University of Google

Google is “white bread for the mind”, and the internet is producing a generation of students who survive on a diet of unreliable information, a professor of media studies will claim this week.

In her inaugural lecture at the University of Brighton, Tara Brabazon will urge teachers at all levels of the education system to equip students with the skills they need to interpret and sift through information gleaned from the internet. She believes that easy access to information has dulled students’ sense of curiosity and is stifling debate. She claims that many undergraduates arrive at university unable to discriminate between anecdotal and unsubstantiated material posted on the internet and peer-reviewed scholarly research. “I call this type of education ‘the University of Google’. Google offers easy answers to difficult questions. But students do not know how to tell if they come from serious, refereed work or are merely composed of shallow ideas, superficial surfing and fleeting commitments. Google is white bread for the mind – it is filling but it does not necessarily offer nutritional content,” she said.

Professor Brabazon’s concerns echo the author Andrew Keen’s criticisms of online amateurism. In his book The Cult of the Amateur, Keen says, “Today’s media is shattering the world into a billion personalised truths, each seeming equally valid.”

Professor Brabazon said: “I’ve taught all through the digitisation of education. We can no longer assume that students arrive at university knowing what to read and knowing what standards are required of the material that they do read”. “Students live in an age of information, but what they lack is correct information. They turn to Wikipedia. Why wouldn’t they? It’s there,” she said.

With libraries in decline, media platforms such as Google made perfect sense. According to Professor Brabazon, the trick was to learn to use them properly. “We need to teach our students the interpretative skills first before we teach them the technological skills. Students must be trained to be dynamic and critical thinkers rather than drifting to the first site returned through Google,” she said. Her own students are banned from using Wikipedia or Google in their first year of study, but instead are provided with 200 extracts from peer-reviewed printed texts at the beginning of the year, supplemented by printed extracts from eight or nine texts for individual pieces of work. There have been concerns about students plagiarising from the internet and the growth of a new online “coursework industry”, in which websites produce tailor-made essays, some selling for up to £1,000 each.

Wikipedia, containing millions of articles, contributed by users, was founded in 2001. It has been criticised for being riddled with inaccuracies.

Google is the dominant search engine on the internet, it uses a formula designed to place the most relevant content at the top of its listings. But a multimillion-pound industry has grown up concerned with manipulating Google rankings through a process called “search engine optimisation”.
