CState-Is Google Making Us Stupid?

While the article does not specifically attack Google, it does mention it as a definite tool being used by most information seekers today. Do you agree with our author that Google and on-line reading has changed the way we interpret texts? Has it changed how our minds work? Do you feel it has affected you personally? Do you believe you read more or less now that you can access most books, news networks, etc on-line? How did reading this article make you feel about the way you process information?

CState book problems

For my 3:30 Columbia State class--
I have a different book edition and page numbers are not going to match. I will try to get a different book version for Wed. Until then, do not worry about the reading assignment.

CState Wed. August 29th

Tell me why you chose to come to Columbia State.

Reader Response for Wednesday--Write about two of the stories listed on the syllabus for Wed. Make sure to note information about the author, symbols, and themes. Any other information or observations you find relevant about the story should be noted in your blog. Three to four paragraphs should be sufficient. Make sure that you write before you come to class Wed. to earn full credit.
