INFLUENCE OF
SOCIAL NETWORK ON ACADEMIC ADJUSTMENT OF IN-SCHOOL ADOLESCENTS
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1
Background of the study
Electronic
communication has become an integral part of our global society. Presently,
information is at the doormat of everybody because the world is in the era of
information technology. This cannot be compared to few decades back when it
takes weeks for one to communicate through letter writing to a beloved one
within in or outside the country. In this technological era, information is no
longer left for only a few privileged people who can afford the use of landline
telephone in offices and homes. Even the people in the remotest village in
Nigeria and elsewhere can access information through the cell phone, available
internet and social networking sites.Social networking is a means of
communication through which tools like wall posts, status updates, activity
feeds, thumbs ups and profiles are used and perhaps characterized online
communications namely face book, Myspace Metlog,flicker and twitter (Akaneme,
Ibenegbu &Nwosu, 2013). Also, Mashable (2015)opined that social networking
service is an online platform or site that focuses on facilitating the social
relations among people who, for example, share interests,activities, backgrounds
or real life.In the opinion of Ferguson (2007), social networking is online
destination which focuses on connecting people they already know and those they
do not know. Similarly, Abd-Rahman (2013) described social networking as the
use of online sites (social networking sites) for people to get to know new
people, share their profiles, trace their old friends, share pictures, videos,
publish upcoming events of their societies, and counties.
In
operational terms, social networking is a platform through which individuals’
interest, profiles, pictures, activities, events or news and academic issues
are shared and communicated so as to maintain and adopt substantial balance
between their academic requirement and individual interest. Social networking
as advent of era of information is the use of dedicated websites which enable
social interaction and applications to interact with other users or find people
with similar interest to their own.
Presently,
social networking as a new development has been described as a stage for
facilitation and development of adolescents’ social adaptation(Subrahmanyam
& Green-Field, 2008; Zhao, Grasmuck & Martin, 2008). Also,people use
social networking to share their feeling and disposition toindividualsof their
networking (Young, 2011). It is a platform through which people communicate and
disclose their personal thoughts, feelings and life events (Zhao,Grasmuck &
Martin, 2008). Operationally, social networking, therefore, implyplat form or
online media where individual privately unleash their identities,problems and
views to life for others in the same network to comment. Social network
platform includes 2go, facebook, whatsapp, twitter, instagram, google,
tomention a few.
