I wanted to see how our posture and attention shifted throughout class. There were three observable categories: number of hands on faces, number of phones on tables, and number of students looking at laptops. The frequency of each of the categories was calculated in 15 minute intervals both Tuesday (2\/11) and Thursday (2\/13).<\/p>\n<p>I predicted that people would get more tired (more hands touching faces) and people would lose attention (stare at their computers and phones) as class ensued. Those trends can be seen in some sections, but the trend is not perfectly linear.<\/p>\n<p>Also, I would like to note that some of the statistics might have been skewed because of our &#8220;fishbowl&#8221; session on Tuesday.<a href=\"http:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-11.png\" rel=\"lightbox[333]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-335\" src=\"http:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-11.png\" alt=\"Graph 1\" width=\"721\" height=\"431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-11.png 721w, https:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-11-300x179.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 721px) 100vw, 721px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-2.png\" rel=\"lightbox[333]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-336\" src=\"http:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-2.png\" alt=\"Graph 2\" width=\"720\" height=\"434\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-2.png 720w, https:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-2-300x181.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 720px) 100vw, 720px\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-3.png\" rel=\"lightbox[333]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-337\" src=\"http:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-3.png\" alt=\"Graph 3\" width=\"719\" height=\"431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-3.png 719w, https:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-3-300x180.png 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 719px) 100vw, 719px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-4.png\" rel=\"lightbox[333]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-338\" src=\"http:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-4.png\" alt=\"Graph 4\" width=\"771\" height=\"181\" srcset=\"https:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-4.png 1617w, https:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-4-300x71.png 300w, https:\/\/courses.digitaldavidson.net\/dig210\/files\/2015\/02\/Graph-4-1024x241.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 771px) 100vw, 771px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Tuesday and Thursday, I observed the tendencies of our classmates.
