| Summary: | We live in a world where human attention is exposed to thousands of stimuli shorter than the proverbial attention span of a goldfish in a fishbowl. A famous Microsoft study found that since 2000, the average human attention span has dropped from 12 seconds to 8 seconds. It also applies to Gen Z and the ALPHA generation members, often called the "second-screen generation" since it is their nature to use multiple screens simultaneously. These young people find it challenging to filter out irrelevant stimuli - and their inability to concentrate fully impairs their study and work performance. Therefore, educators are looking for ways to engage their students and help them learn more efficiently. Nowadays, a promising trend is AI-powered immersive learning, which is enabled by New Age Technologies (NATs). This conceptual study explores how immersive learning powered by NATs can address the challenges posed by diminishing attention spans and multitasking behaviors among Gen Z and Generation Alpha students. The study examines the potential of immersive learning environments to create engaging, interactive, and personalized educational experiences that capture attention and improve focus. Immersive learning can transform abstract concepts into hands-on experiences by integrating NATs, fostering more profound understanding and long-term retention. The paper proposes an Imersive Learning Framework for designing and implementing immersive learning experiences in educational settings. It discusses the benefits and challenges of this approach, ultimately aiming to inspire new pedagogical strategies aligning with the needs of a digitally native generation. |
