碩士 === 元智大學 === 資訊管理學系 === 90 === This study aims to explore the relationship between campus network utilization and academic achievement for the undergraduate students in a national university. The frequency data of webpages browsing was collected via adjusted network structure by using information techniques of network packets monitoring and counters. Thereafter, the data was correlated with students’ academic achievements in one semester. The study revealed the following findings: 1. There’s positive correlation between students’ academic records and frequency of accessing webpages of medical, political, religious and library. 2. There’s negative correlation between students’ academic records and frequency of accessing webpages of news, games, sports, and BBS(Bulletin Board System). 3. There’s no significant correlation between students’ academic records and frequency of accessing webpages of business, finance, learning, pornography, computer, literature, music, communication and chat room. 4. There’s no significant correlation between students’ academic records and the total times spending in on-line webpages browsing. 5. There’s significant negative correlation between students’ academic records and the amount of time playing on-line network games, network transferring time, network total output, and total hours spending late night. The total hours of staying last night with on-line games for undergraduate students obviously correlated negatively with their academic records. Furthermore, most students play on-line game during 23:00 pm to 4:00 am. It needs further study of the possible bad impacts to the students’ physical health, mental health, academic records and working quality.
