Description
The COVID-19 pandemic necessitated a shift toward continuous digital connectivity in secondary education, profoundly impacting Generation Z learners. This quantitative study (n=526) examines the relationship between in-class digital dependency, non-academic multitasking, school engagement, and subjective well-being among Romanian high school students during emergency remote teaching. Findings indicate that elevated synchronous digital dependency correlates with increased non-academic screen behaviors, affecting academic engagement and emotional states. The study concludes that mitigating non-academic multitasking is crucial for effective hybrid pedagogy and recommends fostering digital self-management skills in students.
