You might want to check out Neil Postman's "Teaching as a Conserving
Activity" in which he contrasts the curriculums offered by TV and
Schools (or what schools should offer).  In it he spends a fair amount
of time contrasting static (books) and dynamic (tv) visual media. He
says many standard things, but says them so well.
