Abstract

It is well-known that TikTok is a cutting-edge academic aid that significantly improves students' educational experiences thanks to its dynamic and entertaining platform. Initially perceived as purely an entertainment platform, TikTok has developed into an important instructional resource that can greatly improve students' learning outcomes. The aim of this literature review is to examine and consolidate the existing body of knowledge regarding TikTok's adverse impacts on students’ educational journey. This review explores how TikTok affects students' lives in several areas, including academic achievement. The findings of the collected evaluations in different literature reviews show both TikTok's positive and, at the same time, some negative features while also shedding light on the platform's possible risks and effects on students. Students may stay interested and involved in academics while gaining crucial digital literacy skills by integrating TikTok into their educational journey. It is recommended that teachers improve their pedagogical approach and reach a wider audience by sharing creative teaching techniques, classroom experiences, and motivational content on TikTok.
