You gotta pay attention, you can't multitask otherwise your attention just drifts. 2. Take breaks, its natural your attention goes elsewhere after an hour, its why they have breaks on campus after an hour. 3. Take notes while your watching to keep your interest up high. I don't know if this is any good for you or not, I just found it worked for me :) One thing I found when listening to online lectures (having done a lot of Open Uni I know this), there are a few strategies in surviving watching lectures at home:

I also find 1.5x is OK, and 2x too fast. I used to do the building of the video (with slides) manually and listened to myself at 1.5 to get it done. It does kind of work. Great to have you back in 2001!, looking forward to reading your blog all semester. POD Great post – thanks for blogging. I also find 1.5x is OK, and 2x too fast.
