International research indicates that the accelerating development of digital devices as well as the flood and diversity of the information they convey transforms the reading, thinking and learning habits of the digital generations. Hyperattention is one striking consequence. I developed a method (the HY-DE model) on the basis of an interdisciplinary approach, and it is meant to deal with this phenomenon: i.e., to harness hyperattention so that deep attention, which hyper attention suppresses in the electronic learning process, could again be liberated and functional in a meaningful way in the learning process.
