Interesting perspective. One more reason we need to create high quality lesson powered by technology vs same old lesson distracted by technology. THE ELEPHANT AND THE RIDER Jonathan Haidt's metaphor of the elephant and the rider is useful here. In Haidt's telling, the mind is like an elephant (the emotions) with a rider (the intellect) on top. The rider can see and plan ahead, but the elephant is far more powerful. Sometimes the rider and the elephant work together (the ideal in classroom settings), but if they conflict, the elephant usually wins.
