Dr. Jessica Massonnié, School of Education and Sociology, says that their "findings are important because they question the assumption that children who are perceived as difficult to engage in schoolwork 'do not care' about distractions'—they do particularly care. Results show that these children accumulate multiple risks to learning—they are more likely to have difficulties engaging with school work, staying still and focusing, while at the same time being more vulnerable to distractions.

Palm Beach County has asked teachers to complete a “Classroom Library Checklist” to see if their classroom library conforms with new legislation. Previously, most of these elementary school classrooms have had a robust book collection for students to choose from during silent reading time or when they finish an assignment early.
