The Internet and Education

The Internet represents a globally connected computer network that transfers information between locations through user input. Many innovations have been the cause of many innovations since the advent of the Internet, including social networking, Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP), e-commerce, access to news sites, social networking, e-learning. Computer researchers predict that the Internet will be a dynamic catalyst for worldwide information communication. The time limit and the geographical distance are lost.

The lack of access is one of the first ones. Internet access with sufficient bandwidth is important for the development of information society. The lack of broadband connection hampers the spread of the Internet in education and other living areas in many countries. To realize broadband access, a legal regulatory environment that promotes investment and innovation is essential. This is not just a connection problem. For meaningful visits, schools and individuals can afford, teachers and students need to master digital literacy and other skills to make the most of it. Those teachers and students also need to locate and use local related content.

Without sufficient infrastructure and resources, Internet education will not succeed. As the framework of enabling the Internet Society shows, it requires infrastructure investment, skills and entrepreneurial spirit, and supportive governance of the Internet ecosystem. Today's broadband access is ubiquitous. Population in developed countries, the number of mobile broadband users is four times the population of developed countries. In European countries it is estimated that there are more than 30 fixed broadband users per 100 people, but in sub-Saharan Africa there is less than 1 per 100 people.

Speaking of education and technology, it is not a television but hotline and wired internet. The United Nations Broadband Committee, including celebrities from Carlos Slim to Rwanda President Paul Kagame, indicates that the Internet can "learn opportunities, change the educational environment and finally rethink and transform the educational system" I will. However, allowing children to access the Internet is not very useful for the outcome of education. In countries participating in the International Student Assessment Program (PISA), children using computers suffer from poor test performance. "One laptop per child" selling inexpensive computers in developing countries has been plagued by failure. In Peru, they do not affect math or language test scores. Similar results are also appearing in Nepal.
