One complaint I have heard from professors and others is that the generation of young people now entering the workplace don’t know how to communicate. They are poor writers and their coordination and collaboration skills are lacking. Some of this would have to be a direct result their being wedded to their “digital assistants.”
My elementary teacher son and his wife are telling me that kids will soon not be taught math tables. This is because they will have their personal handheld devices to do the math for them. Some would call this progress. I wonder what Einstein would call it?
