Attention spans are a lot worse nowadays because i feel like people have technology that they can decide to use instead.

Tia Matthews

I agree technology is distracting

I like how you put their choices into the situation.

Sara Deschaine

I totally agree. People are always on their phones.

Hannah Rich

11/9/2020 01:20:40 pm

I agree that people are deciding to have a low attention span

I feel that my attention span has gotten worse than it was in the past due to having my phone as a distraction.

Sara Deschaine

11/9/2020 01:17:17 pm

I agree. Technology can be very distracting.

Anika

11/9/2020 01:17:28 pm

I had the same idea

Paisley

in my opinion they are worse because they want to be on their phone and talk to friends or think they have better things to do

True

11/9/2020 01:16:00 pm

So true

Anika

11/9/2020 01:17:17 pm

I agree

Anna

Attention spans are probably worse now days due to technology.

Haylee

I like what you said.

Shayla

I agree, technology can be very distracting

In my opinion, I think attention spans have generally gotten worse over the decades. That's because humans invented more and more constructs that could be considered by some to be distracting and unnecessary.

Riley

11/9/2020 01:17:11 pm

I agree with that.

Shayla

11/9/2020 01:17:42 pm

I agree with that

Audrey

11/9/2020 01:18:37 pm

I agree that there are more things that are unnecessary distractions.

Tia Matthews

11/9/2020 01:14:35 pm

I feel like it’s worse because people are more distracted nowadays. There is now social media and that can be distracting. Also I feel like people just don’t care some days to listen.

Audrey

11/9/2020 01:17:33 pm

I agree that social media is a distraction.

Jada

11/9/2020 01:17:33 pm

I really like how you said this.

Michael Gebhardt

Pretty much anything with technology can be distracting.

Chloie

11/9/2020 01:19:32 pm

I think it’s because we have so many things to entertain us.

Hannah Rich

11/9/2020 01:22:37 pm

I like that you noted that listening isnt a skill most people have. And that they are choosing not to care.

Shayla

11/9/2020 01:14:59 pm

I think that people’s attention span has gotten worse because we have more things in our world today that distract us from what we are trying to focus on. We think that there is always something bigger and better which can cause us to go off topic or not want to pay attention to what is in front of us at the moment.

Tia Matthews

11/9/2020 01:15:35 pm

I agree with that

Cayden Logan

11/9/2020 01:16:47 pm

Could this be considered as paying more attention to the future than the present? If so, is it really a bad thing?

Jada

11/9/2020 01:17:08 pm

I agree with what you said.

Michael Gebhardt

11/9/2020 01:19:10 pm

I like how you said something bigger and better can distract us.

Haylee

11/9/2020 01:15:19 pm

I think it’s better because I was super talkative when I was little. Now I’m a lot more quiet.

Cayden Logan

11/9/2020 01:18:50 pm

How does the volume/pace you speak at correlate to attention span? I know a couple people who have wondered attention spans, but are very loud.

Sara Deschaine

11/9/2020 01:15:56 pm

I feel like our attention span have gotten worse. There are many different things that we have now that we didn’t have before that takes our attention away. Phones are one of those things because everyone has one and it takes our attention away.

Andrew Sessions

11/9/2020 01:20:12 pm

I agree

Riley

11/9/2020 01:16:15 pm

I think are attention span has decreased. We don't seem to be able to focus for more than ten minutes, because we have so many distractions.

Chloie

11/9/2020 01:17:54 pm

Yeah it’s like we need to move on faster from one thing to another

Michael Gebhardt

11/9/2020 01:16:24 pm

I think they are worst then they have been in the past. I think this because nowadays there are more and more things that distract us each day than there was in the past. Including technology or other things that easily distract us.

Riley

11/9/2020 01:18:18 pm

I agree technology is pretty distracting.

Andrew Sessions

11/9/2020 01:21:23 pm

I agree technology can be very distracting

Audrey

11/9/2020 01:16:27 pm

I believe attention spans are worse because there are more things to distract us from what we're doing such as technology.

Chloie

11/9/2020 01:17:16 pm

I think they are better because I could watch tiktoks all day.

Piper

11/9/2020 01:19:33 pm

I can see how you think that it would be better. But don’t you think that doing something productive like having a job would be better?

Kali

11/9/2020 01:20:23 pm

That's true tik tok is pretty addicting

Piper

11/9/2020 01:17:24 pm

Attention spans have gotten marginally worse since phones and other technology has come out. Phones have caused the need for instant gratification, such as needing a response as soon as you send the text. Or having to wait for something to load. Somethings that would cause millennials to seriously throw a fit would be having to write a letter and waiting for the response. We expect everything to come when we want it to and never realize that not everything is about us and waiting it part of life.

Kali

11/9/2020 01:21:26 pm

I agree and like your explanation

Kali earl

11/9/2020 01:18:08 pm

I would say attention spans are worse because there is so much more to distract people than in the past. There is phones, computers,TV, amusement parks, and more that were not offered in the past.

Hannah Rich

11/9/2020 01:18:51 pm

I think that attention spans are worse. People are always up and having to do something, constantly remaining busy. Especially with today's technology, people are always on a phone or computer. Rarely do you see someone with a ton of patience to simply sit and wait.

Piper

11/9/2020 01:20:01 pm

I like how you said this.

Andrew Sessions

11/9/2020 01:19:04 pm

Attention spans are worse nowadays because there are way more things that can distract you. Such as electronic devices, which can be very distracting.
