Guidelines for a Teaching Approach Tailored to Attentional Development in Primary School

Abstract

Talking about attention in learning is essential. In humans, attentional capacity develops gradually and varies from one student to another. This diversity of attention in the classroom calls for varied, flexible, and engaging teaching methods. Learning landscapes are an effective strategy: they personalize the process, respect individual pacing, and foster autonomy. Attention improves when there is motivation and a strong connection with the teacher, both of which contribute to deeper and more meaningful learning.
