Internet knowledge consists of two aspects that are essential to the most common uses of the Internet; what people know about the Internet and what people can do using the Internet. Although Internet knowledge is a conceptually unique construct, the boundaries between this concept and Internet experience as well as Internet self-efficacy are fairly blurred in past research. Experience has been widely demonstrated in many technology acceptance model-related studies to be a moderating variable. This paper presents the results of the research conducted in order to examine the higher secondary students and their internet knowledge. Knowledge can help teachers to deal with the new situation with less stress and so enable them to take steps appropriately in tune with the need of the students and the institution. In this view point the researchers have undertaken this study. The present study was conducted to the higher secondary students and 90 students were chosen for the study. The purposive sampling technique was used in selecting the sample. Experimental method has been used in the present study which consists of (a) Control Group (Black Board teaching), (b) Experimental Group I (Power point teaching) and (c) Experimental Group II (Animated teaching by multimedia package) and the survey method was adopted to collect the data from the higher secondary students in the Internet Knowledge Test (IKT) constructed and validated by Manikandan, K., and Vaiyapuri Raja, P., (2015). The result revealed that internet knowledge among the higher secondary students do not differ significantly according to their sex and residence in control group, experimental group I and experimental group II.
