INTRODUCTION
CONTEXT AND RATIONALE
The mobile phone has made learning easy for the masses as it fits in
your hands and you can attend the lectures where ever you are. The mobile has
even made it possible for the working people to pursue their academics if due to
some reason it was left incomplete.

Mobile phones doesn’t only bring knowledge and amusement to the

students. We can say that in our society mobile phones help us in many ways in
all the sector in our community as we feel the importance of the mobile phones in
our lives but mobile phone usage on school is an increasing problem. Not only it
interrupts the class by ringing but also by texting, surfing the internet, taking
pictures of tests and the most common is the use of it to cheat in quizzes and
exams but it doesn’t mean that it is all bad as it gave a big contribution to a better
education, however despite of it everything should be taken in moderation.
Knowing the students’ belief passing is important. Students who believe they can
pass may be more likely to believe they can use their cell phones and pay
attention during class.

Mobile devices such as mobile phones and tablets are becoming

increasing popular among students, setting out a new way to communicate,
collaborate and learn. The use of portable devices has the capability to inspire
new approaches to learning. It is therefore important to examine the students‟
viewpoints about the educational use of mobile technology in supporting the
learning process.

Mobile phones have a positive impact that is useful for learning online,
looking for material that we do not understand on the internet, and others. On the
other hand researchers also discovered a negative relationship between mobile
phone usage and students' academic performance, namely on students who are
addicted to using mobile phones, cheat on assignments, lack focus in learning,
etc.

The importance of our study is to contribute to the knowledge and

progress of the said topic, mean to understand various issues that is timely, can
aid success to eradicate a certain issue and also a way to prove lies and support
truths.
We choose this topic or issue as it is a timely issue not only to the
students but all the people in the world as it is alarming to know the truth that we
are now controlled by technologies and also as we discover that many students
suffers depression by the use of it.
 The purpose of this study is to provide a solution or contribute to find a
solution to this issue or the topic that we choose. It will produce new knowledge
or deepen understanding of an issue. And to know the reasons and causes of
why students use mobile phones and what is the importance and effect, good or
bad on their academic performance.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM

This study aims to determine the Importance and Effects of Mobile Phones to
the Students of Carranglan National High School Specifically, it will seek answers to the
following questions:
1. What purpose do students use mobile phone?
2. What are the perceived effects of using mobile phones in term of:
a. Academic
b. Behavior
c. Social Aspect
d. Stress

SIGNIFICANT OF THE STUDY

instead and they will be aware of the importance and effect of mobile phones on the
children’s learning achievement, thus they could serve as a watch-dog to their children
so as to guide them on what are needed.
Teachers
The teachers are called as our second parents. They will be able to learn the
Importance and effects of mobile phones in the academic performance of the students.
By this they will be enlightened on how to control, discipline and teach the students.
School be enlightened to know the truth. Teachers would be more considerate about
the idea that smart phones are not at all bad to a students learning performance, but
also, this research will show them to what extent does mobile phones are useful to a
class and its limitations.

This research will serve as a basis for next any other researches that are related to
the said topic or problem.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
 A theory is a set of interrelated concepts, definitions, and propositions that
explains or predicts events or situations by specifying relations among variables. Theory
is heuristic for it stimulates and guides further development for knowledge.
Escape Theory (Faber R. J., O’Guinn T. C) has been used to explain the
effects of mobile phone usage. Mobile phones helps the affected individual escape
negative events or feelings. Mobile phones may be used to avoid larger, more pressing
problems. A constant focus on the “here and now” helps the cellphone user avoid
reflecting on issues that are disconcerting.
The Theory of mobile learning (Sharples, Taylor, & Vavoula, 2015)
isessential when thinking of the role of mobility and communication in learning
environments. This theory states the possible advantage and disadvantage of using
mobile phones.
SCOPE AND LIMITATION

 CHAPTER ll
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
Mobile phones enable students to access a variety of electronic media at
almost any time and place. Popular activities such as playing games, surfing the
internet ,texting and monitoring their own social media sites as it is linked to what is the
outcome of their academic performance being a student .In our present generation
students are obsessed using gadgets, They usually want to buy the latest release of
these gadgets especially mobile phones to satisfy their desires in terms of
entertainment and getting the newest of the new as a result students tend to use up
more time using mobile phones than on studying that’s why it affects the students study
habits and learning performance.
21st Century people are highly exposed to the digital world, especially students
of today’s generation. With so much technological exposure, students started to
integrate technology on their learning. Since mobile phone nowadays functions like a
computer, it is one of the most common gadgets that students use on their day to day
lives. If not used for messaging or for basic applications, students use it for their school
works and assignments by accessing readily available information on online websites,
commonly Google, while some use it for browsing Social Networking Sites (SNS)
commonly Facebook and Twitters to chat or communicate with different people across
wide distances or whatever motives they have. With these technological advancements,
of course, there are also its corresponding effects. We may not take it seriously, but
numerous studies have been conducted to find out link between mobile phones and its
importance on students’ learning performances.
Talking about mobile phones would not give us a hint on how does it affect
students’ lerning but when we delve in more on the question “how does students use
mobile phones?” we could find clues that would lead us to the resolution of our
questions. So to start, let’s raise the questions: How is a mobile phones used? What
applications? And in what sense does it affect students learning performance? To
address these sets of questions, Grosseck, et al. (2011) & Rosen et al. (2013),
conducted a study and found that the majority of students spend significant time on
Facebook more for social uses (to stay in touch with friends and family, to share / tag
photos, to engage in social activism, volunteering etc.) and less for academic purposes,
even if they take part in discussions about their assignments, lectures, study notes or
share information about research resources etc. So it is not uncommon that Facebook
is one of the priority lists of a student when using smartphone, but what is the
significance of Facebook to a students’ learning performance? To find out, a research
was conducted by our groups aiming to determine the relationship between learning
performance and mobile phone usage.
Using free mobile data, a student can access Facebook but with slow
processing of data that even pictures can’t be seen, how much more browsing another
websites? That would be impossible. Since the digital world is not focused only on
SNSs but also for digging useful information on different online websites like
Encyclopedia and Google, a mobile phone must have at least an internet connection.
According to Kumar (2011), the use of the Internet has become a part of life of every
student and a mean to search for the information as and when it is needed. These days,
use of mobile phones for internet purposes has become a routine and number of mobile
consumer accessing the Internet is surpassing fixed line internet users. The Mobile
phone with the capability of always connected makes it much easier for the students to
avail this type of education facility and makes the Smartphone a perfect fit device for
distance learning. Putting it in other words, Internet has been useful for a student
learning for it guarantees accessibility of information on the said online sources through
the use of mobile phones. In this case, with enough information, there can be a learning
process where mobile phone played a great role on the progress of students’ academic
performance as quoted from Abuhassna&Admin (2014) “The majority of students
indicated that mobile learning technologies and devices have improved their academic
performance in different ways. There was higher frequency agreement that social
networking improved students’ learning and Putra LMS improved students’ satisfaction
with the courses. The overall interpretation was that mobile learning has many
advantages as it can be used anywhere, anytime while improving communication and
enriching students' learning experiences in their learning.” Having personal devices,
such as smartphones would also help the school in meeting a student’s educational
need for instances like when the school can’t provide enough facilities for the learning of
the students like computers as elaborated more on the study conducted by Krebs
(2012) shows that Smartphone can have a huge impact on student achievement.
Skeptics, including some parents, worry about kids wasting time in class, but so far the
benefits of allowing personal technology in schools outweigh the risks. Students can
access the Internet even when school budgets limit the number of computers available,
and small numbers of devices can impact larger numbers of students if teachers allow
group work.
How long a student browses the Internet and access to different websites
refers to time. A study of a group of undergraduate students, published in the journal
Computers in Human Behavior in 2015, found that among undergraduate students, total
mobile-phone use (measured in number of minutes per day, not limited to school time)

was "a significant and negative predictor of college students' academic performance,
objectively measured as cumulative GPA." (Lepp, et al. 2015) So, the time a student
spent in front their mobile screen also played a vast role on their academic
performance, instead of using it for reading books, reviewing notes, and doing school
works, students tend to use it more for entertainment and less for education as stressed
by different researchers, for example from the observation of Nathia, et al. (2013);
Nalwa&Anand, (2003) states that “as mobile phones in societies increases, there is a
large growth in the use of mobile phones especially among the youth. This trend is
followed by the fast growth in use of online social networking services (SNS). Extensive
use of technology can lead to addiction. This study finds that the use of SNS mobile
applications is a significant predictor of mobile addiction.” Additionally, from researches
of Gergen (2002); Halpen (2003); and Franzini (2002) states that “researchers have
discovered that the use of mobile phone in schools is problematic. As Ling and
Helmerson (2000) states, the mobile phone is ‘at cross purpose with the mission of the
school’. While in school students are supposed to take on their prescribed roles as
students with full concentration on their studies and free from contact with the outside
world. However, the mobile phone gives room to blending students’ roles with other
roles thus distracting and disrupting the students’ academic work.” Due to this sanction,
three researches have all-in-one common findings about the mobile addiction
phenomenon: “an increasing reliance on cell-phones among young adults, and college
students may signal the evolution of cell-phone use from a habit to an addiction.
Although the concept of addiction has multiple definitions, traditionally it has been
described as the repeated use of a substance despite the negative consequences
suffered by the addicted individual.” (Alavi, et al. 2012; Stieglitz&Brockmann, 2013 and
S. & A. Davey, 2015) In other words, mobile addiction then is a conscious action of
mobile addicts, but they tend to see it on different perspective than referring it as
“addiction” as explained by the a study of Chakraborty, et al. (2010), that although
various etiological theories could be used to explain which cell-phone activities are most
likely to lead to addiction (e.g., Escape Theory), Learning theory seems particularly
appropriate. Learning Theory emphasizes, among other things, the rewards gained from
various cell-phone activities. So as stated, there are possible theories of mobile phone
addiction, the Escape and Learning Theory. Escape Theory which literally means “to get
away” from this reality and be present somewhere at the world of mobile phone and
Learning Theory in which a mobile-user gains satisfaction to the rewards he/she gain
from different mobile applications. Another research mentioned the term “smartphone
poisoning” which means “connection to poisoning phenomena habitually using a
smartphone without special purpose for and showing anxiety and restlessness without a
smart phone.” (Park, et al., 2014) which is an obvious effect of smartphone addiction.

Moving on from citing theories to observing experiments of different conducted related

studies regarding addiction. A recent study entitled “Relationships among smartphone
addiction, stress, academic performance, and satisfaction with life” Samaha&Hawi
(2016) is aiming to investigate the relationship between risk of mobile phone addiction
and satisfaction with life mediated by stress and academic performance. The other aim
was to explore whether satisfaction with life mediated by stress and academic
performance facilitates smartphone addiction. To identify test subjects, systematic
random sampling was implemented. A total of 300 university students completed an
online survey questionnaire that was posted to the student information system. The
survey questionnaire collected demographic information and responses to scales
including the Smartphone Addiction Scale - Short Version, the Perceived Stress Scale,
and the Satisfaction with Life Scale. Data analyses included Pearson correlations
between the main variables and multivariate analysis of variances. The results showed
that smartphone addiction risk was positively related to perceived stress, but the latter
was negatively related to satisfaction with life. Additionally, a mobile phone addiction
risk was negatively related to academic performance, but the latter was positively
related to satisfaction with life. The findings on the said study then sealed the notion that
smartphone addiction has negatively impacted students’ academic performance, in a
sense that “learners are constantly interrupted by the other applications on the phones
when they are studying, and does not have enough control over their Smartphone
learning plan and its process.” and that the presence of mobile phone during a class
lecture would only distract the student to the lessons, as supported by an experimental
study of Kuznekoff&Titsworth (2013), where participants in three different study groups
(control, low-distraction, and high-distraction) watched a video lecture, took notes on
that lecture, and took two learning assessments after watching the lecture. Students
who were not using their mobile phones wrote down 62% more information in their
notes, took more detailed notes, were able to recall more detailed information from the
lecture, and scored a full letter grade and a half higher on a multiple choice test than
those students who were actively using their mobile phones.
But even how wide the scope of mobile addiction and its effects on students’
learning performance, it is still not the natural tendency of all smartphone-user. There
are still cases where smartphones, if used in a way that is relevant to the content of the
discussed topics of a class, would positively impact students’ academic performance
like the experimental study titled “Mobile Phones in the Classroom: Examining the
Effects of Texting, Twitter, and Message Content on Student Learning” of
Kuznekoff&Titsworth (2013), is designed to examined mobile phone use in the
classroom by
using an experimental design to study how message content (related or unrelated to
class lecture) and message creation (responding to or creating a message) impact
student learning. Participants in eight experimental groups and a control group watched
a video lecture, took notes, and completed tests of student learning. The control and
relevant message groups earned a 10–17% higher letter grade, scored 70% higher on
recalling information, and scored 50% higher on note-taking than students who
composed tweets or responded to irrelevant messages. Sending/receiving messages
unrelated to class content negatively impacted learning and note-taking, while related
messages did not appear to have a significant negative impact. So it means that the
impact from the usage of a smartphone on students’ academic performance depends
upon how it is used. Furthermore, In a study of Sykes (2014), found that with a mixed
method design that students using a smartphone application enjoyed and performed
very well in a course, so they exceeded their performance of a comparison group
(traditional course) with statistically significant differences. In addition to this, a related
study by Tosta (2013) concluded that, smartphones are a phenomenon that has
changed daily life and learning styles of students, has forced changes in teaching
strategies for teachers, and has changed the rules and policies of educational
institutions. Since these technological devices have all in one, it have become popular
among the educational community of almost every country around the world.
 With the above discussion of related studies, the common link between those
researches and this current research is the aim to determine the impacts of
smartphones on Students’ Academic Performance, how it was used, how long it was
used and it’s affect to students’ Grade Percentage Average (GPA).

The answers of the respondents in almost all the 5 questions that were asked reflects
how they use mobile phones. It indicated particularly in the answers in the second
questions that students connect and communicate with other people through social
media. Among the mentioned social media applications are Facebook, Messenger, and
Instagram. They also use it for a way of entertainment through reading stories, watching
videos and playing games. Mobile phones also serve as students’ way of looking up
information but mostly when their circumstance requires them particularly for academic
purpose.

Usage Purpose
Mobile phone usage of students is mainly due to entertainment and connection they find
through social media, videos, readings, and games. This affirms to the result of the
study conducted by Ahmed A. (2022), to study the use of mobile phone by mass
communication students of Yarmouk University shows that there is an extensive use of
mobile phones and it serves as the student’s source of entertainment, communication
and their source of information.

 Positive  Mobile phone aid students learning

and discovery
 Connection  Mobile phone provides stress relief
 Communication  Use of mobile phone can take up
 Interaction too much time which leads to
 Stress reliever being irresponsible
 Entertainment  Mobile phone usage promotes
 Searching unhealthy lifestyle
 Become more open
 updated

Negative

 Forgot responsibilities
 Lazy
 Sleep at night too late
 No enough time for self and
studies
 Distraction
 Not eating well

Academic
Students who use mobile phones enjoy positive effects in their usage. According to the
answer of the responses, positive effect outweighs the negative. All the respondents of
the study said that their phone help them in looking for information and unfamiliar words
online. One respondent elaborated, “It helped me by searching the definitions of
something I don’t know”. Mobile phone aid students in their learning process. It assists
student at answering their homework and activities and giving them necessary
information. A study of Yuen F.C., et.al. (2022) realized that mobile phone usage has a
social influence that positively influence students’ academic behavior. Furthermore,
Irshad A.D. (2022) indicates that the device provides technological features that allows
students to access learning resources.
Social
Respondents of the study admitted that mobile phone helps them keep in touch with
classmates and teacher. One respondent said that her use of mobile phone helps her
bond with friends in social media. It provides them an easy way of communication
through social media and messaging applications. Because of this easy flow of
communication, students are kept updated. The features that social media provide for
users allows free flow and convenient way of interaction for the respondents.
Stress
This is also related to the relief that the students get in using mobile phones. The results
shows that the entertainment they get from mobile phone usage eases their stress and
help them detach from the thought of their problems. Added to this, students are able to
lessen their stress by being open through communication their social media
applications. An article written by Mesfin A.B. (2020), suggest that mindful use of mobile
phone can positively affect one’s mental health.
Behavior
The responses gathered reflects negative effects of using mobile phone in their
behavior. A respondent said that her use of mobile phone makes her forget about her
responsibilities at home. Some respondents said that they feel lazy and distracted in
doing stuffs because of their mobile phones. In this case, it could appear negatively if
not use in a mindful way as Mesfin A.B. said. Jing T.S., et.al. (2023) concluded that
mobile phone addiction is related to lack of self-control and causes poor sleep quality. In
fact, the responses shows that students sleep late at night than their supposed time of
sleep when using mobile phone. Mobile phone entertainment catches the attention of
the users making them stick themselves in their phone for a longer time leading to
irresponsibility, laziness, and unhealthy lifestyle.
 Chapter 5
Summary, Conclusion, Recommendation
Summary
The study describes the mobile phone usage of students of Carranglan National High
School. Through thematic analysis of the responses from 5 questions given to the
respondents, patterns are determined and helped to build themes according to
categories: Mobile phone use; and implications on students academic, behavior, social
aspect, and stress.
In light of the results gathered, the study found that (1) students primarily use their
phone for entertainment. Through watching in their phone, reading, playing, and
communicating students are able to reduce their stress. Social media platforms are the
means of communication of students, (2) this enables them to stay connected to their
peers and teachers and stay updated regarding what they should know. Moreover, (3)
students use their phone as a means of finding information online. These features aid
their learning journey conveniently. However, since their gadget take their time (4)
respondents tends to neglect their responsibilities and health. Without mindful usage,
the students may lead a healthy lifestyle.
Conclusion
Using the findings as a basis, the study concludes that:
1. Mobile phone usage positively influences students in their academic, stress
relief, and social interaction if they use it mindfully. It serves as their way of
convenient discovery both in academic and real-life situations
2. Students rely on their phone when feeling stress to lighten their feeling instead of
resorting to other methods such as going-out and conversing personally with
friends or family
3. Students’ usage of mobile phone semi-consciously affects their daily routine.

Recommendation
Noted the findings and conclusions derived from the responses. The study suggests
ideas that will further the advantage of mobile phone in academic settings and to avoid
its negative implications and helps in future researches.
a) For student users must use their mobile phone to efficiently catch up with their
academics
b) Utilize mobile phone usage as a convenient way of communication and building
relationship between teachers and students, and students to students
c) Utilize this study as a guideline for students in a purposeful usage of their mobile
phones
d) Further study should be taken to determine the mediators of phone usage and
negative behavior or routine
