非常好的一本書,值得所有大學生一看。
評分you just cannot trust him too much
評分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。
評分When people warn of the country's future, they usually talk about competitiveness in science, technology, and productivity, not in ideas and values. The current domestic situation demands that we generate not only more engineers, biochemists and entrepreneurs, but also men and women experienced in the way of culture.
評分這本書其實我看瞭有一陣子瞭,但我並沒有看完。如果圖書館沒有催還的話,我本是打算看完的。但結果,我隻看瞭一半的樣子,並毫不後悔的還瞭迴去。在看這本書之前,其實我期望甚高的,因為這本書的作者說過:其實,每個人的生活中,99%都對彆人沒有任何意義。因為這一句話,我開始看這一本書,但看瞭一半之後的感覺卻並不如我的期望。這更像是一篇及格但不優秀的議論文,有著清晰的論點、論據、論證,卻沒有閃光點。然後,也就是這樣瞭。
Mark Bauerlein is a professor of English at Emory University and has worked as a director of Research and Analysis at the National Endowment for the Arts, where he oversaw studies about culture and American life.
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.
如要更快成长,应当习惯性做总结,这是大学老师给我们的一则训言。 对于每一次新事物的获取,我很少做自我系统性的总结。这一劣根性毛病理应尽早革除、燃尽、掩埋,以致作为新生的肥料。 从刚看完的一本书<最愚蠢大一代>开始,愿长此以往,挣脱愚蠢的禁锢,向独立性思考人格...
評分在马克·鲍尔莱恩笔下的最愚蠢的一代,初听之时似乎骇人听闻。作者在著述中通篇贯穿着一个悖论,即在信息化时代,面对迅捷的信息,丰富的资源,在数字环境中成长的一代为什么不但没有出现预期中的智力增长,反而在读写能力、人文素养、公民意识等方面呈现着倒退的迹象。 ...
評分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...
評分最近有看美国埃默里大学的英语教授马克—鲍尔英所写的一本得罪了美国8700万青少年的《愚蠢的一代》一书,颇有些感触。 迥异于“垮掉的一代”的代表作家杰克凯鲁亚克笔下的所谓的性格粗犷豪放、落拓不羁,生活简单、不修边幅,且喜穿奇装异服,厌弃工...
