Internet Adoption and Usage in Bangladesh Md.Shah Azam (University of Rajshahi,Bangladesh) Like many developed and developing countries,Bangladesh has witnessed a phenomenal growth in accessing digital technology particularly using the Internet.Although facing many constraints in establishing an internet-dependent society,Bangladesh Government has paid utmost priority to develop the Information Technology usage pattern in her different sectors.Recently Bangladesh has been connected with information superhighway through submarine optic-fiber cable network that creates a favourable environment to increase Internet usage among various citizens.The study attempts to explore the effects of different factors influencing the adoption of Internet in Bangladesh.The Rogers model of Innovation Diffusion has been utilised as theoretical framework to measure the effects of the factors that account for adoption of the Internet,assuming the Internet as an innovation.A multiple regression analysis is carried out to determine the attributes that affect the intention to adopt the Internet,where adoption intention is considered as the explained variable.The study reveals that relative advantage,compatibility and complexity appear significant among the five attributes of innovation,relative advantage,compatibility,complexity,trialability,and observability considered as explanatory variables. Keywords:Rogers model,innovation,adoption,diffusion.

  • The Development Trends and Features of Online News
    Original Research Article: (2021), «EUREKA: Social and Humanities» full paper Number 3 THE DEVELOPMENT TRENDS AND FEATURES OF ONLINE NEWS WEBSITES IN BANGLADESH Abdul Kabil Khan Department of Media Studies and Journalism University of Liberal Arts Bangladesh House 56, Rd, 4/A Satmasjid Road, Dhaka, Bangladesh, 1209 [email protected] Anna Shnaider Department of Tourism & Hospitality Management Baltic International Academy 4 Lomonosova str., Riga, Latvia, LV-1003 [email protected] Abstract This article refers to the brief history of the development of online media in Bangladesh starting from the beginnings of the Internet to the contemporary stage. Since 2006 Bangladeshi news organizations have been reshaping their strategy towards being a digital-only news outlet. News organizations are now using different features of mobile devices and social media to tell stories and engage with their target audiences. Today both the digital-only news outlets and mainstream media use QR codes, messengers, social media platforms, which enable them to reach a wider area of audiences. By using yet inexpensive digital tools journalists can easily create and distribute content for digital-only platforms. We consider digital-only platforms as new media, social media, and convergence media platforms. Social media platforms have provided the opportunity for traditional journalists to share news quickly, get feedback from the audience, and have two-way communication with the reader. Previous studies have looked at the genres of online journalism from a western perspective. Little has been done on the topic from the context of Bangladesh. In this article, we analyze the basic features of online news media that exist in contemporary Bangladesh and provide an ac- count of the development trends.

  • A Survey of Internet Access in a Large Public University in Bangladesh M
    International Journal of Education and Development using Information and Communication Technology (IJEDICT), 2006, Vol. 2, Issue 3, pp. 86-105. A survey of Internet access in a large public university in Bangladesh M. Roknuzzaman University of Rajshahi, Bangladesh ABSTRACT The article describes the current state of Internet access and its usage in Rajshahi University, the second largest pubic university in Bangladesh. The study used a questionnaire-based survey method to investigate the infrastructural facilities for Internet access and to know the patterns of Internet use in all the 47 departments of 7 faculties, 5 institutes, computer centre, central library and administrative building of the university. Although the university community is deriving some benefits from internet access, the study revealed that nearly half of the responsible authorities of the various sectors are not satisfied with the existing facilities owing to several constraints. On the basis of the prevailing situation, this article suggests future directions for better Internet access in the common interest of the university community. Keywords: Internet access, ICT, Public University, Rajshahi University, Bangladesh. INTRODUCTION Bangladesh, located in South Asia, bordering the Bay of Bengal, between India and Myanmar, is one of the overpopulated, underdeveloped and technologically backward countries in the world. Like other developing countries, Bangladesh was late in introducing Internet technology. The Internet came in Bangladesh through UUCP (Unix-to-Unix copy) email connectivity in 1993 by Pradesta Ltd. and IP (Internet Protocol) connectivity in 1996 (Rahman, 2002). Online Internet service began in June 1996, when VSAT (Very Small Aperture Terminal) was legalized to operate as Internet Service Provider (ISP) in the country’s private sector.
