Abstract: In this paper, we present a case study to discuss the internet usages of primary school students and the exploring capabilities of using internet on regional culture course. 226 students of grade five from a primary school in Taiwan were selected as samples. We designed a questionnaire to analyze the internet usages and behaviors of these sampled students including time spending in internet, frequency, location, and reason of using internet, internet activity, and recognition of internet functionality. We designed questions for the regional culture test and conducted experiments to analyze the relationships between the internet usages and the scores of the regional culture test. Furthermore, we analyzed the relationships among students¡¦ backgrounds, academic achievements, internet usages, and the scores of the regional test. Concluding remarks and the suggestions for future studies are also provided at the end of this paper.
Keywords: Regional culture, Exploring capability, Internet usages, Academic achievement.
