A master's thesis at the College of Education for Human Sciences at the University of Basrah examined mind wandering and its relationship to the method of teaching via electronic platforms among third-year students in the colleges of education.
The thesis of researcher Zainab Thaer Hassan aims to identify the level of mind wandering among third-year students in the colleges of education at the University of Basrah.
The thesis included the construction of two tools for measuring mind wandering and the teaching methods used, based on theoretical literature and previous studies.
The thesis concluded that the large number of distractions around the student at home may lead to the distraction of the mind and thus to mental wandering. The less interaction between the student and the teacher during the lecture may lead to a general weakness in attention and concentration.
