A survey carried out by the Guangdong Provincial Social Sciences Academy and several government agencies shows that nearly half of the 5,000 primary school students surveyed have microblogs on Sina.com or QQ.com, Xinhua reported. About 32 percent of them shop online.

Every day more than 84 percent log on to QQ, 80 percent watch online videos and 71 percent play online games, according to the survey.

This generation of students have grown up with new media, including the Internet, computers and cell phones. New media has become part of their lives and affects their modes of studying, living, communicating and thinking, said Zhang Haibo, the general counselor of Guangzhou Municipal Young Pioneers, an association of students.
