Abstract

This study looks at the effects of the Internet on learning environments and the usage of digital literacy skills (DLS) by post-graduate (PG) students. The study examined how the Internet impacts education and shows how postgraduate students at Andhra University use their digital literacy and general competency to enhance their academic performance. Two hundred postgraduate students were the study's target group. The respondents were selected using a non-probability sample. To gather the information, students had access to a standard online survey. Additionally, the data was examined and assessed using SPSS software. The research shows the importance of creating awareness among students by the university library staff. Also, it analyses digital literacy, which encompasses the ability to use digital tools for analysis, research, and communication, efficiently access online resources, and evaluate information critically. Nevertheless, the Internet underscores the importance of digital literacy abilities among the student community. The Internet has notably influenced the academic landscape by providing access to vast information and fostering technological skills development.
