Class Discussion Question 10/19/23

Group 3’s question

Ashiley Thomas Hanna Taveras

Explain whether or not search engines have a negative impact on our culture’s ability to retain information.

When Jay David Bolter talks about remediation, he is talking about how over time, media does not get replaced it just improves overtime. So we do not need to look at physical book as being replaced by ebooks, we can just see physical books being improved by the creation of ebooks. As mentioned in quote, ““As with any remediation, however the eBook must promise something more than the form thy it remediates: it must offer what can be construed as more immediate, complete, or authentic experience for the reader”  on page 80
