Internet in Education System

Review article

Abstract

In recent years, internet use have been transformed into an activity that is increasingly popular for the young people. They can make the internet part of their lives, intertwining it with the social, emotional and spiritual one. There is a growing number of studies that try to find the positive and negative aspects of the internet use. Our overall interest in this research is to explore the positive and negative effects of internet use on the educational system, as one of the main factor of the youth culture. A positive example could be that access to much more information has brough more sophistication and awarness in the educational process of young people; on the other hand this prevalence of internet have intensified psychological and cognitive problems, changed cultural norms governing traditional events such as funeral mourning, incited new kinds of fears, and have also been used by marketers to aggressively target these same young people for financial gain. From a systematic review of the recent literature, we find conclusive evidence regarding different factors that influence the learning process and the educational system in general.
