The Internet and Memory<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Skimming text by default comes with a price. Using the internet as our primary source of information doesn\u2019t just reduce our level of engagement, it also reduces how much of it we can retain. Carr draws a straight line between the internet and memory, explaining that the pace at which you consume information has a direct impact on how much you remember.<\/strong> When you read slowly, such as with a physical book, your brain has ample time to transfer information into your long-term memory. However, the internet overloads that mental process. Given the rapid pace at which the internet drives you to skim online content, your brain struggles to transfer all that data from short-term memory into long-term storage. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: Carr divides memory into short-term and long-term, but there are actually several types of memory<\/a> that store different types of information. Carr\u2019s argument largely relates to semantic memory<\/em> of facts and information. We also have episodic memory<\/em> of events and experiences and implicit memory<\/em><\/a>, such as knowing how to perform tasks or how to respond to something in the present based on prior experience. These implicit memories don\u2019t require conscious effort to store or retrieve information. In Shortform\u2019s The Master Guides: Supercharge Your Memory<\/em><\/a>, we highlight several approaches to strengthening your retention skills, but all of these require practice to apply in a distraction-filled online environment.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The cognitive overload<\/a> you feel online also hampers your ability to discern what information is worth remembering. Carr says that this issue is compounded by the constant distractions and decision-making<\/a> demands that internet use entails. For instance, deciding whether to click on links embedded in text increases how much work your brain has to do.<\/strong> This added mental burden leads to overall loss of retention, and research backs this up. Readers who encounter hyperlinked texts, such as those included in this article, have a harder time remembering content compared to those who read the exact same text without the links. Whether you click on a link is immaterial\u2014what matters is the choice <\/em>the link forces on you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: The effects of hyperlinks on reading comprehension<\/a> may be more nuanced than Carr suggests. Some research shows that people tend to re-read sentences containing hyperlinked uncommon words, suggesting that links are useful to highlight important information<\/a> and they encourage re-reading for better comprehension. This can be attributed to the Von Restorff effect<\/a>, in which standout items are more likely to be remembered. However, over-signaling important information, such<\/a> as<\/a> by<\/a> using<\/a> excessive<\/a> links<\/a> in<\/a> text<\/a>, reduces how effective the messaging is and dilutes the impact of information cues.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beyond the internet\u2019s onslaught of hyperlinks, we\u2019re constantly bombarded by multimedia stimuli while online<\/strong>\u2014advertisements, videos, pop-ups, and the like. Carr argues that instead of enhancing your retention (as many educators at one time thought they would), these audiovisual add-ons often interrupt your train of thought, significantly reducing your ability to focus on and comprehend what you\u2019re reading. While it’s true that some multimedia content can boost learning when properly applied, such as relevant diagrams or video demonstrations, most often they do more harm than good. After all, on the internet, Carr says, multimedia\u2019s primary design purpose is distraction rather than enhanced learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Shortform note: Carr isn\u2019t out of line to suggest that multimedia tools are designed to distract us. In Make Time<\/em><\/a>, online product designers Jake Knapp and John Zeratsky admit to having been part of the Big Tech competition<\/a> to grab clicks, likes, and views. They write that today\u2019s information industry has fine-tuned its tactics to keep you checking your apps and consuming new media\u2014and that unlike industries with slower turnaround, tech developers can determine in real time <\/em>how successful their strategies are. The barrage of media is so overwhelming that you have to actively put barriers in place<\/a> to keep the internet from derailing your attention.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exercise<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

When you really want to remember something you read about, what do you do to help commit it to memory? Do you feel like the internet\u2019s bells and whistles are a distraction, or do they not bother you at all?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
