In its current usage the term cyberspace is
a global network of interdependent information
technology infrastructures, telecommunications
networks and computer processing systems.

newspapers, magazines,
books and bulletin boards
people can find any
information they want;
![Page 17: In its current usage the term cyberspace is a global network of interdependent information technology infrastructures, telecommunications networks and](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56649ef75503460f94c0ad0b/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Everybody can publicate on Internet his opinions, needs, interests and aspirations;
![Page 19: In its current usage the term cyberspace is a global network of interdependent information technology infrastructures, telecommunications networks and](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062720/56649ef75503460f94c0ad0b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

unthinking consumers
of the electronically-
produced meanings
flowing over the Internet; Network leads individuals to expect that they can
find a tool that can quickly solve every problem;

Frustration with technology
can halt progress in a course; It seems that students become
paralyzed until the
technical issue is resolved;
