HIGH TECH HERETIC:
Why Computers Don't Belong in the Classroom and Other Reflections by a Computer Contrarian
An interview with Clifford Stoll
Clifford Stoll is an astronomer and pioneer Internet user. But, unlike most high-tech insiders, this University of California Berkeley astronomer isn't sure of the network's value. He is, in fact, more than just skeptical of the highly touted benefits of computers. And, Mr. Stoll is troubled by what he sees the real damage they may cause to American education. He expresses his doubts in a volume entitled High Tech Heretic: Why Computers Don't Belong in the Classroom and Other Reflections by a Computer Contrarian . He argues that instead of spending time in front of computers, youngsters need interaction with their peers and with their teachers. He argues that computing offers instant gratification instead of solving the real problems in American education which require interaction with teachers and improved discipline. In this interview the author talks about some of what he sees as the negative impacts of the high-tech revolution.
Q: Mr. Stoll, you write that "Our nation now spends about three billion dollars a year to wire our classrooms with an aim of making our country's students computer literate. But how much computing does a high school student need to know?" you ask.

Books by Clifford Stoll
Silicon Snake Oil by Clifford Stoll
examines the computer networks that we have today, compares the actuality with the myths believed by many net-denizens and the hype presented to those who aren't connected yet, and considers the drawbacks and unintended consequences of the use of computers and networks. It is good to see a balanced treatment of such topics from someone who has been active upon Usenet and bulletin boards for years and cannot be dismissed as an ignorant Luddite. It is impassioned, carefully reasoned, and fun to read. Stoll examines such topics as the culture of discussion nets (including both Usenet and local bulletin boards), how email compares with letters sent by post, the shallowness and narrowness of the information available online, and how schools, libraries and businesses are affected by the introduction of computers and networks. One underlying theme runs through every chapter: that contacts by network are, at best, no substitute for personal, face to face contacts. This should be obvious, but we often forget it in practice. He sets up this theme very memorably in his opening chapter, in which he contrasts the original Adventure text game with a speleological expedition which followed from a discussion about whether the cave descriptions in the game were geologically accurate. He says little about the culture of Usenet that folks who have lurked there for a few months don't know already; he speaks of the rapid escalation of disagreement into flaming, of the periodic repetitiousness of nearly all newsgroups, and of the absurdly illogical newsgroup name hierarchy: "it's obvious that no librarian would ever develop such a freaky, byzantine system." He is fair, however; he also speaks of the more interesting, less flammable newsgroups, especially of mailing lists, and has high praise for local bulletin boards.

Highlights of Interview with Clifford Stoll
Excerpts of an interview by Russell D. Hoffman on his radio show HIGH TECH TODAY The following are some highlights from a radio show broadcast on radio station WALE. The views expressed are solely those of Russell D. Hoffman and his guest and do not necessarily reflect anyone else's point of view. May 24th, 1995 Russell Hoffman ("Host") High Tech Today
Clifford Stoll ("CS"), Author, The Cuckoo's Egg, Silicon Snake Oil. Host: ...Ponder this, that I've wondered about for a long time, if you will: It's the problem of not doing original research. If a thousand people convey a piece of information, or a collection of information from one to another, at a 99.9% [error-free] rate, which sounds like a pretty good, error-free rate, but if a thousand people transmit that informationwhat have you got at the end? And I think this is something that, in a way, you're addressing because you don't know the sources of the information you get on the Internet a lot of times. CS : People think that because there [are] documents available online, that almost automatically all they have to do is copy from an online document and paste it into something else. To get the inside scoop, that all they have to do is peruse a fact that's been posted to the Internet, or to the Usenet, and they'llright off, see the facts of the situation.

Overview Annotated Bibliography
Stoll, Clifford. Silicon Snake Oil: Second Thoughts on the Information Highway. New York: Doubleday, 1995.
The Oxford English Dictionary defined "snake oil" as "a quack remedy or panacea." Stoll's main argument is that many zealous proponents of communications and educational technologies are trying to sell us a silicon version of that old quack remedy. Stoll is actually a big fan and very experienced user of computers (widely known for his work and writing on computer security), but he is concerned that are often being pushed into situations for which they are not appropriate based on inflated claims and unrealistic expectations. "Computers themselves don't bother me; I'm vexed by the culture in which they're enshrined." Stoll states his "strong reservations about the wave of computer networks. They isolate us from one another and cheapen the meaning of actual experience. They work against literacy and creativity. They undercut our schools and libraries." According to Stoll, they can also be frustrating, prone to obsolescence and cost more than their purchasers can really afford.

"The Cuckoo's Egg: Tracking a Spy Through the Maze of Computer Espionage"
Maybe you think I have a funny idea about adventure, but I think this counts just as much as climbing a mountain or sinking a boat. Mr. Stoll is an astrophysicist turned systems manager at Lawrence Berkeley Lab, but becomes a one-man security force tracking down a computer cracker when he discovers a 75 cent accounting error. This is in the earlier years of computer security, but very informative and reads like a thriller. The Cuckoo's Egg is well written and is considered a classic. Mr. Stoll is also the same person who was doing "thoughts" at the end of The Site TV magazine which used to be on MSNBC. After seeing him on The Site, I could see why he had just the right personality to go after this cracker!

Clifford Stoll,
"Computers in the Classroom: What's Wrong with This Picture" Clifford Stoll
(b. 1950), trained as an astronomer, is a computer security expert and writer and speaker about the computer revolution. His first book, The Cuckoo's Egg: Tracing a Spy through the Maze of Computer Espionage (Doubleday, 1989), chronicles how he tracked and caught a German spy ring operating over the Internet. This selection is excerpted from his second book, Silicon Snake Oil: Second Thoughts on the Information Highway (Doubleday, 1995), in which he explores his ambivalence about where the Internet and computer technology are leading society. Clifford Stoll's home page "Computers in the Classroom: What's Wrong with This Picture?" Composing Cyberspace p. 396) is not available online.
2. Why are computers not essential to most college courses, in Stoll's view? What kinds of learning does Stoll suggest are most important, and why does he think technology can be counterproductive to that learning? How would you compare your own experiences, or those of classmates or fellow readers, in any of the academic fields (from the humanities, sciences, or engineering) that Stoll discusses?

Clifford Stoll ) ist Astronom und Publizist und an der Universit¤t von Kalifornien in Berkeley t¤tig. Seine Themen sind dabei Computer und Internet Clifford Stoll war 1988/1989 maŸgeblich an der Ergreifung des deutschen Hackers Markus Hess beteiligt. Der Grund daf¼r war ein Abrechnungsfehler von 75 (US)Cent. Als œbergangsadministrator – mangels Arbeit als Astronom – wurde er auf das Problem angesetzt. Er stellte fest, dass ein Hacker in sein System eingebrochen war, der Rechenzeit f¼r 75 Cent verbrauchte. In Zusammenarbeit mit US-amerikanischen und deutschen Beh¶rden wurde Markus Hess Monate sp¤ter gefasst. Stoll beschrieb seine Jagd nach dem Hacker detailliert in dem Buch Kuckucksei , das international ein Bestseller wurde und viele Computernutzer erst an das Thema Hacken heranf¼hrte. Obwohl er eigentlich Astronom ist, erhielt er durch das Buch den Ruf, ein exzellenter Kenner der Computer- und Netzwerktechnik zu sein.
