Excessive cognitive offloading interrupts necessary internalisation, leaving us with superficial schemata—weak mental frameworks that can't adequately support critical thinking or creative problem-solving.
'Declarative memory to procedural memory'? I am only familiar with declarative and procedural knowledge. What does this mean in relation to memory? This history teacher is intrigued and this TOK teacher is hopeful.
The brain’s system for consciously recalling facts, concepts, and experiences. Primarily involving the hippocampus and medial temporal lobe, this system allows explicit, deliberate retrieval of information.
Procedural Memory System
The brain’s system for gradually acquiring habits, skills, and routines through repeated practice. Centered mainly in the basal ganglia and related cortical regions, procedural memory supports automatic performance of tasks, often without conscious awareness.
Yes, it is almost like thinking fast and slow and that both are necessary. My contention is that in whatever form you may phrase it, effort is necessary and a focus on performance only cheapens education and erodes the profession by cannibalisation. Now that is a thought to have on a Saturday!

System 2 and System 1?
