CHAPTER 1
THE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE

Rationale of the Study


Social media is a type of electronic communication that makes interaction

easier based on certain interests and characteristics. They are media for social

interaction, and use highly accessible and scalable publishing based

technologies which are able to transform broadcast media monologues into

social dialogues through the favorite realm of internet sites such as Facebook,

Twitter, MySpace, Whatsapp, Instagram, and YouTube. Social media are

computer mediated tools that allow people to create, share information, ideas,

pictures and videos in virtual communities and networks. Ames (2013) defined

social media as ‘a group of internet based applications that build on the

ideological and technological foundations of web 2.0 and all the creation and

exchange of user generated content’. Burke and Kraut (2014) defined social

media as ‘the many relatively inexpensive and widely accessible electronic tools

that enable anyone to publish and access information, collaborate and build

relationships’. That is, social media can afford its users unlimited access in as

much as they intend to make use of it. Thus, the reason for the adoption of social

media is as a result of its ubiquitous access, flexibility, functionality as well as its

convenience. The social media rely on the mobile and web based technologies to

create highly interactive platforms through which individuals and communities

can share, discuss, co create and modify the user generated content. These

platforms introduce substantial and penetrating changes to communication


between organizations, businesses, individuals and communities (Baumer,

Adams, Khovanskaya, Liao, Smith, Schwanda& Williams, 2013).

Facebook has continued to be the most widely used form of social media

(Nielson Company, 2014). Social media use as a whole can by no means be

characterized as proportionate with Facebook use. A range of social media sites

like YouTube, Twitter, Instagram have been created primarily for social and

leisure purposes, and are also widely used by the millennials and students in

particular (Nielson Company, 2014). Students form the largest number of users

of social media. According to Lenhart, Purcell, Smith and Zickuhr (2010), 72% of

all students have a social media profile with 45% of them using social media at

least once a day. Time management consists of tools and activities that help an

individual effectively manage and strategize his time. Through effective time

management, one can increase individual or group productivity and experience

larger profits that will lead to a more satisfying overall life experience. Time

Management is defined as a way of monitoring and controlling time. Time

management as defined by North (2004) is the organization of tasks and events

by first estimating how much time a task will take to be completed, when it must

be completed and then adjusting events that would interfere with its completion

so that completion is reached in the appropriate amount of time. Many students

may have time management problems as they have become addicted to the use

of social media to the extent that they care little or nothing about their studies. As

a result of this, they practically spend their whole time using the social media and

it has affected them and in their studies so much that they perform poorly. This
situation has created fear in the hearts of parents as to what the future holds for

their children (Nalwa&Anand, 2003).

The heavy use of social media has raised many questions about how

students incorporate social media into their lives and whether by doing so, it

supports or hinders students’ broader social and academic development, which

is reflected in the ability to read deeply, think critically and form authentic

friendships. Karpinski and Duberstein (2009) were of the view that among the

various unique distractions of every generation, Facebook has remained a major

distraction of and for the current generation. The use of social media has been

increasing among students of all ages. Students use at least one type of social

media platform in their daily lives. Many students face problems when it comes to

managing their time and they feel the need to improve themselves. However,

with the proliferation of social media, youths spend more or most of their time in

and on the social media which they believe to derive pleasure from the

technological devices. Hence, Olubiyi (2012) observes that the bone of

contention of the social media is the obsessive attitude of youths towards its use.

He points out that youth’s waste time through idle chats and other immoral acts.

The result is that quality time that ought to be spent on academic research and

other productive networking is lost they are not the same and a key point with

time management is to deal with important tasks before they become urgent, as

it is easier to do the important tasks well when they are not urgent.
Theoretical Background

Over the past few decades, technology has truly revolutionized our

lives.Perhaps one of the biggest transformations has occurred within the

technology is the use Communication prior to the industrial revolution, society

had a virtually non-existentform of communication media before. However, as life

began to transform, technology in communicationbegan to grow in all aspects.

With each decade within the twentieth century, edge-breaking theories were

presented in relation to the communication field.The theories that brought forth a

relatively astonishing perspective to this field werethe Usesand Gratifications

theory, Maslow’s Need Theory and Stephen Covey’s TimeManagement theory.

Uses and Gratification Theory was founded by Elihu Katz in 1959, when

Herzogexamined the reasons why people use the radio to listen to quiz

programme (Herzog, 1944 in Katz, 1959). Katz (1959) observed that the

outcomes of media usage depended on why and how people decide to use the

media. There are two important components that are discussed in Uses and

Gratification Theory which are, the media that choose tobe engaged and the

gratification that one derives from such a media (Ruggiero, 2000). This theory

works operationally through the social and psychological needs for individuals

generating motives and expectation of the mass media (Katz, 1959) and how

individuals use media to satisfy their needs and achieve their goals. Newhagen

and Rafaeli (as cited in Patrick, 2010) mentioned that uses and gratification

theory is suitable for the internet because the internet has something that is

suitable for everyone, be it information seeking, inter-personal communication,


entertainment, or escapism. It is just like ‘chameleon like character’.In

conclusion, Uses and Gratification Theory states that people’s usage in social

media is a matter of choice, and it is also suitable for everyone, that somehow

relates to a chameleon, in which it can be fit for all who used it. That is why there

are a lot of people nowadays who engage themselves on social media, with

various reasons why they are engaging themselves unto it. Elihu Katz first

introduced the uses and gratification approach, when he came upwith the notion

that people use the media to their benefit. The perspective emerged inthe early

1970’s as Katz and his two colleagues, Jay Blumler and Michael

Gurevitchcontinued to expand the idea. This theory was contemporary because it

contradicted older views that assumed the audience was a passive group. The

Uses and Gratifications theory views the audience as active, meaning that they

actively seek out specific media and content to achieve certain results or

gratifications that satisfy their personal needs. The sources of the media chosen

are distinctive. As Blumler points out in his book “The Use of Mass

Communication, “Studies have shown that audience gratifications can be derived

from at least three distinct sources: media content, exposure to the media perse,

and social context that typifies the situation of exposure to different media”

(Blumler, 1974). It is clear that audiences spend time using the media in various

ways. Whether they are killing time or using it as a social tool, each medium is

unique in its purpose.

Maslow's Needs and Motivation Theory, is a theory in psychology

proposed by Abraham Maslow in his 1943 paper "A Theory of Human Motivation"
in Psychological Abraham Review Maslow (1943). Maslow's hierarchy of needs

is often portrayed in the shape of a pyramid with the largest, most fundamental

levels of needs at the bottomand the need for self-actualization at the top

(Maslow, 1943 and Steere, 1988). While the pyramid has become the de facto

way to represent the hierarchy, Maslow himself never used a pyramid to describe

these levels in any of his writings on the subject. The most fundamental and

basic four layers of the pyramid contain what Maslow called "deficiency needs" or

"D-Needs": esteem, friendship and love, security, and physical needs. If these

"deficiency needs" are not met with the exception of the most fundamental

(physiological) needs, there may not be a physical indication, but the individual

will feel anxious and tense. Maslow's theory suggests that the most basic level of

needs must be met before the individual will strongly desire (or focus motivation

upon) the secondary or higher level needs. Maslow also coined the term

"metamotivation" to describe the motivation of people who go beyond the scope

of the basic needs and strive for constant betterment (Goble, 1970). The human

mind and brain are complex and have parallel processes running at the same

time, thus many different motivations from various levels of Maslow's hierarchy

can occur at the same time. Instead of stating that the individual focuses on a

certain need at any given time, Maslow stated that a certain need "dominates"

the human organism (Maslow, 1954). Thus, Maslow acknowledged the likelihood

that the different levels of motivation could occur at any time in the human mind,

but he focused on identifying the basic types of motivation and the order in which

they should be met. As supported by Maslow’sNeeds theory, people desire to


fulfill a sense of belonging through support fromrelationships with others. After

obtaining physiological and safety needs, people strive to achieve Maslow’s third

need of belonging. New social media provide this opportunity where people can

communicate with others and belong to different networks via virtual communities

on the internet. Social media network sites help to fulfill communication needs

and wants. It is a convenient method of communication and provides the ability to

stay connected with friends and family, but on the users own rate and time

(Urista, Dong, & Day, 2009). Students can manage their interactions within their

own schedule by choosing when they want to read and respond using the social

media platform. Thus, to achieve and fulfill this need of belonging, students

spend majority of their time on the social media platforms in order to fulfill their

need of belongingness.

Stephen Covey is one of the most successful self-help authors of all time.

The time management theory was made popular by Stephen Covey in 1999. It is

based on the idea that all our time is spent in four quadrants. Covey argues that,

as a field of management study, time management has gone through four

stages:

1. Identifying tasks and recognizing demands on our time

2. Using calendars and appointment books to schedule and plan for the future

3. Planning ahead and prioritizing activities; applying personal values to the

process ofprioritization

4. Focusing on activities that are not urgent but are important.


People who adhere to the fourth generation of time management focus on

effectiveness and results, rather than efficiency and methods. They realize and

prioritize the importance of relationships. Covey recognizes that we often have

different roles and needs within our lives, such as family, work, community, time

for ourselves, and recreation or other activities. Covey’s time management theory

is based on the assumption that we should manage time around what is

‘important’, not what is ‘urgent’, and that this should be carried out and planned

across the different roles. The idea is that all activities can be distinguished using

two categories: ‘importance’ and ‘urgency’. He uses a four-box matrix to convey

this. Urgency is represented on the horizontal axis, and activities can be placed

either in the ‘low’ or ‘high’ box. Importance is represented on the vertical axis in

the same way. Covey recommends listing relevant activities and then placing

them in the appropriate quadrant. Any High Urgency/High Importance projects

(or crises) you have listed should be minimized, as should urgent but unimportant

tasks. Covey believes that the key to success is concentrating on’ highly

important’, but‘non-urgent’ issues, across all the identified roles. These, he

argues, are the most important in terms of self-development, but are also the

ones that are most commonly ignored. There are tasks such as writing a

personal mission statement, long-range planning and preparation.Urgency is

time related, importance is value related, but most people respond to urgency

rather than importance. Whilst they can coincide.

Statement of the Problem

The purpose of this study is to investigate the Common Effects of Social Media

Engagement to the Time Management of Students in Asian Learning Center.

Specifically, it answers the following questions:

1. What is the average percentage of students who was not able to manage

their time well?

2. Which among the effects is more likely encountered by the students?

2.1 Lesser time to study

2.2 Laziness at home

2.3 Important things turns to urgency

2.4 Unable to make their day productive

3. Based on the findings, what recommendation can be proposed?

Significance of the Study

The result of the study will be a great benefit to the following:

Teachers are conceived as one of the main beneficiaries of this study


since, they are considered to be astudent’s second parents. Through this
conducted study, the teacher will find out why some of the students can’t pass
their projects, homeworks or any important things that is school related on time.

Students are one of the most target beneficiaries of this study, in which
the result of this might help them to develop or improve their self specially in
managing their time well, and instead of engaging it to social media, they should
have it into something more important than that.

Parents are the direct guardian of the students. It is them who would
nurture and guide their children more than other people (teachers and any other
people). Through this study, the parents will find out why their children can’t
perform or accomplish their assigned tasks very well specially on time. And by
that, the parents can help their child develop his/her self in managing and
engaging their time to something more important.

Through this study, the School Administrator will able to find out what
extent do the students deal on having a hard time on balancing their time, and by
that, It will give them idea on what they need to do or programs to offer to the
students to help them.

Future Researchers this study would be a source of information for them


who will conduct the same study.

DEFINITION OF TERMS

This terms below are the ff. terms that can be found to the study;

Social Media Engagement According to Promo Republic, Social Media

Engagement is some form of interaction between the costumer and the brand,
which takes place within social media networks. While in this study, Social Media

Engagement means people are making use of time on engaging themselves in

social media.

Time Management According to Wikipidea source, Time Management is

the process of planning and exercising conscious control of time spent on

specific activities, while in this study, Time Management means prioritizing a

necessary things according to the time that we/you have.

Lesser Time to Study According to Wikipidea source, it refers to not

having enough time of doing something that is important or necessary. While in

this study, it simply means that a particular student has no enough time to study,

any important things that somehow relates to school.

Laziness at home According to Wikipedia source, means not liking to

work hard or to be active. While in this study, it means that a student can’t able to

finish a task/chores at home because of too much engagement in Social Media.

Important things turns to Urgency According to a study, an important

things turns to urgency when the preparation of it or the way it was done is time

related. While in this study, it means that an important things will no longer be

valuable because it is urgently done due to lack of time in doing it.

Unable to make their day productive In this study, it means that instead

of doing important things, an individual wasn’t able to perform it because of

having not enough time because of engaging the rest of it to social media.
CHAPTER 2

REVIEW RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

Social media is the combination of various internet tools that enable users

to generate, exchange and modify content continuously According to (Noone,

Mcguire, &Rohlfs, 2011). The World Wide Web has radically altered the way we

share information by lowering the barrier to publishing and accessing documents

on the internet (Bizer, Heath, & Berners-Lee, 2009). From its early origin as a

simple portal to publish and share data it has grown into the interactive

architecture commonly referred to as Web 2.0, a term which was originally

coined by Tim O’Reilly in 2005 and refers to a loose gathering of a wide variety of

family-resembling technologies, services and products (Floridi, 2009).

According to Affilorama (2011) social media as a content that is created

and shared by individuals on the web using freely available websites that allow

users to be able to create and post their own images, video and text information

and then share that with either the entire internet or just a selected group of

friends. According to CubixDev (2011) social media is the new term for

socializing online, as it allows people the liberty to interact with each other online

wherever and whenever they want. In connection to this study, it shows that

websites for social media is freely available for everyone that allows them to do

what they want any time in their lives, and when someone engages to social

media, there are lot of things that can’t be done because of having not enough

time.
Time is an essential resource. It is irrecoverable, limited and dynamic.

Irrecoverable because every minute spent is gone forever, limited because only

24 hours exist in a day and dynamic because it is never static. It keeps moving

and does not wait for anybody According to (Lucas & David, 2008). Time is a

continuous process that encompasses event from the past, bringing it to today

and then extending it to the future, and is usually the main aspect that gives

meaning to movement (Tutar, 2007). That is to say that, time is the whole period

that defines our existence. Every individual has a certain time limit and though it

may seem never ending, time cannot be infinite (Bal & Bal,2015). Furthermore,

time is a precious and unique resource that all creatures of the universe possess

in common but cannot be used in the same manner (Orucu, Tikici&Kanbur,

2007). It cannot be collected like money, stored like raw material, offered to

others like a piece of cake, stopped like a vehicle neither can it be used like a

good and replaced in anyway (Sabuncuoglu, Pasa&Kanmaz, 2010). Time is an

endowment that most people seek to make the most of. Although, people can get

paid hourly wages for using their time on labour, people cannot buy and sell units

of time in the same way they can trade other commodities such as food and coal.

This makes time unique. Time is finite and in terms of amount of time that exists

in a person’s life, there is not much time inequality in comparison to other

endowments such as money. In addition, the choice on how to spend time affects

a lot of other aspects of life as well as a person’s happiness.

Through effective time management, one can increase individual or group

productivity and experience larger profits that will lead to a more satisfying overall
life experience. Time management can be defined as a set of planned activities

or carefully selected tools which allows you to effectively manage your time

properly. Students most times, have difficulties when it comes to managing their

time especially as it relates to prioritizing academic and non academic activities.

However, there is need for students to learn how to prioritize their activities and

assign a specific timeframe to each activity. Time management is the ability to

decide what is important in life both at work, at home and even in our personal

lives. Time management plays a very important role not only in organizations but

also in our daily lives.

Gerald (2002) sees time management as a set of principles, practices,

skills, tools and systems that work together to help you get more value out of

your time with the aim of improving the quality of our life. Also, Argarwal (2008)

asserts that time management is usually a personal problem and if one

instinctively knows what the right is0, then there is no need to worry. Unlike other

things, time lost never comes back. Factors that cause bad time management

are called time traps. It is possible to list time traps as sleep, television , long

distance computing, low reading pace, instructions, work area, not saying ‘no’,

telephone, mobile phone, e-mail and not knowing how to relax and long waiting

(Hickox, 2006). Most especially today, insensible consumption of the internet and

social media are part of time traps. Although, it is expected that technological

improvements minimize time loss and help us do things more effective and in a

short time. It actually drives us apart from real life and become time traps.

According to Goethe, ‘the worst of all thieves is the one who steals our time
because everything stolen might be replaced one day; however, stolen time is

irreplaceable (Degirmenci, 2005). One of the effects of time management

problem for many people is the imbalance in their lives which causes them to

spend less time on things that need to be done.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Research Design

The research design used in this study is a Descriptive Quantitative.

Descriptive describes the characteristics of the population or phenomenon that is

being studied. It also primarily focuses on describing the nature of a demographic

segment without focusing on “why” a certain phenomenon occurs. While

quantitative attempts to collect quantifiable datas to be used for statistical

analysis of the population sample. Hence, the nature of the variable or their

behavior is not in the hands of the researchers.

Research Respondents

The respondents of this study are the selected Grade XII students-

Afternoon Session in Asian Learning Center-Pajo Campus in school year 2019-

2020. Out of 645 total number of students from different strands in afternoon

session, the researcher have come up with the total of 160 respondents. The

researchers used a Slovin’s formula with the use of an online calculator with the

confidence level of 85% with the plus 5 margin of error. This means 160 or more
measurements are needed and the real value is within 5% of the measured

survey value.

The researcher divided the 160 respondents into 5, which results to 32

respondents in each strand. In order to get the total respondents of 160.

Research Environment

This study was conducted in one of the academic institution located at

Sangi Road, Pajo , Lapulapu City and was established on the year 1991. Asian

Learning Center is a Christian School that has 4 branches located at Pajac, Pajo,

Main Campus in Poblacion and lastly the Punta Rizal Branch. Both Pajac and

Pajo Branch offer primary and secondary education, Main Campus in Poblacion

offers kindergarten and K11 specifically the Humanities and Social Science

Strand and lastly, Punta Rizal Branch only offers a K11 Education namely the

Accountancy and Business Management and General Academic Strand.


This Academic Institution upholds a following goals, provides every

learner the opportunity to receive quality Christian Education, produce Christ-like

Leaders who are compassionate for others, and student who reach out their

neighbors and the world of Jesus. Asian Learning Center empowers and provide

Holistic Christian Education and lastly, transform learners to become innovative.

Research Instruments

This study used a researcher-made questionnaire in regards with the

research “Common Effects of Social Media Engagement to the Time

Management of the selected students in Asian Learning Center-Pajo Campus.”

The questionnaire was based on the Theories and Related Studies presented. It

consists of three (3) scales ranging from Always to Never, Always as all times,

Sometimes as certain times, and Never as not ever or not at all, also the

questionnaire is composed of questions. Lastly, the respondents of this study

were instructed to put a check mark on their desired choice.

Data Gathering Procedure

This study is consist of how the researchers gathered the datas

needed.First, the researchers made a transmittal letter for the OIC Principal T.

Jonebert O. Garsula asking for his permission in conducting the research.

Second, the OIC Principal, T. Jonebert Garsula approved and signed the letter,

third the researcher then proceed on conducting the survey. The researcher

proceed to the rooms and distributed the survey questionnaire to the selected

students, the researchers picked up the random names of the respondents using
a fishbowl method. After all the respondents answered the questions, the

researchers collected it.After gathering all the necessary datas from the selected

respondents, the researchers tallied all the datas.Lastly, the researchers analyze

all the datas gathered.

CHAPTER 5

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS, CONCLUSION, AND RECOMMENDATION

This chapter presents the summary of findings, conclusion, and

recommendations as to the Common Effects of Social Media Engagement

through Time Management a student encounters.

Findings

After the researchers interpret and analyze the datas that is presented at

Chapter 4, interpretation and discussion of the findings. The researchers found

out that the highest number of Common Effects is 4.23%. It was found out that

the higher the social media usage, the lower their time management that causes

their day not to be productive.

Conclusion

Based on the findings of the study, it was concluded that among the four

effects that the researchers had given based from the corresponding theories

and related studies presented, It was shown that the fourth effect which is Unable

to make their day productive garners the highest average of Weighted Mean,

states that the more an individual or student engages to social media the more

he/she will lower its time management or wasn't able to perform well because of

too much engagement on social media that leads to unproductive day that can

affects a lot of things and individual has.


Recommendation:

In regards to the findings and conclusions, the researchers offered the ff.

Recommendation to start with the respondents should determine what common

effects is needed to cope up. Thus, Time Management is important to learn

because it help us to balance what we need to do in our daily lives routine. The

key to the common effects that the students encounter is to educate the

students about managing their time because it help us in everyday lives, we can’t

get back every second of the time that we had wasted, that’s why we should

spent our time wisely. As early as now, we should learn on how to manage our

time and balanced everything. The school should also have a Program to

students that talks about being responsible to their time, In order to enhance the

students time management. With the help of this program there will be a big

possibility that the students will be good managing time properly, and by that they

can submit their assigned tasks and will make their day more productive. Also

the program will help the students to improve themselves in regards to that

matter. Doing the important things on time and able to accomplish it. By this, they

can also develop themselves, knowing what is more important and what is urgent

and what values the most. In addition, Teachers can also help the students to
