Abstract
We are what we pay attention to. What does that mean when our attention, and that of our students, is being hacked every five seconds by smartphones and other devices? Much of what we assign now requires reading on computers, phones, and tablets. How does this affect learning? All is not lost. We must ADAPT to this new reality in order to support our students. This workshop will present the latest information on how we can manage and thrive while living with attention-stealing technology. We’ll cover practical classroom management, electronic (etext)/screen reading and study, and modern time management to help students (and faculty!) with this specific issue that affects every class. You’ll walk away with solutions you can implement immediately.
