Literature review
According to the Telecommunications Authority of Trinidad and Tobago (2013), the Digital Divide Survey which was done in 2013, found that the population of Trinidad and Tobago was at 1,328,019. It also highlighted that 70.51 % of the people living in Trinidad and Tobago have access to a computer. Further, out of this percentage, 44.6 % have access to the internet and 80.1% of these people utilise the internet (2013). This information further confirms the assumption that internet services and computer resources are being used in the homes of the nationals of this country. As such, the students who attend the schools should have access to these resources at home and are using internet services. The internet can be used as an instrumental learning environment for students. Odabasi (1998) indicated that this can be seen by the interaction of distance learners with their peers and teachers (Istifci, Lomidazde, & Demiray, 2011).
Caribbean Ideas commissioned a survey and they found that 42% of the young people between the ages 18-35 spend more than 11 hours a week consuming digital media (Guardian Newspapers, 2013). In their assessment, they have documented that 97.3% of the participants have Facebook accounts as opposed to Twitter (33.8%), Youtube (30.3%), Instagram (10.3) and Pinterest (1.4%). This just confirms that Facebook is the more popular social network site among the masses (Guardian Newspaper, 2013).

    Apps like Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter, Facebook, and Buzzfeed can cause a decrease in the overall products of students’ works and an increase in the amount of time needed to complete the product because of the incessant notifications that show up on an individual’s screen every five minutes. In a 2011 study conducted by Wade Jacobsen and Renata Forste on “Academic and Social Outcomes of Electronic Media Use Among College Students,” they concluded from more than 1,000 undergraduates that 2.45 hours are spent on the internet, and an hour is usually spent watching television. High school students spend roughly about 2.3 hours on technology and media everyday, and as new media platforms come out, more time is spent on them. The temptations of answering someone or looking at who liked your picture on Instagram causes great disruptions in studying and workplaces. When a student’s final product is not up to the standards or is incomplete, it can severely affect their grades in school.
