Abstract
The increase in connected devices in today’s learning environments places greater control in the hands of students as to how they use their time and attention. The connected devices combined with the popularity of social media and text based chat tools, have made it easier for students to multitask in the lecture-based classes. This paper expands an ongoing study that examines the effects of media multitasking, in particular, chatting while watching a taped lecture, on students’ attention, memory and learning.
