ABSTRACT
In today’s world where the Internet has experienced tremendous growth, social networking sites have become highly significant in students' lives. The aim of the study was to analyze the impact of social media on students. To achieve this, the survey research method was used. Three research questions guided the study. Research findings showed that a great number of students had access to the internet. Survey technique, interview, and online observation were the research methods used. Findings show that students spend more time on these sites. It was also found that virtual interaction taking place in these sites has been just a supplement to real life interaction. To this end, the researcher recommended that sites should be created for educational purposes as well. This is to create a balance between social networking and academic activities of students to avoid setbacks in the academic performance of the students.
