A REVIEW ON THE INFLUENCE OF DIGITAL AGE AND EXCESSIVE CURRICULUM ON EMOTION

This review examines the impact of the digital age and excessive curricula on emotional development of students, highlighting both the opportunities and challenges posed by digital technologies and overburdened curricula. While digital devices and resources have the potential to enhance learning experiences by providing interactive, engaging educational content and facilitating access to information, their excessive use can also lead to negative emotional effects, such as increased stress, anxiety, and dependency, hindering students' emotional well-being and development. This is a narrative type of review paper in which previous data is collected from Scopus and google scholars. Additionally, the review underscores the detrimental impact of an
intense, overloaded curriculum, which can result in high levels of stress, anxiety, and emotional exhaustion, leaving students feeling overwhelmed and disengaged from the learning process, and negatively affecting their overall mental health and well-being.
By drawing on current literature and data, the study offers a comprehensive understanding of the intricate relationship between digital technology, curricular intensity, and emotional well-being, advocating for educational reforms that prioritize
a balanced approach, integrating digital tools and designing curricula to support not only academic achievement but also the holistic development and emotional health of students.
