INFLUENCE OF INTERNET USAGE ON TEENAGERS

By:……………………..

One of the greatest and most useful discoveries of the late centuries with remarkable impact is
the information super high way the internet contains tremendous impact in today’s society .The growth
of internet provides developing prospects for online information and to useful books for students across
the globe. The internet is a global network of computer largely based on platforms of wireless
communication which provides ubiquitous capacity of multi model, interactive communication in chosen
time and transcending space.
The internet thus creates new ways for individuals to communicate and share information of their
social life .It is obvious that the internet has and will continue to change the way we live. How it has
changed the way we live, and will continue to change our lives , is the reason for so many evolving
discourse. The internet therefore has changed the field of education, health and business and even
politics in the world. We can thus recognize the fact that the internet ,expands social , political and
economic activities of today’s peoples all over the world .However, internet has impacted our society in
almost all areas of human lives, especially in the field of education, students can get access to areas
of their interest and most importantly, people today can study online with the emergence of internet
.This is why I suggest that government at all levels should introduce computer and internet study from
the elementary schools for our youngest ones to be computer literate , because I noticed that most
undergraduate students are computer literate in our universities today. Similarly, internet has proven to
be a double edge sword for education. Teachers and students benefit immensely from the
unprecedented access to information the internet provides, as well as the ability to share knowledge
across the globe. These millions of books, journals and other useful materials of learning are available
on internet .However , the use of internet ,as important as it is to knowledge and education ,has many
negative effects on people , especially our youths. This is obvious in view of how much time and
resources people spend hours playing online games, pornographic videos .A child or student who
spends more time on the internet more than he or she pays attention to studying will definitely fail in his
educational or academic pursuit.
Internet, however provides a room for online social networks such as Facebook, Whatsapp,
Instagram, Twitter and many other influence on way of lives, student academic performance as well as
professional activity. The emergence of mobile technologies has burdened the functionality and utility
of the internet, thereby providing people with easy accessibility. The internet users go to online to
deliberately engage in browsing immoral internet content, a distraction from their educational carriers.
These rapid changes in technology are helping shape the way people use and rely on the internet in
their daily lives.
In conclusion, despite all the benefits of these new technologies, people are likely to say that the
internet has negative influence, especially in terms of its moral implications. It is therefore important for
people to understand both the negative and positive effects of internet so that we can respect the
principles of our religious ideologies and maintain our dignity as human beings.
