Doodle about the notes. Draw pictures to help you remember what your professor is lecturing on.
Try bringing a easy snack or water/juice to class to help you not get bored. You don't want to draw attention or make a mess, but sometimes the act of chewing can help you concentrate. Dry cereal, raw almonds, or pretzels are some easy to eat snacks.
Decide if it's concentrating problems in general, or just being bored with school and the subjects you hate. If not, you may want to give some thought to if it's hard to get things done all the time....this may be just part of your personality or something else like ADD.
Regular exercise can help you mind destress which allows you to be able to concentrate better later. Sometime people like certain exercise that helps one focus such as yoga.
Ask your friends. School is one thing that is hard to concentrate on for a lot of people. Ask them if they have any tricks.
Have a cup of coffee in the morning when you wake up or on the way to shcool. Or drink energy drinks.
try eating a good breakfast. Get an energy bar . Ask if you can stand up if you are getting too sleeply.Try vitamin c or drink a mountain dew.....good luck
Lol. Everyone doodles in class, and most everyone daydreams, sleeps, or almost sleeps! It's natural.
I probably wont get an answer to this as you may not be paying attention to it any more, HA! Attention in class comes when a person is really interested in the subject being lectured about. Not paying attention occurs when you could care less what the proffesor says and your mind wanders off to some subject that is more interesting to you and more fun.
My father was a mule skinner in the pioneer west. He got the attention of his mules when they failed to hear his "gees" and "haws" by simply hitting them over the head with a six foot long two by four club. He would either threaten to do the same to us boys or actually hit us if he needed our attention. I remember in eightth grade a teacher would get the attention of boys in the back of the room who were sleeping or exchanging notes by simpy throwing an ink bottle at them. He was a good shot (our baseball coach) and he often hit them with it, They really paid attention after that.
Nowadays it is a capital crime almost to hit a kid so they have invented ADD or ADHD to cope with inattention. In this they don't hit you with a wooden club but with a chemical attention getting drug. I liked the old way the best.
What you have to do is get your interest in the subjects up. To do this it is often helpful to review the subject matter in your book or your previous days notes just before class and see how the prof follows up on the matters. The more varied the approach to a subject the more interesting it becomes and the better one pays attention and learns.
Hope this rambling answer helped, good mental health, peace and Love!
