It is the mother of civilizations, of arts and of sciences. Technology has certainly changed the
way we live. It has impacted different facets of life and redefined living. Undoubtedly,
technology plays an important role in every sphere of life. Several manual tasks can be
automated, thanks to technology. Also, many complex and critical processes can be carried out
with ease and greater efficiency with the help of modern technology. Thanks to the application of
technology, living has changed and it has changed for better. Technology has revolutionized the
field of education. The importance of technology in schools cannot be ignored. In fact, with the
onset of computers in education, it has become easier for teachers to impart knowledge and for
students to acquire it. The use of technology has made the process of teaching and learning all
According to the latest insights as to how exactly modern students of today prefer to use
technology and how does their learning get an impact if they use technology, it was revealed that
the use of modern equipment technology and tools, the learning and interactivity of students
increases. They also find it much more interactive, as well as full of interesting areas, when aided
by technology. The transfer of knowledge becomes very easy and convenient, as well as
effective. What this means is that our minds now tend to work faster when assisted with the use
of modern technology, be it any part of life, here we talk about education. The reliance and
dependence of such an innovation, that simply makes life an easy, smooth journey, is completely

Internet channels for everyday use among students at the University. Student engagement in
the use of gadgets is usually online through mobile phones, computers, tablets and laptops.

The internet has grown in importance by many folds, over the process of decade. Its
importance in the education world can now never be undermined. Despite the chances of fraud
and drawbacks, the use of the internet is like a blessing for students. Today, the internet is
something that is present in almost everything we use. From television to gaming consoles,
and our phones, the internet is literally everywhere. The use of the internet allows students to
find amazing convenience, they can find various kinds of help, tutorials, and other kinds of
assisting material which could be used to academically improve and enhance their learning.

Technology advancements have changed the students' study habits dramatically through
the years as well as affected the teachers' method of presenting information. Gone were the days
when students have to go to the libraries to do the research or taking down notes during classes.
The access to internet has provided public information available to students at the comfort of
their homes wherein they don't need to read books or travel that far to get needed details.
Through the internet, they can visit museums and various libraries across the globe while at
home. Moreover, the availability of technology has also quickened the acquisition of information
through the net by just typing a key word like mathematical calculations. Acquired information
can also be shared among their classmates in a more efficient ways. Studying has become far
more flexible for students as they can choose to learn and present information in their own ways.
Learning has also widened its scope through documentaries or tutorials on the net. While,
technology also helped educators make young students understand the morals and ethics of using
online contents, and the responsibility of using these educational tools, there are setbacks having
children too exposed with the technology. They tend to play anywhere or anytime they want.
Early exposures of children to technology may also cause some medical concerns. Lastly, too
much contact of the child with this technology makes impact on their writing skills – resulting to
reading, outside lecture hours, in order to become expert on a particular topic . Hence, study
habits can be good if they permit to a student to excel or can be bad if they lead a student to get
mediocre grades. To sum up, a good process of studying does not consist only in memorizing
facts but in recalling when necessary these facts, and related information, and to use them in an
intelligent way. Therefore, study habits influence students’ ability of learning and technologies
devices play a crucial role among factors which can condition study habits. A recent study
commissioned by McGraw-Hill Education has revealed that the use of mobile devices and online
activities can help the process of studying but, on the other hand, they can influence it badly.
According to this survey, online activities represent the main distraction for almost 40% of the
students interviewed; moreover, more than 50% of the interviewed affirmed to use laptop, tablets
and phones to text friends when they are studying. On the other hand, the same survey has
pointed out that students take equally advantage by using technologies (mostly smartphones than
tablets or computer), for their studying. Moreover, the use of digital tools for studying permit
them to save time that they employ above all for sleeping. Different authors in literature have
stressed on the studying benefits deriving by the use of mobile devices for learning, because
these could lead to an improved access to education with better educational outcomes. Mobile
phones represent an important resource to improve students literary and numeracy skills, and
they also permit both independent and collaborative learning experiences leading to a
personalized learning process. Moreover, cell-phones are useful to support lifelong learning that
occurs spontaneously in several settings not only represented by the formal ones. These benefits
are balanced by the negative effects of the improper use of these tools and of psychological
disorders that can be related to their use [4]. The risk, especially important in young people who
represent the largest users, is to address all human relations in a “surreal”, and that the hyper-use
to manage relationships, emotions and states of loneliness turns into a real addiction. Another
possible risk associated to the excessive use of mobile phone is the exponential growth in the
levels of stress and anxiety due in particular to the fact that it can be accessed and controlled at
all times and to the possibility to just reach out and control other people in any place and time.
The excessive use of cellular phones has led to the development of specific disorders as the
“disconnection syndrome” or the “syndrome of ringing or vibration ghost”. Other tools whose
prolonged and incorrect use could cause a sense of addiction are personal computer connected to
Internet and TV. Their incorrect use could also affect studying in college students. Some data
about technology use in Italian adolescents (11, 13 and 15 years old children) has been provided
by the Italian HBSC Report as part of the article on the risk of sedentary lifestyle. However, no
information about study habits and technology use among Italian university population are
available. The objective of this paper is to present the results of the “Sportello Salute Giovani”
project in order to analyze the approach to study, the use of technologies and how the later can
affect study habits in university students. Poscia, A., Frisicale, E. M., Parente, P., Milia, D. I. L.,
