Introduction to Evidence in Reports

Recent studies show that over 70% of teenagers prefer online communication to face-to-face interaction. This trend is highlighted by surveys conducted across multiple schools, indicating a significant shift in social behaviour. Experts suggest that the rise in social media usage correlates with decreased face-to-face contact, impacting social skills development.

The report concludes that educators should incorporate digital literacy into the curriculum to better prepare students for modern social environments.
