Magazines: The Computer Delusion

One of the most memorable, if not influential, magazine articles of the 1990s was Todd Oppenheimer's The Computer Delusion, published in The Atlantic magazine in 1997: 

"There is no good evidence that most uses of computers significantly improve teaching and learning, yet school districts are cutting programs -- music, art, physical education -- that enrich children's lives to make room for this dubious nostrum, and the Clinton Administration has embraced the goal of "computers in every classroom" with credulous and costly enthusiasm."

It's tablets, mobile, and 4G connectivity now, rather than desktops and broadband.  But the arguments for -- and the skepticism against -- haven't changed that much.
