Abstract

This study looks at the lives of children after accessing education, the assistance provided, and the efficiency of education at the heart of the classroom. This study aims to answer the following questions about street children: (i) How can they go to school and learn despite the challenges of being street children?; (ii) What programs are available to help them?; (iii) To what extent can these programs be provided to children?; and (iv) When taking to the streets. This study used a qualitative method by conducting interviews with five children aged 10-15 years who came from the city of Tacurong, the Philippines. Some street children continue their education despite all their limitations, some other children take to the streets to find additional money with the knowledge of their parents, and the amount of money they bring home is barely enough or only sufficient, and some programs reach those who are less able. In short, street children are aware of the importance of learning, they have dreams and many are trying to achieve them in any way they can - even if it means risking their lives to beg for alms on the streets. Since this study proves how important education is for these children, this study provides a better scope for us to look at children that are roaming the streets to achieve their dreams and programs.

Abstract

This study aims to determine the impact of social media on students' academic performance in terms of their grade point average (GPA). This study specifically aimed: (1) to determine the percentage of students using social media in terms of doing research work, doing assignments or projects, and studying, (2) to find out the time students spend on social media, (3) to find out the academic performance of students in terms of GPA, (4) to determine if there is a significant relationship between time spent on social media and academic performance in terms of GPA, (5) to determine if there is a significant relationship between usage of social media and academic performance in terms of GPA. A quantitative approach was employed to support this study, particularly the correlation method was utilized. Survey questionnaires were used to solicit data and information from 35 randomly chosen respondents of the study. This study's findings revealed that 80% of students used social media in terms of doing research work, 90% in terms of doing assignments or projects, and 80% in terms of studying. Students' time spent on social media is 1-6 hours, and academic performance in terms of GPA is 90-93. It was also revealed that there is a significant relationship between time spent on social media and academic performance in terms of GPA and a significant relationship between usage of social media and academic performance in terms of GPA. This study can be a bridge for understanding the gap of lack of sufficient information on the effects of social media on high school student
