DIGITAL MULTY-TASKING AND STUDENTS LEARNING

This article contains an overview of some of the psychological and educational research on the impact of digital technologies in the classroom. The prevalence of mobile technology can create problems in teaching students. Mobile technologies generated multitasking have a different impact on cognitive ability and academic performance. Digital multitasking in the educational process occurs when the use of digital technologies in the classroom. In contrast to the well-known problem of information overload and task switching, digital multitasking has fundamentally new and therefore must be analyzed in a different conceptual field. This approach is based on the fact that a person is a cognitive system for processing information. Psychological studies show that there is a drop in productivity under certain conditions the use of students of mobile devices. It possible to identify a range of opinions from the complete negation of the multitasking capabilities to the approval of the inevitable changes in the brain (“digital psihomorfoz”) under the influence of human interaction with digital technology. Digital multitasking does not create fundamental obstacles learning. Nevertheless, we can safely conclude that shifting attention greatly increases the amount of time needed to complete the task. Distraction and time spent switching from task to task, will have a negative impact on the academic performance of students. The use of digital technology teacher creates a multitasking for the student. Specific application of digital technologies in one time or another class is determined by the goals set by the teacher. Using a mobile student in the audience may entail a negative effect on academic performance. Multitasking can qualitatively change the training as a student relies on different information processing systems, which differ in the degree of flexibility, ie, chooses what kind of organizing information to use in a particular case. The author concludes that the studies analyzed digital multitasking, a shift in the education systems and focus on the methodology operationalism attempts to apply the methodology of analytic philosophy of mind. This allows us to analyze the intentions, motives, qualia (phenomenal experience) involved in the educational process and, thus, define new conceptual framework of digital multitasking. In general, researcher` efforts to develop new theoretical analysis of the frameworks of digital multitasking is unlikely to can be considered successful.
