<p>Ah, you certainly do have points. There are differences between lectures and discussions/me doing the lectures. The former is passive, the latter is active. I have trouble maintaining focus when I’m learning passively. Active learning, however, is a different matter (in which it’s easier to maintain focus). The nation’s huge problem with ADD may be rooted in the problem with the educational system - in that students are forced to learn passively - even when the same students can maintain their focus on say, computer games and online forums (which are active and more user-centric). The Internet is the joy to us all. </p>
<p>But yeah, there is certainly such a concern.</p>
