- ItemImpact of Social Networking Media Usage on the Academic Performance of Students of Redeemer's University.(International Journal of Engineering Research and Development, 2017-10) Oguntunde, BosedeOnline social networking has taken the centre stage among the many services offered by the Internet. Young people and students of higher institutions in particular have taken keen interest in interactions on the social media. In view of perceived decline in students' academic performances, pundits have suggested taht unbridled indulgences in social media could have a major role in their poor performances. in this study, we investigate the impact of the social media networking on the academic performances of students of the Redeemer's University. A sample f 200 students were drawn across departments on proportional basis. A structured questionaire was administered, processed and analysed. From the results, it was discovered that only the size of friendship on the social media has significant impacts on students' performances. Factors such as daily time spent and hourly time spent on social media have no signifcant effect on the students' academic performance.
