“Is Google making us stupid?” shows us that Google in our minds maybe be the best source for our mind to look up information but in all reality we’re learning absolutely nothing from it. We only gain information for a short amount of time that we actually never put our minds and really research what we look for. We devote our time to a web source when it’s only a distraction and putting a road block in our brains from real learning. Then again who really has time to intake every information they get . it’s not like their going to remember it anyways.
“Is Google making us stupid?” by Nicholas Carr is about how Google is such the greatest web source that gives us information to just about anything you can thing of but on the other hand we the people never really intake the information and think about what it says or what it means all that matters to us is that we found what we’re looking for and that’s about it. Our mind takes in knowledge when we’re peaceful, and relaxed. The less peaceful we are, the less knowledge we gain. We’re so use to the internet that we never stop, stare and realize that we have a world of knowledge to learn from, we’re distracted with text messages and using the net other than using our minds and put it to a good use. The way to learn isn’t Google. Google is just an easy way out, to really open your mind to fresh useful data is stop depending on everything that gives it to you and think.
I believe that Nicholas Carr has a point when it comes to Google. We use it to much for almost everything we do. We use it at home, school, and even work. As much as I dislike to agree with this article, I do agree but then again I don’t. Suppose I only agree with this because it’s true that means I’m going to have to stop using my technology and knowing myself, I refuse to. I’m so attached to it I’ve become one with technology. How else am I going to get information? Yes I know some information on the internet is false but then again there are official web pages that gives you the information you need.
I understand that yes we do use Google to look up things and never pay any mind to it, okay good point. Then again who really remembers everything they read anyways? You’d have to be the smartest person alive and have patience to sit down and read everything, which can take forever or maybe more because there are more things that are being discovered yet not enough time to really acknowledge it. Earth is getting advance every day, how are we suppose to know what’s happening if our technology is turned off?
Nicholas Carr states “If you’re really interested in developing your mind, you should turn off your computer and your cell phone—and start thinking.” Okay we use Google way to much but then again some people do not have time to go out into the world and explore what their looking for maybe zoologist or geologist do but I’m taking about working people, People who have kids, who don’t have any money to travel.
"Is Google making us stupid? By Nicholas Carr shows us that Google is our easy way out and we never learn from anything we read. He states that we should learn on our own. he does have a vauluable point,but what he fails to realize is that everyday we're getting more advanced and there's a new discovery being discovered. it doesn't hurt to use the computer to look up things on Google, It's just we have to learn to gain knowledge from it.
I feel like this Cat was way easier then other cats we did in class because the hard cats showed me that if i can understand a harder article this should be a breeze. i felt like this cat i did really well i didn't stop writing. i actually caught the claim quickly.... well or i think i did.
