Abstract:

The research discusses how Digital technology and education are more closely related. The ability to teach students online and over great distances may continue to grow in popularity. While there are several benefits to this online learning method, there are also numerous drawbacks. The most prevalent drawbacks of the digital learning process for students include excessive screen time and poor mental health outcomes. The way students access material and collaborate on projects has completely altered due to the introduction of the online digital learning process into the traditional education system. As with anything, there are drawbacks to the online learning process, and this one is no exception. Prolonged screen use might disrupt Students’ sleep patterns, which is detrimental to their health. This may directly impact students’ academic performance. The digital screen’s blue light throws off the sleep cycle, causing mood swings and heightened susceptibility. Students’ focus and attention spans get shorter due to increased screen use. The research discusses the content theory that helps to better understand the topic. The research has also used the primary quantitative data collection process for the data collection process. The study also used SPSS analysis to analyze the data.
