SAMPLES OF AN INTRODUCTION
The spread of the internet has had a world-
changing effect, not least on the world of education.
The use of the internet in academic contexts is on the
rise, and its role in learning is hotly debated. For
many teachers who did not grow up with this
technology, its effects seem alarming and potentially
harmful. This concern, while understandable, is
misguided. The negatives of internet use are
outweighed by its critical benefits for students and
educators—as a uniquely comprehensive and
accessible information source; a means of exposure
to and engagement with different perspectives; and a
highly flexible learning environment.
