From the Paper:

"In Canada a class time period is 80 minutes which is 4 times more than what a student is able to maintain his concentration ability. Difficulty during classes is mostly maintaining concentration stable during the whole time. The attention phenomenon is outputted in a certain behavioral "picture" which is easily identified by the teacher with experience: the student that is paying attention may not move at all and have his eyes looking in the teachers' eyes and his ears placed on the sound waves trajectory , a face mimic which (dis)approves the teacher depending on the topic, while the student that does not pay attention has an empty, distant look in his eyes, talks to some peer about totally different things, is always agitated or bored, and pays a lot of attention towards the clock."
