dc.description.abstractA growing awareness of the educational benefits of the Internet has contributed to a sense of urgency among tertiary institutions worldwide to deploy it. However, with its many advantages also come the numerous challenges and problems. Managing internet access by students is particularly problematic, as valuable and costly Internet connection time is often used by students to access pornographic sites, read newspapers, play games, and to engage in online chatting, while other students cannot find ample computer time to do their work. The problem of students submitting downloaded works from the internet as their projects and assignments is rampant, while scarce resources are wasted printing irrelevant documents and visiting sites with questionable educational values. This paper therefore looks at the benefits of the internet in an academic environment, and highlights the major problems and challenges of providing internet access to students. The paper also reviews management policies for improving the benefits students derive from using the internet.en_US
