Effects of Technological Devices on Disruptive Behaviour of Students

The objective of the research is to investigate and analyze the effects of the growing use of technological devices (Smartphones, Tablets, and Laptops) on the disruptive behavior of students in the classroom in Pakistan. In order to perform comprehensive data analysis, along with qualitative data collection, I also performed a systematic literature review following grounded theory methodology. In the first part, I did a comprehensive analysis of the existing literature to understand what has been done so far. Then, I conducted semi-structured interviews with both teachers and students. This study will explore the impact of personal devices on disruptive behavior in secondary school classrooms, focusing on the hypothesis that students continue to use phones in class despite bans, leading to disruptions. This will be done using a systematic literature review and qualitative research methods. While previous studies have explored the impacts of mobile phones and disruptive behavior separately, this study aims to examine the combined influence of technological device use on disruptive behaviors among students in secondary schools in Pakistan. As Pakistan is a developing country, schools do not teach students how to use technological devices at a young age, and parents also lack awareness regarding this. Creating awareness about how to use technological devices can help resolve this issue.
