Academic Success, Failure and Resilience in Youth Education in a Digitized Society

Abstract

The digitized society imposes dynamic in the education of young people from the perspective of free time, but also of the way in which one's own resources and responsibilities are managed. Resilience becomes a necessary skill for managing the stress associated with academic failure (Walsh, 2016b), but also for adapting to the conditions necessary to achieve academic success (Sony & Mekoth, 2022). The purpose of this theoretical analysis is to describe the role of resilience for academic success and failure. It was found that factors such as self-efficacy, self-esteem, parental support, mentoring, but also educational programs that contribute to development of management skills, act in opposition to risk factors (Zimmerman, 2013).
