摘要

本研究调查了三角洲州立大学abaka学生在学术活动中使用互联网的挑战。尽管学生从互联网的使用中获得了许多好处,但他们仍然面临着利益相关者需要解决的挑战,以建立一个有效的教育系统。为了达到研究的目的,提出了三个研究问题。本研究采用描述性研究设计,样本量为120名学生,从100 - 400个水平随机抽取。通过结构化问卷收集的调查对象的数据,采用描述性和推断性统计进行分析。研究结果表明,互联网接入可负担性对三角洲州立大学abaka学生学术活动的影响包括:接入互联网的成本、互联网设备和服务的高成本、缺乏接入点和设备容量有限;缺乏个人互联网设备,依赖朋友和家人上网。调查还发现,大多数学生缺乏互联网浏览技能和使用数字设备所需的技能,并且存在语言障碍。该研究得出的结论是,对安全和隐私的担忧对学生学术活动的影响源于对诈骗、窃取密码、虚假新闻和信息、欺诈者和分心的恐惧。因此,除其他外,建议互联网服务提供商应努力消除或减少诸如网络问题和连接中断等互联网挑战。

The Challenges of Internet Usage for Academic Activities Among Students of Delta State University, Abraka
This study examined the challenges of Internet usage for academic activities among Delta State University, Abraka students. Despite the numerous benefits students derived from internet usage, they are still faced with challenges which stakeholders need to address for an effective educational system. Three research questions were raised to achieve the objectives of the study. The study adopted a descriptive research design with a sample size of 120 students randomly selected from 100 to 400 levels. The data collected from respondents through structured questionnaire were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The findings of the study revealed that the effect of Internet access affordability on academic activities among students of Delta State University Abraka included the cost of accessing the internet, high cost of internet devices and services, lack of access points and devices with limited capacity; lack of personal internet device and reliance on friends and families for internet access. It was also established that most of the students lack internet browsing skills and required skills to use digital devices and language barriers. The study concludes that the effects of safety and privacy concerns on students’ academic activities derived from fear of scams, stealing passwords, fake news and information, fraudster and distraction. It was therefore recommended among others that internet service providers should endeavour to eliminate or reduce internet challenges such as network problems and connection breaks.
