If you couple that with governmental programs like we have here in which kids from 7th grade to 12th grade are given free(!) laptops with internet access, you'll get even more scared.
If then you add to the equation the fact parents work 9 to 5, or 9 to 6 if you will, when they are not working overtime, and they come home increasingly tired over a world ever more competitive and unresponsive to the possibility of helping with their kids school tasks, you'll get even more scared.
If then on top of that, you add the fact, internet usage is mostly language dependent and some countries don't even have proper educational content on their native tongue, you'll get even more scared.
And if it's not enough, schools around the world actively encourage computer usage as a learning tool, forgetting the lack of content, not administering any filtering or controlling access to the content on the internet. That is also scary.
Other traditional learning centers like libraries also migrated to computer and internet usage, providing free access for an hour or two at a time, without any sort of filtering where the most used application inside a library these days is Messenger. People line up for their turn, where the book rooms are now more empty than they ever were before. That is also scary.
As bleak as it may seem, there will always be smart students who know how to tell an apple from an orange and use the internet as a learning medium in a responsible manner. But, we are also breeding a huge crowd of complete lazy ignorants that will eventually one day hit the job market.
