Is it true that multitasking while studying improves students' concentration and learning?
Unclear. Several sources indicate that multitasking while studying is associated with reduced concentration and learning rather than improvement, but none directly tests whether multitasking improves concentration and learning, so the evidence only partially addresses the claim.
