Say it quick, say it well - the attention span of a modern internet consumer | Media Network | The Guardian - 0 views

  • while students coming through the schools system in this always on world benefit from instant access to a wealth of information from numerous sources, their attention span and desire for in depth analysis is consequently diminished. The current generation of internet consumers live in a world of "instant gratification and quick fixes" which leads to a "loss of patience and a lack of deep thinking".

      Possibly one of the biggest hurdles we will encounter as educators - shorter attention spans and limited patience for learning. 
  • In a world of instant gratification and where an alternative website is just a mouse click away website owners need to find ways to firstly grab the attention of a user, and then keep it for long enough to get your message across.

Teenagers Leading Happy, Connected Lives Online - NYTimes.com - 0 views

  • Where are the dire warnings about how the online world is depriving our teenagers of their opportunity to learn the skills needed to interact with people instead of screens while exposing them to all manner of bullying and cruelty, and tempting them to fritter away endless hours playing video games?
  • “Adults have tended to see time online for teenagers as this frivolous, time-wasting thing that’s just entertainment. But what we found is that it’s crucial for teenagers in forming and maintaining these really important relationships in their lives
  •  
    Is social media all that bad when..... "A new report on "Teens, Technology and Friendships" from the Pew Foundation puts an unusually positive spotlight on the online lives of teenagers as they build friendships and connections in a digital world. Teenagers aged 13 to17 are finding ways to strengthen their relationships with real-world friends as well as making new friends through social media, video gaming, messaging apps and other virtual connectors."

Special Education Teachers: Effective Teaching Strategies | Concordia University - Portland Online - 1 views

  • Effective Teaching Strategies for Special Education
  • Working with Short Attention Spans Set clear expectations for all students. Break assignments into smaller pieces to work on in short time periods. Space breaks between assignments so students can refocus on their tasks. Share ideas with parents so they can help with homework. Carry out everyday routines consistently. Develop a reward system for good behavior, completing work on time and participating in class. Use visual and auditory reminders to change from one activity to the next. This may need to be done several times before the change is made. An egg timer is a good auditory tool that indicates a signal to begin or end an activity
  • Managing Constant Change
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Design teaching aids and lessons that are flexible. Add creativity to lessons and homework. Develop easy-to-use monitoring tools that are needs-based. Design lesson plans that can be modified to fit each student. Develop a set of resources and interventions that work.
  • Teaching Effectively
  • Use a multiple-scenario approach to developing lesson plans. Monitor and verify student responses to lessons. Evaluate and adapt lessons as necessary. Use peers to review lesson plans and to develop ideas that might be applicable. Develop and maintain a pool of mentors. Keep a list of resources for teaching, lesson plans and professional development Set a professional development plan for yourself and track your goals Develop or implement a system that allows for easy and comprehensive data collection to help monitor and adapt lessons Gather some tricks of the trade from fellow teachers, including those who do not teach special education.
