Abstract | This paper investigates the impact of social media on higher secondary school students in Jowai Town, Meghalaya. With the growing integration of social media in the lives of students, the study aims to explore both its positive and negative implications—particularly focusing on academic performance, psychological development, and digital safety. The research adopts a descriptive methodology and collects primary data through questionnaires distributed to students from Classes XI and XII across several schools in Jowai. It finds that while social media enhances learning and communication, excessive and unregulated use can adversely affect mental health, concentration, and interpersonal relationships. The study concludes with educational implications and suggestions for policy interventions to promote safe and constructive usage. |
