 INTORDUCTION:-

Throughout the world, Marketer and Consumer Buying Behavior (CBB) are
changing the face of education. It has been argued that the, if a marketer can
identify CBB, he or she will be in better position to target products and services at
them. Just as computers are about to replace books (some would argue this has
already happened) as our main source of information globally, computers will
come to occupy the central position in education once occupied by books. The
Internet was initially developed by the US Defense Department and was at one
time only popular within the research community. Its ability to share information
across organizations and to interact with people at low cost has gradually enticed
other sectors to explore its use. Today, the Internet has an impact on every facet of
our life including business operation, education, communication, entertainment,
social activity, shopping, and so on. Many universities around the world are
expanding their investment in information technology (IT), and specifically the
Internet, and are actively promoting Internet use. From a student’s perspective,
learning using online tools is multidimensional. It may entail a multitude of
variables such as prior student knowledge of IT, experience in its usage,
perceptions of IT usage, computer competencies, and background demographics.
The Internet is one of the greatest recent advancement in the world of information
technology and has become a useful instrument that has fostered the process of
making the world a global village. The Internet provides several opportunities for
the academia. It is a mechanism for information dissemination and a medium for
collaborative interaction between individuals and their computers without regard
for geographic limitation of space. The word Internet is derived from two words:
“international” and “network”. The Internet therefore can be defined as an
international computer network of information available to the public through
modem links so internet is a worldwide system of linked computers networks.
The Internet is the world’s largest and most widely used network. It is an
international network of networks that is a collection of hundreds of thousands of
private and public networks all over the world

This is an era of information technology. Pakistan is also trying to cope with

this IT revolution. In this regards special steps are being taken and efforts are
being made to spread internet all over the country.

According to a recent statement of our science & IT minister that now internet
is available in about 800 cities of Pakistani compared with India who have
internet facility in just 600 cities. This is considered as a great achievement and it
is. But here is a question that availability of internet all over the country at low
rates guaranteed development? Do our people know the use of internet for
development purpose? It is a fact that the ratio of informative and educational
sites in the total is very low. 12,000,000 internet users as of December, 2006;
7.2% of the population, according to PTA.
Structure of the System in Pakistan:-

Education is organized into five levels: primary (grades one through five); middle (grades
six through eight); high (grades nine and ten, culminating in matriculation); intermediate
(grades eleven and twelve, leading to an F.A. diploma in arts or F.S. science; and
university programs leading to undergraduate and advanced degrees. Preparatory classes
(kachi, or nursery) were formally incorporated into the system in 1988 with the Seventh
Five-Year Plan.
Academic and technical education institutions are the responsibility of the federal
Ministry of Education, which coordinates instruction through the intermediate level.
Above that level, a designated university in each province is responsible for coordination
of instruction and examinations. In certain cases, a different ministry may oversee
specialized programs. Universities enjoy limited autonomy; their finances are overseen
by a University Grants Commission, as in Britain.
Teacher-training workshops are overseen by the respective provincial education
ministries in order to improve teaching skills. However, incentives are severely
lacking, and, perhaps because of the shortage of financial support to education,
few teachers participate. Rates of absenteeism among teachers are high in general,
inducing support for community-coordinated efforts promoted in the Eighth Five-
Year Plan (1993-98).
In 1991 there were 87,545 primary schools, 189,200 primary school teachers, and
7,768,000 students enrolled at the primary level, with a student-to-teacher ratio of
forty-one to one. Just over one-third of all children of primary school age were
enrolled in a school in 1989. There were 11,978 secondary schools, 154,802
secondary school teachers, and 2,995,000 students enrolled at the secondary level,
with a student-to- teacher ratio of nineteen to one.
Primary school dropout rates remained fairly consistent in the 1970s and 1980s, at
just over 50 percent for boys and 60 percent for girls. The middle school dropout
rates for boys and girls rose from 22 percent in 1976 to about 33 percent in 1983.
However, a noticeable shift occurred in the beginning of the 1980s regarding the
post primary dropout rate: whereas boys and girls had relatively equal rates (14
percent) in 1975, by 1979-- just as Zia initiated his government's Islamization
program--the dropout rate for boys was 25 percent while for girls it was only 16
percent. By 1993 this trend had dramatically reversed, and boys had a dropout
rate of only 7 percent compared with the girls' rate of 15 percent.
The Seventh Five-Year Plan envisioned that every child five years and above
would have access to either a primary school or a comparable, but less
comprehensive, mosque school. However, because of financial constraints, this
goal was not achieved.
In drafting the Eighth Five-Year Plan in 1992, the government therefore reiterated
the need to mobilize a large share of national resources to finance education. To
improve access to schools, especially at the primary level, the government sought
to decentralize and democratize the design and implementation of its education
strategy. To give parents a greater voice in running schools, it planned to transfer
control of primary and secondary schools to NGOs. The government also
intended to gradually make all high schools, colleges, and universities
autonomous, although no schedule was specified for achieving this ambitious
goal. hi, or nursery) were formally incorporated into the system in 1988 with the

PROBLEM STATEMENT:-

Pakistan is under developing country and is lack of

planning in different sectors which directly link to the success and betterment for
the country.
The main area which needs to be focused is the new and improved method of
education. The population of Pakistan is roughly between 167 million and
unemployment rate is getting high day by day. The purpose of a proper education
is to help a child become an independent adult Pakistan needs to implement high
specialized knowledge or try to impose the World Wide Web in education sector
as well as in daily life. At that point of time Pakistan does not have advanced
equipment like computer technology professionals this is one of the main reason
why Pakistan is still facing problem is education sector. And if we see in our daily
life when ever we buy any thing we don’t have much information awareness
about any thing what is food what is wrong just because we don’t have proper
knowledge of using WWW.

OBJECTIVE OF STUDY:-

The main and important objective of this study

would be improvement in education system get awareness in common man. Www
itself a new world of information, entertainment, and everything and is far just on
one click. By introducing www in specialized education system let’s say in
universities where one gets knowledge that leads towards his career. World Wide
Web gives a unique power that differentiates literate from illiterate. It shows
everything is possible in this world nothing is difficult NASA the touch the moon
because the know how to use World Wide Web efficiently. Pakistan has talent
have everything it is just a unique push in education sector by implementing the
internet with education that help is research of any kind of subject with proof by
different engineer and doc they had been working on that. It make them realized
that this is the time of globalization what others are doing and where we stand.
Lets take the education sector in Rawalpindi has more the 6 universities offering
different kind of education but the their primary objective would be using
specialized knowledge during studies (internet) and they know the effect of that as
well
Now if we see in our daily life we come across in different situation where we
need some choices some help any information regarding any product and services
if we just use mind we have availability of miracle know as world wide web it
gives different alternatives different choices for everything.
Now lets talk about entertainment life is getting dull bore day by day same thing
same routine different tensions that makes life tough life needs some relaxation.
The specific objectives were to:

Identify attitude of students toward IT.

Determine the purpose of internet usage for students.

Find out the intensity of internet usage by students.

Evaluate that whether the use of internet improve the academic performance of
students or not

SIGNIFICANCE OF STUDY:-

This study could be beneficial for student as well as for institutions. The valuable
feedback from 500 students should help student to realize the benefits of internet
in their education. Institutes can invest more in internet facilities to enhance the
performance of their students and produce better results. Based on Pakistan’s
experience, international readers may take advantage from this study work.

Impact of computer technologies on learning outcomes

A number of studies have explored the impact of computer-based

technologies on learning outcomes and reported on some improvements to
student learning outcomes.

Denton and Manus (1995) who analyzed standardized test scores of students
from 8 schools using computer technologies found that only some schools
showed improvements but this was not evident in all subject areas.

Follansbee et al (1996) found that students with online access produced

Better projects in terms of presentation, integration of different perspectives
and presentation of a full picture.
Chessler et al (1998) found that teachers reported a higher quality of work
from students who used laptops than those who didn’t.
Tierney et al (1996) found that over time students who use computers begin
to explore and express ideas in fairly sophisticated ways using graphical and
other non-linear forms.
Williams (1999) found that sixth graders who worked in a hyper media
supported context were able to solve problems more effectively than those
who didn’t.
Richards (1996) who surveyed teachers found that they reported on
improvements in their students reading, writing and team skills as a result of
using computers.
After implementing WWW in education all the passed out from the universities
would be determined toward their goal / aims. The education and power of World
Wide Web have taught them how how to survive in this difficult world. It gives
extra knowledge to deal with different environment you can see the things in a
broader way in the depth/ root of the problem then you chose the strategy against
that.

“It’s a good saying that you have education you are like a solider without gun
have knowledge of World wide web is like a complete solider with
everything”

World Wide Web is an essential part in every stage of life it put the brightness in
the person.
Using internet in daily life gives extra benefits to any one because world is very
large lot of things we come across we don’t what exactly it is for knowing all
these things which seems impossible in this world make that possible by World
wide web regarding information etc
One of the big advantage of World Wide Web in your life is it won’t let you bore
it is a good way entertainment fun you can watch the movies songs chat a lot of
thing it has to entertain you with in this fast moving world.

PART II
LITRATURE REVIEW

Advancement in technology brings major impacts on education (Underwood

2003).Many universities
around the world are expanding their investment in information technology (IT),
and specifically the Internet, and are actively promoting Internet use in university
education (Al-Nuaimy, Zhang & Noble, 2001; Bargeron, Grudin, Gupta
&Sanocki, 2002; Chandler, 2002; Chen & Paul, 2003; Dringus, 1999; Huang et al,
2004;Kinshuk, 2002; Owston, 2000; Pahl, 2003; Richardson, 2003; Rovai, 2001).
Instructors are being requested to make their teaching materials and other
supporting resources accessible through the Internet (Alavi, 1994; Barker, 2002;
Coppola, Hiltz & Rotter, 2002; Lee, 2001; Topper, 2002).Students are encouraged
to communicate with instructors, owith one another, via email. As universities
promote Internet use, they need to understand their students’ attitudes towards
using it (Frank, Reich & Hum-phreys, 2003; Milliken & Barnes, 2002)

Product information leads to wards right decision to be made ( Alavi, save time
save money effort as well internet give a wise move in daily life about any
particular problem.
Internet is fun and wont let you bore in any part of life. it contains movies games
puzzles for free .

Research methodology:-

ANALYSIS:-

According to the surveys work I have analyzed this that internet net is
very useful tool in all phases of life in education information everything is just on one
click. It gives results of practical knowledge which been done by different scientist
engineers doctors etc during study or in every matter if just get a push from internet
person might do the same thing more better then others.
DISSCUSSION:-

Internet has positive impact as well as negative if we say positive in

studies or in every field of life we can get solid proof about any thing which been done
previously and by the time when one do that thing again success rate is 100%, accuracy
reliable in every field which will create class differentiate from others .
Now the negative aspect of internet people use to sit for many hours wasting time as well
money which leads to big disasters.

CONCLUSION:-

According to all the research work I have concluded that internet is very useful
tool in education as well as every phase of life weather information entertainment and we
should implement internet in our daily life to take useful decision of life. Internet shows
right directions full proof information about any particular problem and the part is it gives
entertainment the way you want.
