According to the study, 61% of the youngsters surveyed said they do something else, some or most of the time, while doing their homework. There's nothing wrong with doing research online, but it makes kids lazy. Do research at the library? Why bother when you can access dozens of sources without moving from your desk? Copy notes on index cards? What's wrong with cutting and pasting into a Microsoft Word document ? other than the fact that plagiarism has become a rampant problem on campuses? And, BTW, LOL, why write in full sentences when the language of instant-messaging will do?"

"We're raising a generation of computer and computer game addicts who are doomed to fail in school, not because the system is obsolete but simply because it's a lot more fun, and a lot easier, to hang out on the computer than it is to read "A Tale of Two Cities.""
