摘要:The Internet has gone deeply into nowadays college students' life, and has become an important platform for students to study, entertainment, and build social relationships. In this paper, we study the patterns of how college students use the Internet, and analyze the potential impacts of Internet on the living and education of college students. We find that 95% of college students spend more than two hours online per day. Academic and career development is the top motivation for college students to use the Internet. However, high percentage of the college students is not able to control their usage of the Internet well, which leading to recognition that the Internet is a negative factor that affects their course performance. The findings are helpful for educators to guide students to use Internet in a reasonable way and to find ways to make the Internet to be conducive to high quality of higher education.
