On Wednesday, December 7 at 9am (MPB), we will meet again with HS parents to discuss the book, Stolen Focus by Johann Hari. We hope you can join us even if you have not been able to make it to this point. The book is about the breakdown of our ability to pay attention. Hari lays out a wide array of environmental factors at play in this decline: technology companies promote innovations to keep people glued to their screens; there’s a large-scale sleep deprivation issue and overall stress levels have increased.
Our conversations have been thoughtful and lively. We hope you can join us! Please contact jackiev@isb.ac.th if you have any questions.
