Abstract

This study examines the impact of the habituation curriculum on enhancing students’ social skills in the digital era. With the increasing reliance on digital technology, students face challenges in developing interpersonal communication and empathy. Therefore, examining how a habituation-based curriculum can bridge this gap is essential. The primary aim of this research is to evaluate the effectiveness of the habituation curriculum in promoting more effective social interactions among students within the context of modern educational environments. The study employs a mixed-methods approach, combining qualitative and quantitative data collection techniques. To gain insight into the impact of the habituation curriculum, researchers conducted surveys and interviews with educators to gather their perspectives on the topic. The findings indicate that habituation practices significantly improve students’ ability to engage in meaningful offline and online social interactions. The research emphasizes the importance of incorporating habituation strategies into the curriculum to address the challenges posed by digital communication platforms. It supports the development of well-rounded, socially competent individuals. This study offers valuable implications for educators seeking to adapt teaching methods to contemporary needs.
