Citing examples of how internet is essential to individual or others as higher education students
In recent time it is not so easy for a learner to study and get higher education, because
pandemic affect this process in term of closing schools and other education sources like
universities, etc. which put negative impact on career growth of individual. During this period,
internet is the only source that play vital role in regard to higher education student's, in term of
providing each and every knowledge, which they seek to obtain without taking one step out of
their home.
It can be said that internet is actually highly important for others as higher education
learners, as it provide a lot of benefits to individual learner in term of saving their time and
efforts in regard to find data, without reading a book of many pages (The Internet And Effects On
Higher Education, 2017). It caters chance to find out useful data without searching too much on
other educational tools like books, libraries, etc. where students reach to obtain essential info
regarding a topic, for which they may work hard.
Internet may become a quite useful and beneficial tool for them in term of assisting
learners in their higher education, as it gives them opportunity to continue their study without
going school and collect appropriate data about subject that they study and join higher education
institutes. It may provide up-to date data on a several of classroom related subjects that are
inaccessible from other sources. Information searching is a time-consuming activity, which may
put negative impact on higher education student’s performance and efficiency (Twigg, 2020).
Internet makes this thing easy for each of them that is beneficial and useful.
Furthermore, internet is highly essential to others who may attempt to grow by taking
part in higher education. For example, by using this source, a student may get access of new
vocabulary words in their studies. It also gives access to conduct a lot of research by using
google, which encompass key data about everything (Segura-Robles and et.al., 2020). It can be
said that significance of this channel in higher education means that is makes search easy for

individual student and provide excellent chance to learn new concepts, which they are unable to
understand without reaching school.
In today's environment, internet play crucial role in education process, in term of
providing answers of each question, which tutors may ask to complete in assignment from
students. Higher education students require conducting some research as they obtain many
projects, just because of using internet they may complete each project on time with useful and
understanding study materials, which make tutors and other readers easy to comprehend. With
the help of chosen source, a student may develop their searching skills even better than last few
years or months and achieve set short, long and medium term goals of their study which is quite
important for them to do so in right and effective way.
Along with above things, internet benefited in varied manners that define their
importance in regard to higher education learners who attempt to obtain high scores during their
study career, which enable them to get excellent employment opportunity or give power to start
own venture. It is important for them in term of effective communication with experience holders
as tutors that may have capability to teach individual candidate appropriately without going to
school just because of pandemic that affect education system totally. They may conduct visual
communication by making video call and asking few questions that help to solve their queries.
Online learning rapidly enables students to take up new specific working operations actively,
which enables students to be adhesive for stringent rise among performance goals.
Giving suggestions on how internet can better be utilize by higher education students to meet its
significance in the 21st century

brings on higher working scope for students to gain professional expertise targets diversely, for
larger significant growth evolved dynamically. Below are some of the key suggestions, for
enabling new recommendations for students to learn higher education learning in innovative
format from internet and online
 In 21st century, internet is quite essential and beneficial for everyone, especially high

education student's that seek to gain knowledge about a subject in which they are highly
interested, instead of focusing on other things. It recommended to a learner that they can
use internet in better way in term of conducting group meeting or conversation to reach at
final outcomes. They can utilize this element in term of making video conferences with
other students or group members, who obtain same project and effort to achieve set goal
(Al Kandari and Al Qattan, 2020). It will further enable students to be confident variedly
significantly, on which expansion growth technical parameters profoundly which further
synchronizes new primitive developed efficacy profoundly for higher synergies

during academic career, which play essential to their continuous growth and success
whether it relate to persona or professional career. Online platforms also prepare students
to further strengthen up new work efficacy, operational abilities for strengthened abilities
variedly for significant academic performance aspects innovatively.
 In the world of education, there are more suggestions accessible as option that allow
students especially, higher education to use internet better in way. For example, they can
record conversation which students can use during process of study, it saves their time to
search same information via books. Furthermore, by recording lectures and videos they
can utilize when info about a topic is required. They can save teacher lectures and
information that provide during video calls. It is one of those features that individual can
get by using internet and take its benefits for longer time, without paying high charges.
Internet and online platforms also significantly strengthens working engagement among
quests paradigms, which creates performance growth significantly on specific new
learning paradigms dynamically. Recent analysis signifies that by taking up online
platforms variedly, working competencies significantly for larger technical advancement
profoundly.

 They can watch videos of experience holders who may upload on varied sites such as
YouTube, google, etc. to make everyone capable to develop certain skills and gain
knowledge, which they lack. It is another suggestion that learner can adopt and conduct
their practices accordingly related to study. It helps in varied ways and offer so many
chances to obtain desire outcomes. Along with video conferences, they can use internet
for watching video through which engineering and medical students can learn how to do
a practical thing regarding their concept.
These kinds of suggestions enable students to achieve set aim and meet the importance of
internet in 21st century, for further attaining new professional work experiences significantly and
to expand key untapped new goals rapidly. The above analyzed keen untapped working
determinants have concluded professional understandings, significantly for creative engagement
rapidly within higher education diversely on optimum scenarios.
TASK 2
Reflective statement
The module has further enabled me to gain expertise in various skills, which can be
analyzed with implementation of Gibbs reflective model for analyzing academic performance
and functional growth scenarios diversely. Academic skills and working, are highly correlated
towards evolving new benchmarks profoundly which strengthens abilities variedly for
significant competitive avenues vividly towards untapped professional standards rapidly.
Module also engaged me to further enhance working operational abilities actively, determine
new quest rise working goals for higher performance growth (Gibbs’ Reflective Cycle And
Learning, 2019). Skills evaluation and potentialities engagement, further plays strong role for
strengthened academic integrity and working practical knowledge to derive higher efficacy goals
toward untapped new specific framework targets.
Gibbs reflective model analysis can be understood as one of the best reflective study,
where stages further enable to diversify capabilities with high practical accuracy variedly. There
are various skills, professional expertise which are evolved on while working for this module
which can be analyzed as follows:
Description: At this stage, I was able to further work on towards strengthening effective
new academic skills growth and expertise where my communication skill is strength, which

enables me to gain knowledge diversely. Description specifics further enabled me to strengthen

professionally.
At the feeling analysis stage, I have been competently active to enhance my management
learnings and expertise pertaining towards strengthened working framework within module
which also motivated me to be career oriented further. The feelings competitively enabled me to
gain knowledge about recent academic integrity and expertise highly crucial for expanding key
untapped new skills within my performance. Module also enhanced my practical working

interests to be potent for attending new skills and performance oriented goal, professional
competitive capabilities. The feelings stage also enabled me to further gain knowledge and
integrity to be diversified in varied skills, be competent towards strengthened academic goals
which leveraged functional growth actively on higher technical domains (Stocks, Culclasure, and
Odell, 2021).
Evaluation: This stage further prepared my academic integrity experience informatively,
for higher business competencies profoundly for gaining expertise professional synergy diversely
which enhanced my knowledge actively. The evaluation stage also prepared my integrity,
functional growth targets where I further aim to work on time management skills, presentation
and digital skills for enhancing my knowledge variedly among new subjects (Han, Kelley and
Knowles, 2021). I also further aim to improvise new experience determinants profoundly, by
evolving towards expanded competitive functional abilities primitively for untapped new
strengthened goals. Evaluation stage also professionally prepared my technical expertise targets,
enhance functional growth for new technical determinants in shape. The evaluation parameters
further enhanced my project submission abilities variedly which enabled my abilities, to yearn
professional work targets for new working goals profoundly. Evaluation stage further practically
enabled me to monitor my note taking skill used in reports which further enhanced my expertise,
technical professional abilities vividly for larger quest growth dynamically.
I also aim to improvise new competitive performance abilities profoundly, gain
functional knowledge variedly and significant experience for creative performance potentialities
rapidly advancing (Williams and Hawes, 2021). This can be also potentially understood to be
functionally essential for attaining new professional knowledge and capabilities, worked on to
strengthen up capabilities within performance targets diversely. Evaluation stage enhance my
vision oriented goals, for generating keen untapped functional goals, work on towards productive
engagement variedly and segment new capabilities actively. My digital and professional learning
skills can be improvised by taking on training sessions, gain experience from mentors and
supervisors for higher leveraged goals for strengthened competencies diversely.
Analysis-
As discussed above, during this module I have developed set of employ-ability skills that

provide unexpected benefits to me recently and will do so in the future. I have analyzed that
during this course work, I have conducted a lot of research and to make assure that information
gathered from each source will not miss, I efforts to wrote notes which directly and indirectly
developed my note taking skill. Just like current one, there are several activities has been
conducted by me, through which I have develop more competencies in excellent way. For
example, I developed written communication competence during process of transforming visual
data into written format that make understanding of other people about importance of internet in
higher education students life clear. This skill enable me to write key points that highlight the
main info about topic in term of summary, which individual understand at initial level.
Along with this analysis, I have determined that I also developed the most important and
beneficial skill and that is research competence, which every student whether they study in
college or school, seek to develop, just because it helps to collect useful information and
interpret each point in clear way. With this skill I have founded reliable sources where info about
my subject already accessible, which is authentic. Furthermore, I have gained benefits during this
module in term of developing critical thinking ability that assist taking decision to choose the
right data analysis tool and data gathering source where each sentence relate to my work. I
enhanced strategic planning along with above four skills, which contribute in my professional
career success.
Conclusion
From above description, it has been determined that by taking part and initiatives during
this module I have developed note taking, written communication, research, planning and critical
thinking as employability skills. Each skill plays vital role in my academic and professional
career growth. I have determined a lot of things about myself during whole process in term of
skills that I had, developing new competencies and identifying abilities as competencies that I
don't have, but tend to develop in the future, for which I have to choose the best and most
suitable personal as well as professional learning and skills development approaches.
Furthermore, by summing up above analysis, I have identified that during module I felt really
quite nervous at initial stage, especially when I conduct activity to gather data and just for that I
have to find out reliable and suitable sources, whether it is primary or secondary. After
understanding each point and finding way to collect material about this module topic, I felt relax

and work confidently without making any mistake that impact negatively upon my effort.
I have determined that development of current five skills is not quite enough to be
productive and match to the employment criteria of employers who attempt to hire people on the
basis of each point taking into their consideration. Just because of this purpose, I will focus on
skill's development, which I lack. From above analysis, I have analyzed that I am lacking in
some areas and these are time management, presentation, digital and team working
competencies. At the end of this module I effort to develop an action plan through which I would
develop range of transferable and employment skills.
Action plan-
