Abstract

In this era, digital education technology, information and communication technologies have changed learning. WhatsApp group education has emerged because it can take place anytime and everywhere as compared to an offline approach. Students are slowly gaining confidence in digital education, but there are also drawbacks, associated with cheating and misuse of educational information. The purpose of this study is to explore the utilization of WhatsApp in education. This study is a systematic review of the utilization of WhatsApp in education based on 10 papers published on the topic between 2014 and 2020. The results reveal that students are positive about utilising WhatsApp groups for learning. This paper is an attempt to bring conceptual clarity about utilization of WhatsApp groups in education and to suggest technical security measures that can be adopted.
