short attention span

Todays students have been brought up where all media tries to give as much info as they can into as small a time spot as possible. It almost seems that they are trying to give us a subliminal flash of information to get their point across. Wouldn't that be fun to try! It is no wonder that the students can't listen or sit still for more than a few minutes. We have the job of trying to slow them down and get the information into their heads. Short lectures, followed by demos and hands on practice takes the main points to them and helps them understand the subjects we are teaching.
