[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Was just talking to another professor today about how the students barely have enough attention span to read a paragraph. Excerpted readings are getting shorter and shorter. They claim they don't understand all the words and don't bother to look them up in the dictionary. It's bad.[/quote] Tech and social media is dumbing every generation down at an exponential rate. I seriously wonder if student 10 years from now will even be capable of reading anymore. [/quote] M. T. Anderson's book Feed was disturbingly prescient in this regard.[/quote] Funny, this book was assigned reading for my high school freshman![/quote]
