Abaté(professor of electrical and computer engineering technology at Onondaga Community CollegeNew York) summarized the learning situation as follows 5.“When I use the term “multitasking,” I refer to an attempt by individuals to engage in severaltasks in rapid linear succession (rather than simultaneously) where at least one of the tasks is aconceptual learning activity……Thus, when a person is distracted, habitual learning actuallytakes over from declarative learning. In this sense, the two types of learning appear to competewith each other. And because procedural learning is more limited in applicability thandeclarative learning, it is “inferior” learning, to
