Look back at the in the Reflection sidebar in the “Computer Resources” section of this chapter. Technologist Sebastian Foti’s lament concerns the purpose for using computers in the classroom, and it might be summarized as learning vs. presentation. He makes an intriguing distinction, in my judgment.

Or is that only preparation for learning because using information entails real learning, not finding it?
