56: The More Digital Technology, The Better, by Genesea M. Carter & Aurora Matzke

Kyle Stedman (@kstedman) reads the bad idea "The More Digital Technology, The Better," by Genesea M. Carter (@GeneseaC) and Aurora Matzke. It's a chapter first published in Bad Ideas about Writing, which was edited by Cheryl E. Ball (@s2ceball) and Drew M. Loewe (@drewloewe). Don't miss the joke: the author of the chapter is disagreeing with the bad idea stated in the chapter's title.

Keywords: cognition, digital literacy, digital writing, multimodal writing, technostress

Genesea M. Carter is associate director of composition and assistant professor of writing, rhetoric, and digital literacy at Colorado State University and co-editor of Class in the Composition Classroom: Pedagogy and the Working Class. Aurora Matzke is senior associate provost at Azusa Pacific University. As members of the iGeneration who teach and have taught at laptop-heavy campuses, they enjoy researching and teaching how to use technology in the classroom effectively and mindfully. Because of the importance placed on technology in society and on their campuses (and their love for their iPhones), they have first-hand experience with how technology can interfere with daily life and learning. As such, Genesea and Aurora are always looking for ways to get some tech-balance in their classrooms and after hours. Follow Genesea on Twitter @GeneseaC or visit her website at geneseacarter.com.

Oh, and sorry for the lousy audio quality this week. I had to record on campus because of a busy schedule, and after I found the quietest room I could, I recorded with a winter coat draped over the mic and my head—but hey-oh, that didn't help so much. Sorry.
