Does technology deprive people of basic skills?

[whosinthehousejames]

Are there any websites, articles, books, or papers about technology and basic skills like memorization, or something like that. And any games that help us regain those skills? Does technology make us smarter or dumber? why i need examples. What kinds of things make us smarter and dumber

[Helmaroc]

Smarter, we are learning skills about the technology. For instance, if we learn to use the computer well, we will be able to connect with other people well, which is a skill. Skills in technology are becoming more and more like basic skills. Think about it, don't you hate having to explain how to turn on the computer to some old lady? Well, they don't have that basic skill. If you learn to use technology, you'll have an easier time adapting to the soon-to-be very technological world. The world is going to get increasingly involved in technology and computerization.
