Media multitasking affects productivity and the brain

Think that multitasking improves your performance and proves that you can juggle many things at once? Think again! A study at Stanford University has shown that media multitasking can affect your performance and damage the capacity of your brain. The Stanford study was designed to explore the effect of media multitasking on productivity. The way in which multitasking affects the brain activity indicates that ‘people who are regularly bombarded with several streams of electronic information do not pay attention, control their memory or switch from one job to another as well as those who prefer to complete one task at a time’.

The issue here is that people who are used to multitasking are not using their brain to its full potential and might end up with something that can be described as an underperforming mind

Those people who are constantly juggling several tasks at once, such as checking their inbox, writing emails and posting on or checking social media have a number of characteristics in common. They are easily distracted, being unable to switch between tasks effectively and often have thoughts and memories that are disorganized. Communication Professor Clifford Nass, who was involved in the Stanford study, has called such media multitaskers ‘suckers of irrelevancy’. The problem is not only that the performance of such people is affected. The issue here is that people who are used to multitasking are not using their brain to its full potential and might end up with something that can be described as an underperforming mind. Here is a list of the few negative effects that media multitasking has:

impairs performance

reduces productivity

lowers concentration

makes it more difficult to select relevant information

slows down the switching between tasks

Natural language learning (teacher not included)

Natural language learning without a teacher – is the name of the book I want to share with you today. At the end of this article, you’ll also be able to download it for free in PDF to check this method by yourself. I’m afraid that after this publication I’ll lose all my students because the method described here is extremely easy and effective. Even the author’s website doesn’t work anymore (as he probably became bankrupt after revealing this secret).

The author of this book is David Snopek, an American of Polish origin, who learned the Polish language individually as an adult. Without any courses, tutors, and textbooks, just by… reading Harry Potter!

No doubt, it wasn’t the only thing he did. But no rush. At first, a bit of theory.

Why this method works

David Snopek explains (and he’s not the first or even the second one who came to this conclusion) that at schools languages are taught like maths. They give you certain formulas to remember (grammar rules) and teach you to do sums (to make sentences) based on them. But it’s absolutely unnatural! Nobody uses their native language like this.

The thing is, you shouldn’t derive language from grammar because grammar is derived from language. Real-life language usage (comprehension, speaking) is an unconscious activity, it happens automatically.

Linguists claim that there is a special Language acquisition device  (LAD) in a human brain. It works when we receive information through reading or especially listening. At the same time the information should be understandable and interesting, and situation free from any stress.
