Examining Attitudes and Behaviours of Secondary School Students in Terms of Internet Use and Media Literacy Process
Abstract
Television and internet, two important media, have many negative effects on physical, psycho-social, moral and cognive development of youth who do not have media literacy skills. The researcher developed Inventory of Attitude and Behaviour towards the Internet and Television - Student (Internet ve Televizyon Tutum ve Davranis Olcegi-Ogrenci) [ITTO-O] to examine secondary school students’ usage of television/internet and the social problems they faced. The research involved 1,302 children attending grades 6 to 8 in Central Kutahya. The researcher used percentage, frequency, t-Test, ANOVA and X2 to analyze the data. The findings of the research show that many of the students’ usage of internet and television is intense. However, those students are found to have a lack of media literacy skills. These students are under the risk of negative effects of internet and television. According to the findings of the research, students demonstrated the following problems: uncontrolled internet and television usage, freely sharing personal information in social media, internet addiction, difficulty in seeking help from parents, trusting all information found on internet, encountering internet fraud, internet gossipping about himself-herself and so on.
