Analysis of The Allocation of Time For The Use of Gadgets For The Cognitive Development Of Elementary School Children

Oktavia Ika Rahmadania

Abstract


This study aims to analyze the relationship between the allocation of time for the use of gadgets and the cognitive development of elementary school-age children. Using a descriptive qualitative approach through the literature study method, data were obtained from various accredited national journals and relevant scientific articles. The results of the study show that the wise and limited use of gadgets can have a positive impact on children's cognitive aspects, such as improving memory, logical thinking skills, and understanding concepts through interactive media. On the other hand, excessive use without supervision risks causing concentration disorders, decreased problem-solving skills, and weak social interaction. This study recommends allocating time to use gadgets between 1-2 hours per day with parental or teacher assistance. The conclusion of this study emphasizes the importance of collaboration between parents and educators in managing the use of gadgets to support children's cognitive growth and development optimally.
