Please Nicholas carr!! Who believes that not only is Google making us stupid, but that reading from screens and skimming is turning our collective brains to mush! (The Shallows)DRM remians a source of frustration for studentsCalifornia 2011 (2,500 students)that many undergraduates complain that they have trouble "learning, retaining, and concentrating" when reading from screens.students prefer many of the low tech elements of print and paperâmore research needed to better understand users interactionsâ, âstudents understand conventions of print books but (e.g. index) The most illuminating part of the survey came when respondents were asked to explain their preferences. The answers suggest that while students prefer e-books when they need to search through a book quickly to find a particular fact or passage, they prefer printed books for deep, attentive reading. "E-books divide my attention," said one undergraduate. "Paper ... keeps me focused and away from distractions that may arise from computer usage," said another. "I have some difficulty paying careful attention to long passages on my computer,â said another. "Reading on the computer makes it harder for me to understand the information," said another. Commented a graduate student: "I am a better reader when I have the print copy in front of me."
