Attention span during lectures: 8 seconds, 10 minutes, or more?
In the current climate of curriculum reform, the traditional lecture has come under fire for its perceived lack of effectiveness. Indeed, several institutions have reduced their lectures to 15 min in length based upon the "common knowledge" and "consensus" that there is a decline in students' attention 10-15 min into lectures. A review of the literature on this topic reveals many discussions re...
متن کاملAttention During Lectures: Beyond Ten Minutes
Many authors claim that students’ attention declines approximately 10 to 15 min into lectures. To evaluate this claim, we reviewed several types of studies including studies of student note taking, observations of students during lectures, and self-reports of student attention, as well as studies using physiological measures of attention. We found that the research on which this estimate is bas...

The Ellipsoid algorithm was developed by (formerly) Soviet mathematicians (Shor (1970), Yudin and Nemirovskii (1975)). Khachian (1979) proved that it provides a polynomial time algorithm for linear programming. The average behavior of the Ellipsoid algorithm is too slow, making it not competitive with the simplex algorithm. However, the theoretical implications of the algorithm are very importa...
متن کاملIschemic neurons in rat brains after 6, 8, or 10 minutes of transient hypoxic ischemia.
The incidence and distribution of ischemic (necrotic) neurons in the brains of rats 72 hr after hypoxic ischemia induced via asphyxiation is described and scored. Anesthetized Sprague-Dawley rats (10/group) were endotracheally intubated and had their airways occluded for 6, 8, or 10 min, which resulted, respectively, in approximately 3, 5, or 7 min of pulselessness (MABP < 10 mm Hg). Survival w...
متن کاملFive Seconds or Sixty?
The template theory presented in Gobet and Simon (1996a, 1998) is based on the EPAM theory (Feigenbaum & Simon, 1984; Richman et al., 1995), including the numerical parameters that have been estimated in tests of the latter; and it therefore offers precise predictions for the timing of cognitive processes during the presentation and recall of chess positions. This paper describes the behavior o...
