While Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) have tremendous potential to support positive teaching and learning, we must also be mindful of the potential negative consequences of the intensive use of such technologies. Evidence suggests that students are susceptible to anxiety through the use of ICT and distraction by others using ICTs in the classroom. Technology-mediated interruptions (i.e. \u201ctechnorruptions\u201d) can have negative consequences on users and can affect others surrounding them. A significant proportion of students use ICTs for texting, gaming, social networking, and personal purposes in the classroom, which may distract the teacher and other students, and detriment learning. It is thus critical to rigorously study this phenomenon in the classroom to understand its impact on the educational process.<\/p>\n

Traditionally, research in human computer interaction (HCI) has taken a behavioural perspective, in which perceptions are measured through self-reported questionnaires and interviews. Research using such traditional methods yields significant insights; however, these tools have major shortcomings due to inherent biases.  <\/span>Recently, researchers are realizing the major benefits that physiological measures and brain activity measures offer in helping to understand human behaviour.  <\/span>In our proposed research, we plan to triangulate neurophysiological observations in conjunction with traditional HCI methods.  <\/span>In our neurophysiological HCI research lab, we will simulate a variety of face-to-face and virtual educational settings in which participants (i.e., students, teachers) experience technorruptions. We anticipate that this investigation will significantly enrich our understanding of technostress implications on student-student and student-teacher relationships, as well as impacts on their attention, engagement, and learning.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
