The creation of this dissertation has an aim to analyse and discuss the impacts of time spent on social media by current students through the operation of electronic time management. Its objective is to reveal a variety of factors that have occurred in relation to social media and its growth, along with the different impacts it has had on students and their surroundings. Previous research has primarily focused on the specific fields such as the impacts and the growth of social media. However, this research project uses electronic time management to fully investigate the time period that six individuals spend on social media during a seven-day observation, and the numerous impacts that follow in relation to this. Primary research collection such as this will determine recent and relevant results, displaying an element of uniqueness that can be discussed and evaluated thoroughly in further detail. In order to encounter a successful conclusion, all data collection will need to be assessed and evaluated, specifying particular facts and figures that can reveal the exact amount of time the recorded students have spent on social networking sites, and the effects that have subsequently occurred.
