College Students’ Attitudes To The Network Hypes
Abstract:
This paper is commissioned to study the college students ’ attitudes towards
network hypes. Network has already penetrated into every aspect of our life. We use
internet to search for almost whatever information we need.
Our society has been experiencing a net-volution. Internet has already changed
our life way. We use internet banking to pay the cost of water and electricity. Through
network, we can buy many things without going out of our house. According to the
statistics from Industry Information Department, internet users in china have already
passed 400 millions. China has become NO.1 in the number of internet users.
Many events can be spread through internet quickly. So many Network Red are
appeared, such as Sister Furong , Sharp brother. There are also many hypes online
everyday. For many people, they do not know whether these events are true or not.
Only people involving in the events know. For many hypes, the purpose is to make
more people to know them or to increase the degree of concerns about these events. In
order to know the students ’ attitudes towards the network hypes and if these hypes
and the whole network environment can affect people’s life values, authors of this
paper make an investigation and study the results of this survey.
Through this study, the paper concludes that most people are familiar with
network hypes and have a comprehensive mind with these events. However network
environment has a more or less effect on people’s life value and most believe that
internet users should obey a moral standard.
Key words: network hypes; internet environment; internet users; network red
1.Methodology and procedure
The authors of this paper use the form of the questionnaire. In this questionnaire,
we design ten questions. Each of the ten questions involves an aspect about network
hypes. From these questions, we can study people’s attitudes towards the network
hypes.
A total of 20 individuals participate in the survey. They are all from college
students. Although the number of people involving this survey is small, they are
covering different grades and to some extent, it still can stand for some point of view.
If time permits we can design more questions in this questionnaire and find more
students to join in this investigation.
After stating these questionnaires, we use excel to make charts in order to make
our investigation more clearly and vividly. Through the statistics, we can get our
conclusions. Then we analysis the results and have our recommendations.
These are our methodology and procedure about this investigation.
2.Presentation and results
In this part, I will give nine charts. Each chart represents the result to the
corresponding question. Then I will give some explanations to these charts.
Among this investigation, there are 3 girls and 17 boys. Although the number of
girls is small, it meets BeiHang university’s ratio of girl to boy. All of them are
students from BeiHang university.
Chart 1
From chart 1, we can see that at least 85% of the participants know network red.
This may demonstrate that most college students are concerning more or less these
network red and events involving with them.
Chart 2
As we can see from chart 2, 70% of the participants believe that celebrity
scandals or hypes are only the private life of stars. Only 5% think that it is very
difficult to accept those bad things happened on stars or other celebrities. 30%
consider that those protagonists deep in the hypes are the victims. 15% feel that these
hypes are against the law. According these statistics we can draw that most of college
students have an entertainment attitude to these hypes although some believe that
network hypes should be given a moral concern and not against the law.
Chart 3
This question is about the reason why those network hypes can appear. From the
result we can see 70% believe that it is the malicious media speculation that makes
the hypes so common. From this question we believe that most college students in
fact have their own ideas about hypes and understand the essential of those hypes.
Chart 4
This question is very interesting. We want to see if people are interested those
hypes or talk with other people about the hypes. However the result is somewhat
different from what we think. 70% of participants think that these hypes are just
rumors and ignore these events after know of them. Only 20% take the action of
spreading the hypes.
Chart 5
Facing more and more hypes, some of which are malicious, from the point of
view of author, we think these maybe have effects on youth. This chart shows us that
75% believe that whether hypes should be controlled depends on the situation. Only
15% think that they must be controlled by government. We may conclude that for
most internet user hypes online are within their tolerance.
Chart 6
This question is to find if students more or less change their moral standard when
they are surfing in such a network environment. We can see from the chart that some
of them really do many things that they may never do in real life. Maybe nobody
knows what they do online, so some people may lower their moral standard.
Chart 7
Take Sister feng for example, 85% do not like the way Sister feng gets famous.
Only 5% believe it is all right. From the result we can see that although students are
concerned with hypes, they do not think this way to get famous is a good mode.
Chart 8
Although hypes do not have essential effects on our real life, maybe they can
gradually change our outlook on life. This question is to determine if students are
affected by these hypes. From this result we can get that 45% students are affected to
some extent by hypes.
Chart 9
Internet provides us a virtual world, totally different from our real life. As the
corresponding, whether different moral system should be obeyed. Through this
statistic, 80% students believe that we should obey the traditional moral. 20% think
that we should change our moral system.
From the statistic we could see that most college students know of the hypes
happening recently. However most believe that the hypes are just entertainment
products, and have an entertainment attitude towards them. Although almost half of
the students are more or less affected by the hypes, they do not hope these hypes
happening on them. Facing the virtual network world, most students call for obey the
moral.
3.Conclusion
College students take more time on network surfing everyday, which already is
their life style. Things and persons are easily becoming popular on the net. And now
some persons are very well-known through network hypes, Such as Sister Furong,
Shoushou, Sharp brother which are already famous figures on the net for a short time.
The protagonists of network hypes gain the fame in a non-traditional way and gain the
benefit more or less. Whereas, on one hand, the mass are rational facing the network
hypes, they clearly realize that network hypes are bad activities and rumors which are
mostly fabricated and arranged deliberately by the organizers. The majority will
ignore and not care the network hypes. On the other hand, the mass more or less
attend the communication of the network hypes as an entertainment and seek the
pleasure from them. Whereas, as a channel of the culture, the mass holds that the
network hypes which affect the value concept of the mass should be forbidden, and
the regulations or laws should be established quickly.
4.Discussion and Recommendation
As a new channel of the culture of public communication, net plays an important
role in the communication of the mass. Net is already different from the others old
communication channels, its range of the communication is more wide, its speed of
the communication is quicker, and its interaction of the communication is stronger.
What are the influences of network hypes on the social education?
Now, network hypes are very common on the net. The minority make use of the
networks hypes to obtain individual interest through the net, especially gain the
economic interests. They take all kinds of measures to achieve theirs aims not
thinking of the influences on the mass . So they totally communicate some strongly
wrong messages to the mass. Especially, some wrong valve concepts are
communicated to the young population, so they affect the thinking growing of the
young population, which is a serious social problem. So network hypes only service
the minority which is black-hearted and selfish, whereas harm the interests of the
mass. This kind of phenomenon is totally wrong.
What and how do the mass and the government should do facing the network
hypes?
We need the right world view, philosophy and value concept in the society,
especially for the young population whose thinking is maturing. The society need be
harmonious and healthy, and develop as a right method. Everyone can seek
something meaningful from the society to develop themselves actively and rightly.
So net should communicate something right and meaningful, not dirty and wrong.
On one hand, the organizers and the protagonists of network hypes have better realize
what they do on the earth and the bad influences of their activities on the society and
the mass. If possible, they may correct their bad thoughts and activities. On the other
hand, the government should make some regulations or laws to restrict the networks
hypes to protect the interests of the mass. The real names are registered on the BBS to
avoid network hypes. If the organizers and the protagonists of network hypes appear,
they can be pursued his legal responsibility. At the same time, the mass should obey
regulations or laws, and make our best and restrict ourselves on the morality.
