[EnglishSTF-7095] Excessive use of technology may play havoc with children’s studies: survey

2016-06-29 Thread Gurumurthy Kasinathan 
dear teachers (and parents),

We really have to monitor the use of digital technologies by our children,
it can be very harmful to them. This study only reinforces what many of us
have been seeing in our homes and classrooms... inability to focus/pay
attention for long periods of time disinclination to studies ... and
real life activities.

one way is to restrict the number of hours you allow children to use the
computer or smart phone.
second way is to keep the computer in the main hall/living room where it is
visible to all. Discourage use in their own rooms.

regards
Guru

Excessive use of technology may play havoc with children’s studies: survey
Tanu Kulkarni

The study, which covered 200 students, was carried out in two schools and a
pre-university college in Bengaluru.— File Photo

If your adolescent child is hooked on to the phone or lost in the virtual
world, or busy playing video games, you should keep a watch. This excessive
use of technology is likely to interfere in the adolescent’s academics,
participation in sports, socialising, and even on time spent time with
family and friends, a survey by the National Institute of Mental Health and
Neurosciences (NIMHANS) has found.

Nearly 73.5 per cent of the 200 adolescents interviewed for the survey
reported dysfunction in one form or the other. The survey pointed out that
adolescents reported attention problems, which led to a decline in academic
functions.

The results of the survey, conducted in 2014, have now been accepted to be
published in the ASEAN Journal of Psychiatry. The survey aimed to study the
technology pattern among teenagers and its relationship with psychological
variables.

According to it, 19.5 per cent of the students were addicted to gaming,
15.5 per cent to mobile phones, and 18 per cent to the Internet. The
survey, which covered 200 students, was carried out in two schools and a
pre-university college in Bengaluru.

Manoj Kumar Sharma, Additional Professor, Department of Clinical
Psychology, NIMHANS, who conceptualised the study, said addiction to
technology had come as a hindrance in the day-to-day activities of children.

“However, dysfunction in activities was seen not only among those who were
addicted to technology but also adolescents who used technology regularly,”
Dr. Sharma said. He said there was a need for parents as well as school
managements to play a pro-active role in reducing the time spent by
students on using technology.
