Learning in stretches of 3-7 minutes matches the working memory capacity and attention spans of humans

ML is the need of the hour because of the way the average modern learner functions in his daily life.

Here’s what a study carried out by the UCI has found:

• Your employee works on a task for about 11 minutes before he is interrupted by a ring or ding of the phone, a popping email, or his co-worker who has come up to his desk.
• Within that span of 11 minutes, he engages in multiple short and quick tasks that average about 3 minutes each.
• If the task involves consuming digital information, he spends just 20 seconds browsing one piece of content before he clicks or flicks through to the next.
