I can tell you,
By Mzip

it is not just kids! I had to attend a computer training, very basic, just the other day and after about 20 min, I had tuned out the instructor and started surfing the internet! Of course, had it been interesting and informative, I might have paid better attention, but come on, I already know how to open a new word document, and save it, and create a new folder... Teach me something new!

I have found this holds true with my students as well. If I am teaching something new and interesting and making them interact, they are much more attentive than they are if I am rehashing the same ole thing or talking at them!
