influence on college students.
1. Introduction
With the rapid development of economy and technology, the mobile phone
industry has changed dramatically and generated the smartphone. The advent of
smartphones has dramatically changed the way traditional communications and
social contact. Nowadays, smart phones are used widely and they are popular
among young people. One of the most significant subjects for debate currently
taking place is the explosion in the use of social networking by college students.
The reason for this is that smartphones have entered college campuses and been
used widely by college students. A survey conducted by Indian students at Ball
State University found that the number of students who own a smartphone has
more than doubled in three years - from 27% in 2009 to 69% in 2012 (Hingorani &
Woodard, 2012). This number is expected to keep on growing in the coming years
(Abir S. Al-Harrasi & Ali H. Al-Badi, 2014).
Nowadays smartphones have several features that are comparable to an
average computer. They can also engage students in far more dynamic ways than
a laptop or a tablet computer(Hingorani&Woodard,2012).People can use phones
to surf the Internet, listen to music ,watch videos ,play games online ,update their
personal micro blog, and upload their latest pictures at any place and any time. It
seems that smartphones have already become an indispensable part in students’
daily life. Using of smartphones has a lot of impacts on college students in many
aspects, and these effects are both good and bad. The influence of smartphones
on college students is mainly reflected in networking, physical and mental health,
learning and teaching of university. These effects will lead to many serious results
in their campus life.
Many studies have been carried out to investigate the impact of
smartphones on college students. Although the literature covers a wide variety of
such studies, this study will focus on single aspect, such as social networking and
their learning. This paper will focus on many aspects in which college students are
influenced and analyze how does it affects them and at the same time analyze its
positivity and negativity. There has been a lot of tragedy about smartphones in
society and campus. The purpose of this paper is to hope that the use of smart
phones on campus will attract more attention.

The widely use of smart phones brings huge positive influences to students’
life and study.
