Schwab's new book cover


I chose this image of a student "secretly" using their cell phone in class because my book, The Dumbest Generation, explains how tech savvy students are, but how they do not use technology to gain new and useful information. They use their computers and cell phones to keep track of friends and for gaming. I especially liked how this image shows unopened books on the desk because the author explains how students are not reading for entertainment or edification purposes. They see books as old fashioned and assignments that require them to read as roadblocks to spending time with their friends online. I have to admit that I agree with the author 100% so far.
