The librarian has stated the effects of AR and it's point-driven
agenda. I've experienced numerous students searching for a book in
the library and the only selection criteria they are interested in
is the AR level and point value. Their own reading interests or
preferences aren't even condsiderations. That is sad. And we wonder
why many students aren't passionate, critical readers. AR has
transformed them into robotic, surface level readers.
