So this perception I have had that people are getting more superficial, less patient, and less able to think critically is not just my imagination. It's real and it's linked to the use of technology. This is something that the Principal in the school where I work should know. She is trying to get everyone to go 100% digital. She went so far as to take all of the paper out of the copy room. If a teacher wants to print or copy a document, they now have to remember to bring paper to the machines. I call it zombie leadership.

I prefer to hold a book in my hand. There something to be said about that. I also like that new book smell.

Great article. Thanks for sharing. And I absolutely concur. I enjoy the speed reading I can do with my Kindle word options but nothing feels more comfortable than a book in my hand. So having experience in both really exemplifies the variable.

I do not like ebooks.
