Paper Title
Educational Implications of the Digital Revolution
Abstract
The main goal of this paper is to explicate major unintended consequences of digital technology for young users. It is argued that due to brain plasticity the brains of young users are by necessity modified to reflect the needs and requirements of the digital era. Chief among them is the trading of the ability to concentrate for speed. This inevitably augments attention deficit and significantly reduces internal life.
