May I Have Your Attention, Please? There's an App for That

Tuesday, October 15 | 1:15PM–2:15PM CT | Board 106, Poster Area, Halls F1, F2, Level 3
Session Type: Poster Session
Delivery Format: Poster Session
It's not easy being a student in times of attention merchants. Why give attention to your study when you can check your phone? We help students cope. We educate them and fight fire with fire with the Attention app, which we created and designed for students to help them manage their scarce attention.

Outcomes: Understand the way attention merchants try to grab our attention and the attention of our students * Learn how to educate students about balancing their attention between their phones and study * Discuss policies for students and employees for managing attention and discuss the implementation of a study attention app
