2 Days in Metuchen, NJ –

Thank you to all of the dynamic dedicated educators in Metuchen, NJ – I can safely say that the 2 days on Everyday PBL and The Three Story Intellect – were the “greatest 2 days of my entire life!”

Here is link to the Power Points – By the way, if you would be so kind, post a comment or a reflection about your experience.

Thanks

Brian / Robin

Are You a Self-Interrupter?

Distraction in the technology age.

One interesting aspect of this penchant for combining tasks is that we seem to have lost the ability to single task. Glance around a restaurant, look at people walking on a city street, pay attention to people waiting in line for a movie or the theater, and you will see busily tapping fingers. We act as though we are no longer interested in or able to stay idle and simply do nothing. We appear to care more about the people who are available through our devices than those who are right in front of our faces. And perhaps more critically, we appear to have lost the ability to simply be alone with our thoughts.
