Mobile phones are a dominant form of information and communication technology, with India ranking second in the
global telecommunication market. Most individuals start using mobile phones from the age of 12 and technology
becomes an integral part of their lives. This research studied the impact of mobile phone use on the academic
performance of secondary school students in the Namsai district of Arunachal Pradesh. The study adopted a
descriptive survey research method with a sample size of 40 students from 4 selected schools, each contributing 5
boys and 5 girls by using stratified random sampling technique. A self-constructed scale with four points, referred to
as a Likert-type scale, entitled "Mobile Phone and Students’ Academic Performance of Secondary School
questionnaire, was employed in order to evaluate the utilization of mobile phones as well as the students’ academic
performance of secondary schools. The study's results showed significant impacts of mobile phone use on the
academic performance of students during the COVID-19 pandemic. It pointed out the negative effects of their usage,
such as distractions in academic work, health issues, and time loss. However, the study establishes that appropriate
usage of cellular device can provide benefits in academic performance.
Technology has greatly influenced the educational sector, not only supplemented in-class processes, but also transformed conventional teaching methods. In this context, the Flipgrid application has emerged as a powerful instrument which amplifies students' participation in learning. Particularly in the realm of mobile learning, Flipgrid has gained significant prominence in educational settings. Flipgrid, a versatile and innovative video discussion platform, has been gaining momentum in the realm of education. It delves into the pedagogical foundations of Flipgrid and provides insights into practical applications, demonstrating how it fosters active engagement, fluency, and effective feedback. By combining the benefits of technology and speaking practice, educators can empower students to become confident and proficient communicators in the digital age. Flipgrid is revolutionizing the way we approach oral communication, providing a platform that encourages students to voice their opinions, collaborate with peers, and enhance their speaking abilities. This article explores the role of Flipgrid in enhancing speaking skills among students. Introduction In an era defined by digital transformation, educators are constantly seeking ways to integrate technology into their teaching methods, catering to the needs and expectations of the modern learner. One such technological innovation that has garnered attention is Flipgrid.
The term "collaborative learning" (CL) refers to a broad range of educational strategies including the combined intellectual efforts of teachers and pupils. Students are typically required to work in groups of two or more, looking together for understanding, answers, or meanings or producing a product. People will be able to collaborate with someone far away just as readily as they would with someone in the same room thanks to the usage of ICT in CL. E-collaboration tool enable users to contribute a variety of abilities to group projects that remove time, distance, and resource limitations. Face-to-face engagement is still important, but ICT can enhance it by enabling communication at any time and from any location. ICT functions for group work coordination, tools for tracking progress and providing feedback, libraries of solutions and best practises, as well as meta data, are all available as collaborative technologies. In order to facilitate collaborative learning in all areas of education, the following technological tools can be used: wiki, online forums, chat, video conferencing, email, blogging, learning management systems, virtual classrooms, Sticky notes, etc.
The term ÄJerk Technology (JT) is widely used to get the attention of the learners and provides the
active, lively, interactive classroom atmosphere. Jerk Technology breaks out the boredom way of
traditional teaching by implementing the active learners. Each learner is unique and the way of
learning is divergent because of an Individual difference (Shobana.S, 2014). In teaching – learning
process, attention plays a vital role which the source for transferring the knowledge. The overall
outcomes of the study show that the effect of Jerk can use easily without any strain for teaching
grammar.The main purpose of the study is to find out the ÄEffect of Jerk Technology in Teaching of
Grammar among Higher Secondary School StudentsÇ. The researchers adopted a single group pre
and post - test design. The sample for the present study is of 32 pupils selected from the Government

The term ‘virtual learning environment’ (VLE) refers to the
components in which learners and tutors participate in online
interactions of several kinds, comprising online learning (Hall,
I. & Higgins, S, 2005) [10]
. A virtual learning environment
(VLE) is a set of teaching and learning tools designed to
enhance a student's learning experience by including
computers and the Internet in the learning process. The
principal components of a VLE package include curriculum
mapping, student tracking, online support for both teacher and
student, electronic communication (e-mail, threaded
discussions, chat, Web publishing), and Internet links to
outside curriculum resources. E-learning refers to the use of
electronic media and information and communication
technologies (ICT) in education. E-learning is widely
enclosure of all kinds of educational technology in learning
and teaching. E-learning is enclosure of, and is widely
synonymous with technology-enhanced learning (TEL),
computer-based training (CBT), multimedia learning,
computer-assisted instruction, computer-based instruction
(CBI) or internet based training (IBT), web-based training
(WBT), online education, computer-aided instruction (CAI),
virtual education, m-learning, virtual learning environments
(VLE) (which are also called learning platforms), and digital
educational collaboration.
Need and Significance
Every individual has the ability to learn. Every individual is
different but they can all learn. Not all individuals learn in the
same way and it should, therefore, be taught in different ways.
Universally, Mathematics is taught as one of the subjects in
Schools, Colleges and Universities. Mathematics is considered
as the queen of all Sciences (Latham, P, 2002) [16]
. It is an
essential subject taught to the students to develop the skills of
reasoning, logical thinking and problem solving. Majority of
the pupils feel that Mathematics is a difficult subject and it can
be understood and followed only by intelligent students. Those
who fail in the subject develop hatred towards it. At present
majority of the Mathematics teachers follow traditional
methods of instruction and learners tend to be passive
listeners. Due to revaluation of technology, teacher may use
innovative online tool for mathematics teaching (Kent P,
2006) [15]
. Hence, Scribblar is effective innovative online tool
for teaching.
Variables
Higher Secondary School Students as dependent variable and
mathematics teaching using Scribblar as independent variable.
Objectives
To give demo class to higher secondary school students
about Scribblar for Learning Mathematics.
To find out the higher secondary school students
perception towards Scribblar for learning mathematics.
Hypothesis
Whether higher secondary school students have positive or
negative perception towards Scribblar for learning
mathematics.
Methodology
Survey Method is used for gathering of the data regarding
current conditions. The investigator wanted to collect the
perception towards scribblar from Higher Secondary School
Students.

Conclusion
Information and Communication Technologies to support new
pedagogical approaches for learners. In the traditional
classroom, the potential for learner-instructor and learner-
learner is very high, but instructors have largely ignored this
mandate for change and continue to employ the lecture mode
as the predominant method of instruction (Beeland, W.D,
2001) [2]
. In the virtual classroom, on the other hand,
technology supports collaborative learning, heterogeneous
groupings, problem solving and higher order thinking skills-
educational process that a lecture format cannot facilitate. All
the dimensions (Online whiteboard, measurement and
academic achievement Information access, communication)
students have responded positive perception towards scribblar.
Majority of the students have positive perception towards
scribblar for Learning Mathematics.
