Attention Spa... Ooh, a squirrel!

Are attention spans better or worse than they've been in the past? Explain your opinion.

Preston

They are worst because we have so many more things to destruct us and entail us. We either get distracted or just really don’t care.

Blazen Burgess

10/24/2018 01:16:58 pm

Interesting take on that one.

Blazen Burgess

10/24/2018 01:16:22 pm

I’d say my attention span as gotten better because I know when I have to listen and when I don’t have to listen.

Preston

10/24/2018 01:18:08 pm

A very true statement.

Griffin Mylan

10/24/2018 01:18:45 pm

I respectively disagree

Aidan Adams

10/24/2018 01:19:58 pm

I respectively agree

Caden Caywood

10/24/2018 01:24:13 pm

Interesting view on the topic

Preston

10/24/2018 01:16:43 pm

They are worst because we have so many more things to destract us and entertain us. We either get distracted or just really don’t care.

Emma Dahle

10/24/2018 01:19:10 pm

That’s true we do have more to distract us with.

Ariana

10/24/2018 01:16:50 pm

I think that they are worse than they were in the past. People have trouble focusing more now than ever.

Faith

10/24/2018 01:21:49 pm

I agree.

Chayla Slavin

10/24/2018 01:22:33 pm

Very true.

Sam

10/24/2018 01:17:08 pm

I think they are worse because there is so much going on around us that people can’t stay focused for long periods of time. No one pays attention to what they are doing because there is always something bigger and better going on.

Ariana

10/24/2018 01:17:36 pm

I agrees

Avery

10/24/2018 01:17:59 pm

I agree

Sammy H.

10/24/2018 01:23:08 pm

I agree with this.

Chayla Slavin

10/24/2018 01:23:55 pm

Yes, there definitely are many distractions around us.

Avery

10/24/2018 01:17:21 pm

Our attention spans have gotten worse. We always have so many things going on at once. We never have enough time to focus on one things for a long period of time.

Ariana

10/24/2018 01:18:21 pm

Ariana agrees!

Dillon

10/24/2018 01:18:40 pm

I agree. Nobody has enough time to focus on one thing.

Eli

10/24/2018 01:19:04 pm

I agree with your point of view.

Sam

10/24/2018 01:20:16 pm

Sam agrees as well

Emma Dahle

10/24/2018 01:20:28 pm

I agree we have so much going on we just can’t focus on one thing.

Taylee Matthews

10/24/2018 01:22:22 pm

Yes very true I agree

Faith

10/24/2018 01:22:45 pm

I agree completely

Dillon

10/24/2018 01:17:27 pm

Attention spans are worse now than they were in the past. There are so many more distractions now days like phones and other electronics. It is hard for people to focus when they have something buzzing in their pocket

Griffin Mylan

10/24/2018 01:18:15 pm

Now that’s a good point right there

Sam

10/24/2018 01:18:27 pm

There are a lot of distractions.

Eli

10/24/2018 01:20:04 pm

I like you illustration with the phone buzzing.

Emma Dahle

10/24/2018 01:17:36 pm

They are worse since the beginning of time. They had to wait and watch fo everything in the past but now everyone wants it right now or they will lose interested.

Preston

10/24/2018 01:18:58 pm

True

Jordan

10/24/2018 01:19:26 pm

I agree with you.

Griffin Mylan

10/24/2018 01:17:45 pm

Attention spans are worse now than the past because we are so use to seeing something new everyday that we are kind of desensitized to new information and don’t find it as interesting.

Blazen Burgess

10/24/2018 01:18:21 pm

This is a great point.

Taija

10/24/2018 01:24:31 pm

So true

Aidan Adams

10/24/2018 01:17:52 pm

idk I wasn’t alive in the past and I have no archives that tell me if people paid more attention back in the day, I think they’d be worse cuz you’d be for example, driving your wagon thru Nebraska and whilst your watching ur head of cattle u have to stay on the trail and look for Navajos and stuff tryna kill ya and steal ur herd.

Treygan

10/24/2018 01:25:49 pm

I agree them darn Navajos will get ya

Eli

10/24/2018 01:17:59 pm

Are attention span is shorter than it used to be. People used to be able to sit and read a whole book but now people get distracted by phones and other things.

Avery

10/24/2018 01:19:11 pm

I agree with you Eli

Dillon

10/24/2018 01:19:26 pm

There are a lot of things that distract us.

Johnny

10/24/2018 01:24:19 pm

Kids these days aren’t as in to reading as they used to be

Jordan

10/24/2018 01:18:34 pm

I feel like they are worse because there are a lot more things to distract us and we are always thinking about other things.

Lani Belgarde

10/24/2018 01:19:10 pm

Attention spans are worse because everyone is in such a rush anymore because of work or kids. And for kids especially technology has made our attention spans worse because everything is very fast pace and straight to the point

Jordan

10/24/2018 01:20:39 pm

Kids and teens are addicted to technology. They probably would be lost without it.

Sammy H.

10/24/2018 01:24:48 pm

Technology has made it harder.

Treygan

10/24/2018 01:19:19 pm

Our attention spans have reduced I think because we can do so many more things that desract us from our original task.

Will

10/24/2018 01:23:48 pm

I totally agree, great job!

Sammy H.

10/24/2018 01:19:48 pm

I believe it has gotten worse. There are more distractions now a days like phones, music, commercials, etc. These make it hard to focus.

Faith

10/24/2018 01:20:09 pm

Attentions spans are worse than they have been in the past. People have really bad attention spans now, they can barely pay attention to one thing for a couple seconds without getting distracted

Brooke

10/24/2018 01:24:41 pm

I agree our minds just go somewhere if we don’t want to pay attention

Miriam

10/24/2018 01:20:23 pm

In a way we aren’t as patient when it comes to buying things and wanting them right away. But in day today attention spans it depends on the person and how they are raised and what them need to pay attention to.

Will

10/24/2018 01:20:34 pm

They have been worse then the past, we are now so focused on our phone and technology that we can’t pay attention to the real life events happening around us.

Johnny

10/24/2018 01:22:33 pm

Technology has been a large part

Caden Caywood

10/24/2018 01:23:41 pm

Good comment and point of view buddy

Taylee Matthews

10/24/2018 01:21:05 pm

It’s gotten worse everyone is addicted to the technology now a days. Everyone is always getting distracted and not staying focused

Miriam

10/24/2018 01:22:27 pm

That is so true

Brooke

10/24/2018 01:23:41 pm

I agree with you everybody gets distracted way to much

Johnny

10/24/2018 01:21:17 pm

Attention spans these days are much worse

Johnny

10/24/2018 01:22:10 pm

Kids are growing up with instant gratification and don’t want to wait.

Taija

10/24/2018 01:22:53 pm

That’s very true

Brooke

10/24/2018 01:21:42 pm

No it’s gotten worse these past years because nobody pays attention since their minds wonder off so much for random stuff or with technology.

Taylee Matthews

10/24/2018 01:23:55 pm

This is so try’s brooks I agree

Miriam

10/24/2018 01:24:02 pm

Yes that is what our world struggles with today

Chayla Slavin

10/24/2018 01:21:56 pm

I think that they are worse than they used to be. Life is moving in a faster pace and we don’t often spend too much time on one thing. We have no reason to be patient and have long attention spans because by the time we start getting bored with something we are already onto the next.

Taija

10/24/2018 01:22:16 pm

They have gotten worse. We have so many distractions, one of them is social media. Most of us would rather be on our phones then pay attention to what’s actually going on.

Caden Caywood

10/24/2018 01:22:39 pm

I think it really depends on what it is you’re supposed to be paying attention on. Kids now a days will pay attention to their phones all day yet can’t focus enough to get a project done in school. Also, in the past young men would work hard to get a job done and wouldn’t stop until it was finished. It really just depends on what it is.

Jaicei

10/25/2018 01:19:56 pm

I think it’s gotten worse because back in the old days people relied on face to face contact to talk to one another, but in today’s society all we have to do is pick up a device and send someone a message in seconds.
