Wednesday’s Tutorial:

Conviction: overwhelmed by good crunchy techy info

Serene, mikh, zam and concept shared with us all about the social media info such as the term ‘Continuous partial attention‘.

Quite a mouthful isn’t it? To shorten it down, I shall call it CPA.

CPA is normally used to describe someone who diversed their attention span as well as the desire not to miss anything. It is different from multi-tasking, apparently. The latter is suppose to be you motivated to complete everything fast and altogether.

One example of CPA would be using facebook when you are supposed to be paying 100% attention during class.  (Mikh’s attempt to use that as an example failed) lol.

I haven’t quite get the differences btw both though but i will always remember some real life examples whereby we have fully exercised CONTINUOUS PARTIAL ATTENTION :D


In the act of taking pics via webcam + snacking during lesson. Definite Continuous Partial Attention moment. Sweet.<3
