a) Are you someone who normally listens to music while studying? Why or why not?
Yes! to me it helps me concentrait because it blocks out other noises. i just think its better for me to listen to my favorite song then other people talking or making some annoying sound.
b) During the Techbrarian Distraction Test was there any type of music that distracted you more than others? If so, explain why.
No. they were all okay but the last one with people wispering was really annoyin. i think that one was the most distracting to me.
c) How do you think you would have done on the test if there were math problems instead of a story?
i think it would be the same. hmm... maybe it would be a little harder but not because of the music.
*** EXTRA CREDIT (10 POINTS!) : Explain at least three ways you could change the Techbrarian Distraction Test to make it more like real life. Describe how each change might effect the results. For example, what would have happened if I added an instant message window on the side of the test?
i think would be like real life if:
i think if you would add all of this then itwould be just like a regular class in real life. this would be distracting.
- you had someones's cellphone ringing.
- you put someone stting next to you talking to you.
- you put someone randomly make a lot of noise.
if you put an instant message window on the side then it would be a ittle distracting. but not as mush as a loud class. =)
