Students are becoming more and more reliant on the Internet. While the Internet is convenient, it has many negative effects and its use for educational purposes should be restricted. How far do you agree with this statement?

Therefore

? and do these

outweigh the upsides? One big downside of the

is the increased risk of getting distracted. Personally, when I am doing educational

I get often distracted by the many features the

provides. Thereby, I often surf to my social media pages or go watch online videos, even though I have more

may help to keep the student mentally strong and potentially decrease stress. Another downside may be that the

On the contrary

, we are overflooded with

information

and

therefore

it may be appropriate to have a system in place that makes doing

research

easier. Finding papers you require for your

into a library is much more challenging than finding them on the

internet

, which saves a lot of time during

Therefore

, I do not advocate the statement that the

downsides
