Is google making us stoopid
- 1. Is Google Making Us Stoopid? Jaclyn Lee Parrott Ruth Pagell adapted from Rich Gazan
- 2. Is Google Making Us Stupid? By Nicholas Carr Media not passive channels of information-supply stuff of thought and shape process ~Marshall McLuhan, media theorist 1960s Thinking is changing… Internet controlling… Capacity for concentration and contemplation “We are not only what we read… we are how we read.” ~Maryanne Wolf, developmental psychologist Technology used shapes neural circuits inside brains affecting cognition Ruth Pagell adapted from Rich Gazan
- 3. “in the future the system must be first” ~Frederick Winslow Taylor Plastic Brain “intellectual technologies” Intellectual ethic obscure The perfect algorithm Google, “the perfect search engine” Ruth Pagell adapted from Rich Gazan
- 4. Driven to distraction Is intelligence only output of mechanical process? “Cease to exercise their memory and become forgetful” ~Socrates on the development of writing Intellectual laziness, weaker minds ~Humanist Hieronimo Squarciafico on Gutenberg printing press Ruth Pagell adapted from Rich Gazan
- 5. Skeptical of skepticism “Perhaps… from our hyperactive, data-stoked minds will spring a golden age of intellectual discovery and universal wisdom” “Deep reading… is indistinguishable from deep thinking” ~MaryAnne Wolf Wide and thin Ruth Pagell adapted from Rich Gazan
- 6. How Stupid is Google Making Us? ~William Badke Rapid growth in technology – “shorter and faster” Digital natives vs. digital immigrants Reading text vs. internet sessions Brain training Digital experience-rapid processing of data – reject and synthesize Ruth Pagell adapted from Rich Gazan
- 7. iBrain Generation Priorities are different Problem: Doing arises from knowing Optimize brain use through shaping information literacy skills Research is a deep thought exercise Ruth Pagell adapted from Rich Gazan

- Mind is changing Media affects processing Bruce Friedman, a pathologist, his thinking has taken on a “staccato quality” Neural circuits inside brains shaped by technology used
- Nerve cells routinely break old connections and form new ones, reprograms Intellectual technologies – tools extend mental rather than physical capacities, take on qualities of technologies – Daniel Bell, sociologist Communications system plays so many roles in our lives- broad influence over thoughts Algorithm – Internet a machine for one best method to carry out every mental movement of what we’ve come to describe as knowledge work Google – understands what you mean and gives you back what you want
- Google – search engine as artificial intelligence, human brain outdated computer that needs a faster processor and a bigger hard drive
- Deep reading – contemplation, intellectual vibrations, making associations, inferences, and analogies within minds which gives ideas
- Not taking time to sort through best results E-books – keyword search to right stuff Both had similar brain activity when reading longer text Dig immigrants took only 5 days of using internet to use the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex like natives Brain adapts to electronic information environment by training self to use part that processes large amounts of data more easily Gains in one area/less use in another
- Google not making us stupid, but shallow iBrainers need a knowledge base and enough deep thinking ability to optimize their information literacy skills As information professionals, we need to challenge users to see research as a quest – a problem solving task that involves thinking through and evaluating evidence on the way to solution
