Social media has become an integral part of Generation Z's life, including elementary school students, who are known as the tech-savvy generation. This study aims to examine Generation Z students' perceptions of the influence of social media on their academic behavior and learning concentration through a literature study approach. Data were collected from various current literature sources and analyzed using thematic analysis methods. The results of the study indicate that social media has a dual impact: platforms such as YouTube and educational applications such as Kahoot increase motivation and access to learning resources, but uncontrolled use causes distraction, procrastination, and decreased learning concentration. The characteristics of Generation Z, such as dependence on technology and the need for digital existence, strengthen the influence of social media on their academic behavior. Therefore, a balanced educational approach is needed to maximize the benefits of social media while minimizing its negative impacts. This study provides insight for educators and parents in managing the use of social media wisely.

 This study aims to compare student learning outcomes between digital media-based learning and conventional methods. The research subjects consisted of two classes: Class VIII E as the control class, which learned through lectures, dictation, and summarizing, and Class VIII F as the experimental class, which used PowerPoint, the Kahoot application, and instructional videos. The study was conducted over four meetings within four weeks. Pretests and posttests were used to measure learning improvement and analyzed using the n-gain formula. The results showed that the average n-gain score of the control class was higher than that of the experimental class. This indicates that although the experimental class used interactive digital media, the control class demonstrated better comprehension of the material, most likely due to the summarizing activity that helped students focus and internalize the content more deeply. These findings suggest that conventional methods involving active student engagement through note-taking and summarizing still have high effectiveness in learning, and the implications may serve as a consideration in designing instructional strategies suited to students' learning characteristics.
