¶ … journey are enormous, but they compare with the challenges faced by those in this week's media in significant ways. The two resources I would like to focus on include the "Faculty Expectations and Interaction Program Transcript" and the "Walden Student Services Staff Program Transcript." I would like to discuss the various uses of the Internet in the classroom, including for research, communication, and networking.
As the speaker states, "faculty relationship are some of the most important you will cultivate" while at Walden ("Faculty Expectations and Interaction Program Transcript" n.d.). One of the challenges I face will be interacting in small group environments and finding my voice.

Some theorists argue that, "...the use of e-mail enables people who are peripheral in groups to become more visible. This means that people of lower status can easily communicate with those of higher status" (Module 3: Online Personal Relationships). Another category that benefits from the Internet in terms of personal relationships is those who prefer not to interact with others conventionally due to fear or a perception that going out
The wealth of activities and opportunities that are available to teachers online enhances what is available to them for use in the classroom. Teachers who are well educated will make the most use of the available internet resources. Additionally, the modern classroom does not have to be a physical location; it extends into the cyber world. This fusion creates dynamic and exciting possibilities for both teacher and student, increasing
With the widespread use of such technologies, we require greater understanding of the personal and social attributes that affect why people use computer-mediated communication (CMC) and the outcomes of CMC-related behavior."

The capability of the Internet to make available the vast quantity of information to practically everyone, irrespective of their locations thus entails large benefits. The Internet provides access to the greatest libraries of the world to the students even in the smallest towns and permit the medical specialists to analyze the patients
Internet Addiction It is thought that nearly five million people today are addicted to the Internet. With that many people experiencing addiction symptoms, it is important for the mental health community to develop methods of treatment.

Although use of the Internet became common in the early 1990s, it
