The Smartphone Effects on Kindergarten Children: Analysis of Creativity and Imagination
Journal Title: International Journal of Social Science And Human Research - Year 2024, Vol 7, Issue 06
Abstract
Smartphones are simple to use, even for kindergarten students. Smartphones include programs that can entice children and help them spend their time wisely. Children who are unrestricted in their use of smartphones by their parents or caretakers are more likely to exhibit negative behaviors. The majority of the literature on children's smartphone use primarily focuses on its negative impacts, however a few also acknowledge its positive aspects. This research is critical because today's children are growing up in an age of technological advancement. This study aims to provide adults, parents, caregivers, and teachers with valuable insights on effectively managing smartphones to foster positivity and creativity in children. This study sought to observe and describe the impact of smartphone use on the creativity and imagination of kindergarten students. This study will utilize descriptive and drawing analysis methods. The participants will consist of twenty-four drawings created by kindergarten children. Twelve of these drawings will be selected as examples for this study. This study demonstrated a beneficial correlation between children's use of smartphones and their creativity and imagination. It is demonstrated by the results of fourteen distinct types of things drawn from twenty-four gathered drawings. This work will make major contributions to fields such as communication, psychology, and education. This study recommends the involvement of adults, parents, family members, caretakers, and teachers in children's everyday lives to encourage and aid them in discovering their potential in order to develop their imagination and creativity.
