Quote

In addition to replacing creative play as a leisure time activity, screen media is less apt to generate creativity and imagination than radio and books—which require more of us. Reading requires us to imagine both aural and visual images. Radio provides sound, but still necessitates that we imagine what the story looks like. Screen media does all of that work for us and, in addition, seems to be an aid in remembering content—which may make it a boon to certain kinds of learning, but a bust when it comes to nurturing imagination.
