Internet use has had a significant effect on teaching and learning. In research papers many teachers in high schools require a number of websites to serve as sources cited. Many college professors ask for the same deal; their students provide online sources (excluding Wikipedia). Many teachers also use the internet to find articles relating to the subject matter they will be teaching that day. The internet is a resource to all members of a learning environment and can be used to provide information on any subject.
In recent classes in college I have experienced a professor using online resources often. Many history classes use the web to find illustrations, maps, historical images, and photos/artworks of famous figures which cause an extensive search prior to many classes for the professors. They add information to attempt to bring students in such as notes on different works or opinions placed on visual historical facts; such as Andrew Jackson had a huge nose or the Pieta had been done before. It often is a benefit because it illustrates history and provides further information.
