May learning be negative?
May learning be negative (e.g. produce a stereotypical thinking and acting)? Or will it never do you harm ( the more learning the better)? What do you think about that?

learning can never be negitive......bcz someone says.....for knowing good things you should also know about bad things.....they are people....if a week person learns something bad....that can be affected..but not a strong person....

Accepting your interpretation "e.g. produce a stereotypical thinking and acting", my answer would be: Learning is almost always negative. (virtually, always)

It is better to say, " Can learning be a negative experience?" There is an old saying " a little learning is a dangerous thing" In the case of young children, I believe that unsupervised access to the internet can be a negative thing especially if they get into adult only websites. Also your brain can only take in so much information at the one time.Many people are expected to be on the job 24/7 and don't get a break from reading information. Having said that, I believe that people are life long learners. The more you learn about other cultures, the less chance you have of holding stereotypical views.

Interesting question.. I don't think there's a straightforward answer to it, but I'm sure the key is in what you study (or in who is your teacher, if you prefer it that way). I think that if you have no boundaries in the information you can reach (i.e. you have non-censored access to the internet :P) learning cannot be negative, as you can always know what is true and what is not; otherwise, if learning is somewhat restricted or limited to only a certain point of view it could have terrible consequences.
