This paper explores the phenomenon of "Social Media Hangover," which is mental fatigue, emotional distress, and social detachment resulting from excessive use. This can lead to anxiety, reduced productivity, and diminished emotional well-being. The study identifies gaps in understanding this phenomenon and emphasizes the need for sustainable solutions. It provides actionable insights into promoting healthier social media usage, including digital mindfulness, digital detoxes, and educational programs. The paper urges individuals, educators, and policymakers to address the implications of Social Media Hangover proactively and encourages further research to explore effective interventions.

This paper aims to use an exploration of ages in biblical texts and discuss its philosophical and theological significance, as well as the questions on aging and concepts of immortality as presented in the biblical text. Altogether, by means of complex quantitative and qualitative data analysis, the research advances knowledge about life span representations and age theological meaning in biblical contexts.

The rich contributions of participants who took the one month-long an intercollegiate online certificate course “Social Media for Academics,” offered in September 2024 by the PG & Research Department of English, St. Joseph’s College (Autonomous), have resulted in this collection of papers. This anthology is a proof of the creative thought and scholarly investigation that thrive when digital technology and education come together. Scholars, students, and educators examine various viewpoints on how social media is changing pedagogical techniques, digital identities, and academic practices in these 24 perceptive research papers. Every submission exhibits a distinct interaction with these topics, illuminating the dynamic function of social media within educational settings. This anthology’s emphasis on interdisciplinary dialogues, which invites participants from a range of academic backgrounds to consider the significant influence of social media on education and professional growth, is one of its distinguishing features. By combining many points of view, we can rethink academic limits and unearth new opportunities. The articles in this volume are organized to offer a comprehensive examination of the intersections between social media and academia. The objectives of the articles focus on how digital tools are reshaping classroom experiences and student engagement. To explores the multifaceted nature of digital identity and its role in professional growth and empowerment. Moving forward, to addresses the rapid changes and ethical dilemmas arising from the integration of social media into academic practices. Also, it examines how digital platforms are fostering language acquisition and inclusivity in education. Finally, it tries to bring the anthology to a close by reflecting on the shifts in academic and literary identities in the digital age. As the project’s authors, we would like to express our sincere gratitude to each and every participant for their curiosity and commitment. Your academic writings have shed light on the dynamic and changing relationship between academia and social media. With all of our heart, we hope that this anthology will encourage more conversations, joint endeavours, and more investigation into the ways that digital tools are changing the face of education.

Scholarship is collated in this paper on how students use social media and how it affects their engagement attitudinally, digitally, and in terms of ethics. The paper also looks into the advancement with regard to application of new reliance on social media by students and scholars and its inclusion in the universities' syllabus (academic surroundings). This article presents real cases where social media has facilitated the circulation of ideas and alimentary principles of academic collaboration. The research results deal with a growing concern: the use of social networks in professional life, more specifically the specific attributes that open new opportunities for the mobilisation of knowledge within disciplines and professional groups.

Halo CMEs are crucial because they have the ability to generate geomagnetic storms that impair Earth's technological infrastructure. To identify and analyse Earth-directed halo CMEs, the study uses data from several solar observatories, including the Kodaikanal Solar Observatory, as well as satellite missions such as Richardson & Cane ICMEs Catalogue SOHO and STEREO. Analysing the physical properties of these CMEs, such as speed, angular width, and mass. Assessing the Geo-effectiveness of these CMEs by correlating their properties with geomagnetic storm indices. Identifying the distribution of Earth-directed halo CMEs during Solar Cycles 23 and 24. The results show differences in the frequency and features of Earth-directed halo CMEs across the two solar cycles, shedding light on the changing nature of solar activity and its consequences for space weather prediction. The study also emphasizes the importance of continual solar observation and advanced data processing approaches in identifying and managing the threats posed by solar events to current technological infrastructure.
