanning model was used to
observe high school students' attitudes in order to collect primary data. 362 high school
students from grades 9 to 12 were chosen as participants. According to the findings,
Facebook is used for communication, entertainment, and the sharing of news, pictures,
and songs. Furthermore, their Facebook profile picture is alone, and students were
aware that swearing is a form of misconduct, which is a positive sign. According to the
study, students were aware of the importance of protecting their social identity because
their Facebook shares are not public. They also respect privacy by not using their
friends' Facebook accounts.
Other researchers would include Mahadi, SR., Jamaludin, NN., Johari, R.,
and Fuad, INFM. (2016) at University Technology MARA, Seri Iskandar Campus, 32610
Perak, Malaysia entitled "The Impact of Social Media among Undergraduate Students:
Attitude" stated on this paper aims to study the impact of social media on the attitude of
art students from the Art and Design Faculty at University Technology Mara, Perak
campus. The research employs both qualitative and quantitative methods. A sample of
120 students was drawn at random from five departments (Fine Art, Graphic Design,
Fashion, Ceramics, and Photography) to respond to the questionnaire, and five
students were interviewed. The finding was analyzed based on the data extracted from
the questionnaire and oral interview responses. The results reveal that most students
are actively involved in social media and they realized the impact of social media in their
daily life as well as their attitude.
Another study conducted by Bolton, R., Parasuraman, A., Hoefnagels, A.,
Migchels, N., Kabadayi, S., Gruber, T., Loureiro, YK., and Solnet, D., (2013) The use
Telephone: 238-2380, 238-2381, 238-2384
Fax: 255-1773

of social media by Generation Y, according to this statement, raises more questions
than it does answers. It: focuses primarily on the United States and/or (at most) one
other country, ignoring other regions with large and rapidly growing Generation Y
populations where social media use and its determinants may differ significantly; studies
students whose behaviours may change across life cycle stages; relies on selfreports
by different age groups to infer Generation Y's social media use; and does not
investigate the drivers and outcomes of social media use.
R. Kulidtod (2017) conducted research on the effects of social networking media on
academic performance of students at the University of Southern Mindanao in the
Philippines. The study of social networking media has been the primary means of
communication between people all over the world, hence the term "cyber-world." This
includes, among other things, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace, Instagram, Flicker,
Frienster, Blogs, Podcasts, Youtube, Tumblr, and Skype. Cell phones, tablets, laptops,
desktop computers, and e-readers were among the technological devices used by users
of these forms of media. Researchers all over the world have varied findings on the
effects of these forms of media on the academic performance of students.
Lee, R., Baring, R., Sta Maria, M., and Reysen, S., (2015) their research on
technology attitudes, social media use, and grade point average as predictors of global
citizenship identification in Filipino university students According to their study, they
investigate the impact of a positive attitude toward technology, the number of social
media network memberships, and grade-point average (GPA) on global citizenship
identification antecedents and outcomes. A survey of 3628 students from a university in
the Philippines was completed to assess the above constructs. The findings revealed
that attitude toward technology, number of social network site memberships, and GPA-
predicted global citizenship identification, and subsequent prosocial outcomes (e.g.
intergroup helping, responsibility to act for the betterment of the world), via the
Telephone: 238-2380, 238-2381, 238-2384
Fax: 255-1773

perception that valued others prescribe a global citizen identity (normative
environment), and perceived knowledge of the world and felt interconnectedness with
others (global awareness). The findings highlight the links between technology and
academic performance, as well as global identity and values.
