Arriving Somewhere

Michael Gorman wrote a couple of interesting blog (!) posts in which he assails Web 2.0 and the “wisdom of crowds” as “a desire to avoid individual responsibility; anti-intellectualism…” In his words, “The life of the mind in the age of Web 2.0 suffers, in many ways, from an increase in credulity and an associated flight from expertise.”

Web 2.0: The Sleep of Reason: Part I, Part II

Be sure to read the responses… I especially found Meredith Farkas’ response enlightening. “I agree with Gorman that the crowd isn’t always right, but neither is the expert. And sometimes the crowd does know more… The fact of the matter is, we do not teach students to think critically.”

I would respond myself but I’ve got a ton of homework to do in preparation for my weekend long class starting Friday!
