    abstract = {This study was carried out to investigate the
impact of the use of internet resources on undergraduate
student&#146;s academic achievement in mathematics. The
study employed descriptive survey research design and
the area of the study is University of Nigeria, Nsukka.
The study was guided by (2) research questions and (2)
hypothesis. The population comprised of all
undergraduate students in the Department of
Mathematics and Department of Science Education in
University of Nigeria, Nsukka. A sample of (100)
undergraduate students was selected from the
departments through simple random sampling
technique. The sample comprised of 60 pure
Mathematics students and 40 Mathematics education
students. The Instrument used for data collection was
Questionnaire on the Impact of the Use of Internet
Resources on Academic Achievement in Mathematics
(QIUIRAAM) structured on a four point Likert scale. The
research instrument was face-validated by three experts.
Cronbach Alpha technique was used to ascertain the
internal consistency of the instrument and a reliability
coefficient of 0.815 was obtained. The research questions
were answered using mean and standard deviation
while t-test was used to test the null hypothesis at 0.05
level of significance. The findings of the study
revealed that academic oriented use of internet resource
positively affects undergraduate student&#146;s achievement
in Mathematics. The findings also showed that there
is no significant difference in academic oriented use of
internet resources for learning mathematics concepts
between undergraduate student’s in pure Mathematics
and those in Mathematics education. The study also
found that there is no significant influence of gender on
undergraduate student&#146;s use of internet resources for
learning Mathematics concepts. Based on the findings
and implications of the study, it was recommended
among others that internet resources should be made
adequately available in Universities through collaborative
efforts of the University authorities, policy makers,
government and non-governmental organizations.}
