Wouldn't say there's anything earth shattering here and these aren't scientific studies, but some interesting questions are raised....

Interesting question for sure, and I'm glad we have a desire to deeply interrogate the intersection of new media and learning. However, I hope we're equally critical and introspective regarding all forms of technology, systems, pedagogy and methods when it comes to learning.
In this light, here are a few questions that I have:
1. Is lecture ruining students? 2. Do standardized tests ruin students? 3. Do solitary, paper and pencil final exams ruin students? 4. Does homework ruin students? 5. Does project based learning ruin students? 6. Does the non-stop reading of books ruin students? 7. Does google ruin students? 8. Does play or a lack of play ruin students?
This list could go on and on. Let's be sure we're asking all of the tough questions as we imagine and create the best learning design possible for youth.
