STAR - Software Tools for Academics and Researchers At Penn, students can get credit for ‘Wasting Time on the Internet’ Kenneth Goldsmith stands in front of 10 tons of printed paper from his exhibition “Printing Out the Internet” at a Mexico City art space in 2013. (Janet Jarman/For The Washington Post) Lucky creative writing students in a University of Pennsylvania seminar will be able to earn academic credit for wasting time on the Internet next spring. The instructor, Kenneth Goldsmith, tells The Washington Post that he will strictly enforce “a state of distraction” among the students — exactly the sort of thing he and virtually every other professor on Earth spends time trying to eliminate from their classes. The purpose, Goldsmith says, is to have the students write something good at the end of the course, as a result of all that forced distraction. “We do it, but we’re not really thinking about what we are doing,” Goldsmith says of digital distraction. The conventional wisdom is that all that Internet time is making us as a society stupider.
