Abstract
The accelerated development of computer/Apps has had a negative effect on children’s intellectual outcomes. This effort will suggest that the simple nature of this technology can affect critical thinking in children. This effort will provide a brief survey of the Sociology of knowledge, and data on the negative effect on intellectual outcomes of children.
