ABSTRACT:
this age of technology, social media has become part of our daily life and it is highly used among student population. Nevertheless, together with its benefits there have actually been problems with its impact to students’ academic achievement. This study was conducted to determine the level of social media usage on learners’ academic achievement. Specifically, it endeavored to describe the respondents’ characteristics; find the respondents level of social media usage; assess the respondents’ academic achievement; and determine the significant relationship between the respondents’ social media usage and their academic achievement and each of their characteristics. The respondents were the one hundred fifty-four (154) Grade 10 learners in Claveria, Misamis Oriental, during the School Year 2023-2024. Descriptive survey method of research was employed using a patterned and modified questionnaire. Slovin’s formula was used with stratified sampling procedure and descriptive statistics such as frequency, mean, standard deviation and Pearson Product Moment Correlation to analyze and interpret the data gathered. The study showed that most of the respondents rely heavily on social media platforms such as Facebook, where most of them used it for more than 3 hours per day, with a weekly allowance of Php50.00 were considered as majority users. The level of respondents’ social media usage was high and the level of their academic achievement in Filipino, English, Science and Araling Panlipunan was very satisfactory, while satisfactory in Mathematics. However, the relationship between respondents’ social media usage and the academic achievement and each of their characteristics was not significant, as well as their relationship between the respondents’ academic achievement and characteristics. This study concludes that despite exploring multiple aspects of social media usage, including its purposes as well as respondents' characteristics, the study failed to detect any statistically significant relationships. This study contributes to understanding of the complex relationship between social media use and academic achievement, and highlights the need for further research to identify underlying factors that affect student academic achievement. It is recommended that learners should integrate technology in a way that supports learning.
