the use of internet among business
students in Darul Ihsan University, a pioneer private university of Bangladesh. A total of 162
questionnaires were distributed and 137 completed questionnaires were returned.
Findings reveal a high percentage of internet use among students. More than 56
percent of the respondents use the internet for educational purposes. The
access point for them is mostly the university. Google and Yahoo! search
engines are found to be more widely used than other search engines. The major
problem faced by the students in their use of the internet includes slow access
speed. Recommends that the bandwidth should be increased to overcome the
problem of slow connectivity of the university to internet and more computers with
latest specifications and multimedia facilities should be provided. |
