I swear I’m trying so hard to take this life seriously."Īnya revealed that she was notified by the teacher about her 9-year-old kid not paying attention in the class via emails.

Uju Anya, a linguistics professor at Penn State University, talked about her child being sent to Zoom detention for not paying attention. While we thought punishments are only confined to the four walls of a classroom, teachers have figured new ways to punish students on Zoom. A mother was rather exasperated to learn that her child was sentenced to “zoom detention” for not paying attention in the class. As a result of which, students are also facing “detentions”, not physical but zoom detention.
For students particularly, it is very difficult to remain focused with so many distractions around. While the teachers are struggling to hold the attention of the students during an online class, students to are experiencing Zoom fatigue.
