The wild, wild, web is a dangerous place to be if you want to think critically. C’mon, really now… who expects students to think while doing an assignment for a class in which they are not engaged. School has become an endeavor to do what is minimally necessary to get the grade desired. Maybe it is backlash against too much homework, but let’s get real. Were student really thinking when they had to use books to do their papers? NO! Editors did the thinking for the students. Now we have the Internet and editors are out of the loop. People must be taught to adjust their thinking… teachers included. Point. Click. Think? (washingtonpost.com)
