Teachers and professors think the Web is great to a certain point though. Teachers have noticed students are carried away by the Web because they are focusing less on reading. Carr agrees, “…. They don’t necessarily read a page from left to right and from top to bottom.

Jon Elorriaga Dr. Patrick Muana English 1301 Reading Response 3 25 May 2012 A Critical Reading of Michael Bugeja’s “Facing the Facebook” In “Facing the Facebook” Michael Bugeja discusses the various problems associated with the use of Facebook especially in educational institutions. Many educational institutions invest increasing amounts of money in technology with the idea of enhancing learning through research. That students actually waste their study hours on Facebook and get distracted in class because of Face book is an indication that those institutions are wasting their money. Although many professors have yet to find out about Facebook and about its impact on students, educational institutions as a whole are looking for ways to stop students from accessing it, especially during school hours. Another important downside to Facebook, Bugeja notes, is that it creates an egocentric environment – what he mentions as “egocasting” in his essay.
Tevin Hutchinson 11/10/2012 English 102 Technology plays a huge role in our everyday life. I do believe that technology has made our lives easier, but it also has made us more dependent on the technology itself. When using the internet for a dictionary you could easily get distracted. Anyone can put anything on the internet, so what you find might not be accurate. Most people find that looking things up on the internet is distracting because you are already on the web so why not check YouTube for a funny video, or update your status on the social network.
In other words, as we get older, we have a harder time with distractions online with the Internet, Facebook, and such. Finally, some people say that using Google will make a person stupid, which is true for some, but others like me, actually use it for research and to learn as well. Experienced Internet users actually showed increased brain activity, with more advanced decision-making skills and complex reasoning. In simple terms, the inexperienced Internet users lagged behind. This is either a win or lose for using Google, it help some, but also fails others.
His primary arguments seemed to be examples of his own difficulties. He states “Immersing myself in a book or a lengthy article used to be easy…That’s rarely the case anymore.” He continues to write of how his mind starts to wander after a few pages, and he looks for something else to do; reading has become a struggle. Carr says the culprit is the Internet itself, basing his accusation on how in today’s society we can obtain information after just a few minutes on the Net. The media today has started to give us information in as limited amount of words they can allow, so we as users can skim the information we desire then move onto the next sliver of info. He believes our minds have been altered to expect all information the way the Net hands it out: “in a swiftly stream of moving particles,” as he put it.
Nowdays, people started to forget that the internet and new media technologies intersperse our notice but the book helps to keep our attention. So people need to read a books in order to improve their attention. In the article “ Does the Internet Make you Dumber or Smarter?, “ Nicholas Carr asks question that does the internet make people dumber or smarter?. I think a lot of people want to know the answers too. Carr thinks that the net makes people dumper because he proved the net makes people scattered and superficial thinkers.

A Changing World One of the main assertions of The Shallows: What the Internet is doing to our Brains, by Nicholas Carr, is that the Internet is changing the way that people are reading. Carr describes how he used to read before he started spending a lot of time on the Internet. He used to be able to read in great depth and get lost in the pages of a book. Now, Carr says after using the Net for quite some time, he is hardly able to read more than a few pages without getting distracted or bored. As Carr proves throughout his book, the brain is able to be altered and changed.
