I feel that the internet does have an effect on student abilities. The internet offers the student a vast amount of information at their fingertips. The average student today has had years of experience of browsing the net. This has fine-tuned their abilities to review information quickly and to determine if the information is relevant and accurate. They become informed at an accelerated rate and the results is that they are better decision makers.
