In a time where technology is an integral part of our lives an interesting article made its way into my inbox. Final exams are approaching and the ability to focus and actively study for an exam can have a direct impact on a student's grade in a course. Timely advice is included in this piece as to why we should teach our students how to focus for an extended period of time. Many students will say that their cell phones are not distractions for them. They argue that they help them study. In our office, we realize that is not the case for many students. In working with your student, please be mindful of their cell phone use during study time. We all want our students to perform to the best of their abilities- teaching them how to study and use their time wisely in an integral part of this process.
