Think You're Multitasking? Think Again

I read this posting at NPR recently and thought it offered good insight for discussions with our students about what is really going on when we put our attention to more than one thing at a time. As with digital literacy and our need to help children have a better grasp on what they need to know to make good decisions, I thought the information in this article that offers scientific discussion about Multitasking: A Human Delusion? would be useful for helping kids and adults rethink their behaviors.
