    1.

    From the research, do boys and girls share the same internet
    usage? Explain your answer. Cite statistics or data.
    No, because the boys are more interested in just playing games while girls are also
    socializing through internet that is why they spend more time in using it.

    2. Cite one real life example in your school or community of


    teenagers who have experienced computer addiction. What
    happened to them? Have they recovered from their addiction?

     We ourselves have experienced computer addiction but we interviewed one of our


    family member. She was addicted in using social media ever since she was in High
    school and at some point she become depressed, can’t focus in her study and
    become more insecure. She recovered when she started in College, she deleted her
    Facebook, Twitter and Instagram account and only use messenger to communicate
    and instead of browsing through internet she just review her lessons and school
    works.

    3. Give two pieces of advice from tablets for schools to avoid


    computer addiction.
     Do the school works early and avoid surfing through internet.
     Delete unrelated apps that can distract you from studying.

    4. Summarize the answers.


     Though using internet can be very addictive it can be controlled with proper usage,
    time management and prioritizing more important things like studying or doing
    houseworks.
