In Internet Enhancing Education In Nigeria

Osagie, R. O.(2012), "The problem of the mass failure of the candidates in the WAEC and NECO examinations has prompted educators to question the current system of education in secondary schools in Nigeria" (para. 2). 
In Internet Enhancing Education In Nigeria 

One thing I have learned, everyone has a right to education, and everyone has the right to use their learned knowledge for whatever they desire. According to data from a Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) that was conducted in Nigeria in 2003, 60.1% of all children of primary school age were attending primary school at the time of the survey, and among children of secondary school age, 35.1% were attending secondary school. Education in Nigeria should be foremost within the community because they need to educate their young population for the future, using computer technologies and the internet.


Computers have become inarguably one of the most powerful communication tools on the face of the planet. With the use of Operating Systems in electronic devices such as mobile phones, desktop, laptops and note books, Nigeria can now be able to use these attributes for the sake of the overall improvement of their education by going to online schools all across the world. Every last one of these devices can connect directly to the internet.
The internet allows countries (like Nigeria) the capabilities to enhance their societal education for present and future needs. The internet is probably the greatest information source ever invented and one major use for it is going to school. Where, at one time, it took someone to go out of their apartment, get into their car, go down to the library, walk into the library, check-in, get situated, and find the books they needed for school research papers, one does not have to do that anymore-Nigeria is a country that definitely don't have that luxury. To get Nigerian students educated, more educated, and test, country test scores up, the internet serves as the greatest help because now people can provide online classes and libraries. In an article by Roseline Osagie, she had this to say about Nigeria's educational circumstances: Osagie, R. O.(2012), "The internet supports thousands of different kinds of operational and experimental services, one of which is online library. Students can get plenty of data on this online library" (p. 18). With all this, Nigeria can now get their students educated in a major way.


Nigeria's educational attainment should not be a bad statistic! Because of computers and the internet, the people of Nigeria can get the education they deserve and want for their futures. With America and all other countries, lets get some superior technology to Nigeria and educate their society.
