Beyond Digital Distraction - Educating Today's Cyber Student

This book shares a wealth of educational stakeholder viewpoints about digital distraction from a 1:1 technology integrated high school. Data was collected before, during, and after the start of COVID-19, which provides a unique view into integrated learning and its transformation since the pandemic. The author conducted interviews with both teachers and students who also provided logs of their technology use, allowing for a qualitative and quantitative understanding of digital distraction. Through this insight, the author explores the triggers of digital distraction and strategies to help mitigate the phenomenon.
