Does Internet Affect G.P.A?

CSEF · 2005 Behavioral Sciences

Overview

Objectives/Goals This project was done to see if G.P.A is really affected by the time students spend on the internet. If it results to have negative affects on students,maybe students will spend more time on their studies rather than log on the internet and chat, or play games. Maybe, the performed experiment will cause some students to realize not to spend more time on the internet than on studies. Methods/Materials A survey was passed out to the 7th and 8th grade students of T.C.A Arshad Dickranian Armeian School, and A.G.B.U Marie Manoogian-Demitrchyan school. The results were than calculated to find the average of the amount of studends spending their time on the internet and the affect that they are getting in their G.P.A. Then the data was seperated into groups to compare the results of the males to the females. Results It resulted that males spend much more time on the internet than females do, and they have lower G.P.As than females do. So this means that, Females, who spend less time on the internet have higher G.P.A than the males that spend more time on the internet. Conclusions/Discussion males have lower G.P.As due to the amount they spend on the internet daily than the females. So this results that the internet does affect students G.P.As by not spending enough time on the homework givem for them to do daily.
