This shocking, lively exposure of the intellectual vacuity of today’s under thirty set reveals the disturbing and, ultimately, incontrovertible truth: cyberculture is turning us into a nation of know-nothings.

Can a nation continue to enjoy political and economic predominance if its citizens refuse to grow up?

For decades, concern has been brewing about the dumbed-down popular culture available to young people and the impact it has on their futures. At the dawn of the digital age, many believed they saw a hopeful answer: The Internet, e-mail, blogs, and interactive and hyper-realistic video games promised to yield a generation of sharper, more aware, and intellectually sophisticated children. The terms “information superhighway” and “knowledge economy” entered the lexicon, and we assumed that teens would use their knowledge and understanding of technology to set themselves apart as the vanguards of this new digital era.

That was the promise. But the enlightenment didn’t happen. The technology that was supposed to make young adults more astute, diversify their tastes, and improve their verbal skills has had the opposite effect. According to recent reports, most young people in the United States do not read literature, visit museums, or vote. They cannot explain basic scientific methods, recount basic American history, name their local political representatives, or locate Iraq or Israel on a map. The Dumbest Generation is a startling examination of the intellectual life of young adults and a timely warning of its consequences for American culture and democracy.

Drawing upon exhaustive research, personal anecdotes, and historical and social analysis, Mark Bauerline presents an uncompromisingly realistic portrait of the young American mind at this critical juncture, and lays out a compelling vision of how we might address its deficiencies.

网络技术的发展突飞猛进,对于我自己来说,大一大二几乎是沉浸在网络的世界里,课程什么的在考试前一周临时抱佛脚就能合格,优秀与合格也没有多大差别,反正评奖学金都是以学分制来,最后折算的差距仅仅在小数点后第三位,关键的是活动加分。所以我完全忽略课堂,教师,沉迷于...

這本書壓縮成一篇數據分析報告就行瞭 浪費時間看的

倒不覺得數字時代讓這代人變得“更笨”瞭,而是將那些本來就笨入膏肓的人更加明顯地暴露瞭齣來,並形成瞭一種“我笨故我在”甚至“我笨我自豪”的以笨為榮文化。

對於中國人,特彆是中國年輕人,基本沒用。
