The Internet In a Nutshell

There are more than 2 billion people that use the internet that is about 1/3 of the whole world's population.  There are so many people using the internet that it has become a part of people's lives.  There are many things to do on the internet ranging from doing work and being productive or to playing around wasting time. On the internet we can share ideas from people all over the world giving us more knowledge about other people's cultures.  The internet is now a daily requirement for school as it gives us more information that we can find in our own textbooks.  It is much easier to find information on the internet that to go to a library and look it up for yourself.  Looking up information on the internet only takes seconds using your preferred search engine.

Major Concepts

  • There are so many people using the internet today it's unbelievable.
  • The internet has become part of our daily routine.  We use it every single day and the internet has only been around for a few decades yet everybody is using it.
  • The internet is extremely useful for almost everything a person needs to know.
Potential Strength/Advantages
  • Everyone needs to use the internet, not being able to use the internet or unaware of the internet is looked down upon in our society.
Potential Problems/Limitations/Disadvantages
  • More and more people everyday use the internet unproductively which has caused our generation of children to become more strange in a way.  The people who do know the benefits of life and the internet will most likely become leaders or work at a very high rank as the people with ignorance will stay at the bottom until realization.
Discussion Questions
  • Will we every stop using the internet?
  • If we do stop using the internet what will the next big thing be?
