Helping Children To Stay Focused On Learning

-


 In today's fast-paced world of technology, staying focused on learning can be a significant challenge for children. With numerous distractions and competing priorities, it is easy for children to lose sight of their educational goals. However, with the right strategies and mindset, children can overcome these obstacles and achieve success. The first step to helping children stay focused on learning is to identify the underlying causes of their lack of focus. Is it due to lack of interest in the subject matter? Is it as a result of distractions and competing priorities? Once the underlying causes are identified, parents and caregivers can develop targeted strategies to address the issues. For example, if a child is struggling with a particular subject, providing an additional support or resources can help to build his/ her confidence and motivation. 

Creating a conducive learning environment is also essential for helping children stay focused. This can include providing a quiet and comfortable space for studying, minimizing distractions, and encouraging regular breaks to help maintain focus. In Japan, for example, classrooms are designed to promote a calm and focused learning environment, with features such as natural light and minimal clutter. Setting clear goals and expectations can also help children stay focused on learning. By setting specific, measurable, and achievable goals, children can develop a sense of purpose and direction, which can help to motivate them stay focused. In Finland, for example, students are encouraged to set their own learning goals and work towards achieving them, with teachers providing support and guidance along the way.

In addition to these strategies, technology can also be a powerful tool for promoting learning and focus. Educational apps, games, online resources can provide engaging and interactive learning experiences, that cater to different styles and needs. In South Korea, for example, technology is widely used in classrooms to enhance learning and engagement, with students using digital tools to collaborate, create, and present their works. 

Finally, helping children stay focused on learning requires a comprehensive approach that addresses the underlying causes of their lack of focus, provides a supportive learning environment and encourages motivation and engagement. By working together, parents, caregivers, authority, and children can develop effective strategies to promote learning and achievement, and help children reach their full potential. With consistency, patience, and the right support, every child can achieve an academic success preparatory to comfortable and prosperous life.

Menace Of Parental Estrangement In The World

Parental estrangement is a painful and complex issue that affects millions of families across all latitudes of the world, with disastrous implications for emotional distress, social isolation, loneliness, and long-lasting consequences for elderly parents, and their adult children. Wherever you go, you will see lonely elderly parents who lack food, clothes, shelter, and healthcare delivery services. Their adult sons and daughters are in the cities of their own countries, or have even migrated to other far away countries in quest of greener pastures to survive. Their hungry and helpless aged parents at the rural areas are depending on them for survival, whereas their children in the cities are earnestly struggling to succeed in the face of harsh economic conditions. Many of these adult children in the cities who have elderly parents at home are unemployed. Many of them receive very small wages at the end of the month. Their wages are unable to meet the financial needs of the nuclear fami...

Coping With A Resistant And Toxic Partner In The Family

 Family dynamics are complex and challenging issues, especially when dealing with a resistant and toxic husband or wife. The emotional toll of living under the same roof with someone who is resistant to change and toxic in conducts and behaviours can be very painful and frustrating, affecting not only the involved spouse but also the children and other family members. A resistant and toxic partner can exhibit behaviours such as emotional manipulation, gaslighting, and blame-shifting. A resistant and toxic husband or wife is always right ( in his/ her own evaluation and reasoning), unwilling indeed to take responsibility of his/ her actions. Rather than coming down from his/ her high horse to apologize for his/ her fault, he/ she will begin to shift the blame to the partner or any other member of the family. He or she feels that he/ she cannot do anything wrong or faulty. This behaviour can be incredibly damaging, leading to feelings of anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem....
