Thesis Statement: “Electronic devices should not be allowed in classrooms because it can greatly influence a student’s ability to stay focused while in school (attention span  distractions), while also electronic devices in the classroom can greatly hinder a student’s ability to fully engage and properly interact with others, which can lead to other more serious and complex issues down the road (lack of participation  isolation  possible mental health issues). And finally, heavy technology…

way of thinking that is more concerned about people and their habits (behaviour), and how to combine this with architecture, than what is common in architecture is typical for Industrial design. A tutor that is more concerned about the process, the human side and the experience of the whole graduation process is really an addition to the two ‘standard’ tutors of…

(2004) suggest that humans process information like computers. When senses are exposed to conflicting stimuli, the strongest cognitive process dominates the response. It is instinctive to read words as they are written, regardless of the color of the ink of the words because the cognitive process of reading, which is the processing of letters into words, dominates the response.
