“kids today simply can not focus”

5 02 2009



“The ability to focus attention on important things is a defining characteristic of intelligence.”
- Robert J. Shiller

How many times have i heard teachers tell me that their students can’t focus?
More than i would like to recount.

Immersion by New York photographer Robbie Cooper is a four minute piece that proves those individuals wrong.  Kids can focus; in fact they can focus so well it can be a little scary.

What are they focussing on?  is the question that i find far more alarming.

Thanks to Bill for sharing this link with me.
