Teens lose ability to read and write long texts because of Internet


Today I read an article in The Spectator it causes me a lot concern and confirms my suspicions about something I'd always thought, the Internet has changed many aspects of human life, which has even changed our structure of thinking, but unfortunately not for the better, but for the worse.

is well known that the generation of the Internet have fragmented type thinking, multitasking (you can do several things at the same time for a short period of time), and to execute orders quickly. But analytical skills, logical thinking and long-term focus is being lost. A serious situation if we look at the areas of knowledge needed skills described above.
I invite you to read the article and give me your opinion.

This link found the article in English. Teens lose

ability to read and write long texts because of Internet

The Network is undermining the ability of concentration of young people.

The Internet is undermining the attention span of young people, according to a study led by Professor David Nicholas, University College London. According to this survey, teenagers are losing the ability read and write long texts because the network shapes the minds so that work differently from those of previous generations. The researchers studied how hundreds of individuals aged between twelve and eighteen responded to questions that required some research. Most adolescents replied after consulting half the Internet sites that adults and their responses were more incomplete. According to Professor Nicholas, 40 percent of those who participated in the study did not consult more than three pages of the thousands available on the Web sobre un tema determinado. Por el contrario, las personas que se educaron antes de la llegada de Internet volvían a las fuentes y profundizaban en ellas en lugar de saltar de una página a otra. "Hay pruebas empíricas de que la sobrecarga de información y el pensamiento asociativo está remoldeando el funcionamiento del cerebro de los jóvenes", afirma el psicólogo Aleks Krotoski.

Forever ... What's that, Paula? I lost the timing in the white building where there is echo and never at night. Have vanished the boundaries of reality, life is a maze of mirrors and distorted images found. A month ago, at this hour, I was another woman. There is a photograph of me then, I'm in the party for my latest novel in Spain, with an eggplant-colored low-cut dress, necklace and bracelets of silver, long nails and confident smile, a century younger than today. I do not recognize that woman in four weeks of pain I have been transformed from a microphone While explaining the circumstances that led me to write The Infinite Plan, my agent made his way through the crowd to blow me to hear that you had entered the hospital. I had a feeling that a ferocious fundamental Unfortunately we had strayed lives. When I arrived Madrid two days ago, and I felt really bad. I was surprised you were not at the airport to receive me, as you usually did, I left the luggage at the hotel, exhausted by the brave journey from California, I went to your house where I found vomiting and burning with fever. You had just returned from a retreat with the nuns at the school in which you work forty hours a week as a volunteer and help each to poor children, and told me it had been a heavy and sad, overwhelmed your doubts, your faith was fragile.
