Jadoon,
N. A., Zahid, M. F., Mansoorulhaq, H., Ullah, S., Jadoon, B. A., Raza, A., . .
. Shahzad, M. A. (2011). Evaluation of internet access and utilization by
medical students in Lahore, Pakistan. BMC Medical Information and Decision
Making, 7.
The use of internet has increased
worldwide for educational purposes. The study shows that the internet has
become an important tool in Pakistan as well and is recommended for medical
study purposes. It has been proved that the use of the internet is lacking for
the study purposes but is used for other personal interests and activities.
This source provided information
about the excess use of internet but for other purposes rather than
educational purposes. Therefore the source is reliable and useful as it points
directly to the excess use of internet in students for other purposes.
This
article is helpful as it provided enough information about the use of internet
in medical students. That internet has been used for multiple purposes rather
than for study. Therefore, the access to
the internet for the students must be
limited in a manner where possible use can be provided for educational purpose
or for important tasks.

Ajuwon,
G. A. (2003). Computer and internet use by first year clinical and nursing
students in a Nigerian teaching hospital. BMC Medical Informatics and Decision
Making, 3-10.
A
study in Nigeria was carried out for the purpose to avail the information about
the use of the internet. On the basis of the study, it was identified that the use of the internet
is limited in medical students. As a result, it is not even used for the educational purpose by many medical students,
majorly by first-year students.
The
article helped in identifying the possible outcome of not utilizing the internet even after it is available. The source
is reliable as it provided a view of too much restriction or less activity in
internet and computer learning.
As the source helped in identifying the possible result of
such limited access to the internet in students. It also helped
to come up with another view of limited access to
the internet. The use of the internet must be limited in such a way that the
students can easily access it for their educational purposes. Not in a way that
they do not use it even after is
available as this is a misuse of an opportunity.

Gibson, S., & Oberg, D. (2004). Visions and realities of
Internet use in schools: Canadian perspectives. British Journal of
Educational Technology, 569-585.
A
three-year study was conducted to
identify the implementation of the internet
in the schools of Canada. The group contained teachers and students and other
officials. On the basis of methodology, the result was quite different as the
views of the use of the internet in schools were totally different
compared to reality.
There
was not a proper method or an educational pattern to follow when it came to using the internet
for such purpose. The ideas of using internet for effective teaching methods varied between teachers and the use of the internet
varies between students as well.
This
clearly identifies the use of the internet
without any visible or the same goal to
meet. In other words, there was no
limitation in the use of internet or
ideas towards the limitation varied. This clearly fits the topic as there must
be a proper limitation in the use of the internet
for having effective teaching and
learning methods.

Komerik, N. (2005). Use of the Internet Among Dental Students
in Turkey. Journal of Dental Education, 470-475.
The
use of the internet among the Dental
students in Turkey was evaluated by a study carried out at Suleyman Demirel University. The results showed that a significant amount of students used the internet for dental topics and general
information. Percentage of Dental topics searched was less while some of them didn’t know how to use the internet.
This
source provided information that Dental students used the internet for their educational purpose as well
as for other reasons. However, the number of extra activities reached on the internet were in excess. There was a misuse of the internet
in between or miss concept in the implementation
of the internet properly for academic
activities.
Students
must be provided necessary learning skills to adopt the use of the internet properly to an extent. This will also
help in covering up the number of students who do not know how to use the internet as well as will develop the same extent of view of using the internet in limited access.

Kumar,
S., Tadakamadla, J., Tibdewal, H., Duraiswamy, P., & Kulkarni, S. (2010).
Internet usage among undergraduate dental students in India. Revista Odonto
Ciência.
The use of the internet for
academic purposes was analyzed by a study carried among the undergraduate
dental students of India. The result showed that only a minor number of the
students used the internet for educational purposes while the majority used it
for general information and other activities.
The
information provided by the study amongst the Indian dental students about
internet usage was quite the opposite according to the actual view of internet usage. The source is reliable as it
provided information which included factors like lower availability of internet
in the institute with an increased number of students.
This
is a view which provides a look at excess of limited usage or access. The results of such an extent of limitation can be alarming. Meaning
of the limited access is the limited use
which is oriented towards educational purpose usage only and majorly. This
limited access can be due to limited resources or availability, but other countries can observe and learn to
sustain a stable environment of limited access with availability.

L., Christenson, G. A., Golden, D. J., & Grnat, J. E. (2013). Problematic
Internet use and associated risks in a college sample. Comprehensive
Psychiatry, 415-422.
Majority
of adults uses internet and excess of internet usage
can have a bad effect on them. A study
was conducted to identify the use of internet in amongst adults. The results show that only 13% of students met limited
usage criteria out of 237 while the majority used
in excess and had a negative effect on
their educational activities and grades.
The
use of the internet in excess can be bad
for its users, especially in adults and
those who are students. Moderate use of the internet
can end up with bad performances in various tasks and will develop bad behaviour. Excess use provides bad impacts on
the grades of students.
This
study shows the excess use of internet between adults and that the academic
activities and their results are ruined by such use. The effect of excessive use of the internet can be seen on the basis of the results provided. There
should be limited access provided for such users with complete guidance or
learning classes to provide a better way
to use the internet for education and in
positive aspects.

Martin, J., & Schumacher, P. (2000). Incidence and
correlates of pathological Internet use among college students. Computers in
Human Behavior, 13-29.
A
study was conducted to evaluate the use of the internet
among undergraduate students. A
Pathological internet use (PIU) was determined by the methodology and result on
the basis of it. Majority of the students (64.7%) showed the symptoms of PIU as
a problem in academic work, behaviour, distress and other symptoms. This
was only due to the excess use of the internet.
The
source is reliable as it provided necessary and identical symptoms of such a community. Adults and students get a bad
impact on their behaviour and emotions.
This, as a result, causes problems in daily life due to excess availability of
internet.
This
provides a clear view of excess use of internet and therefore even ups the
research about limited access of the internet amongst students. With limited
access and clear direction of using the internet
can prevent such outcomes. The result shown can be beneficial for others to achieve sustain balanced internet availability
environment.

Norris, C., Sullivan, T., Poirot, J., & Soloway, E.
(2013). No Access, No Use, No Impact. Snapshot Surveys of Educational
Technology In K#x, 15-27.
A
survey was conducted regarding the impact of internet
and technology used in schools in K-12 in the USA.
On the basis of the result provided by the data collection by administering the
snapshot survey. It was not the technology
that had a good or bad impact, but the students did. Limited access or
availability of the internet and
technology was the cause.
It
was shown that the technology could have a
positive or negative effect on
departments of education if it is available. After the availability, comes to
access to use which also plays the role
and can be effective one in different
manners.
It
can be seen on the basis of the result of the survey that lack of availability
can also have negative effects on educational departments as well as teaching
and learning. Therefore students must be provided possible availability and
required or limited access to internet and technology.
