DEPENDENCY ON CELL PHONE (INTERNET) AND ITS IMPACT TO THE LEARNING PROCESS AND TO THE PHYSICAL ACTIVITY AMONG SPORTS STUDENTS IN AAB COLLEGE

Abstract

The purpose of this study with questionnaires was to ascertain how dependent are students, namely students of Physical Education and Sports, on cell phone and internet, what is the negative effect of the excessive use of the cell phone in their learning process and how much do they practice sports out of the curriculum programme in the current context of an educational institution. Methods: The study involved 100 students of the Physical Education and Sports branch in AAB College, male and female, with different ages. Spending too much time with electroinic devices, for over 4 hours or more, is an indicator that students are heavily dependent on cell phone and internet, and hence they pay little or no importance to learning. 21% of them say, I do not feel like learning as soon as I get connected to phone over internet. And how much students are committed to sports - is shown by the results that students are very committed to sports even out of the curriculum programme with 35.39% of responses
