Online education is an inevitable trend. With just a smartphone, a tablet, or a personal computer, anyone, from teenagers to middle-aged individuals, from schoolchildren to workers, can access any free or paid courses in every aspect of society from economics, politics, literature, history, etc. foreign languages; Learners are free to choose lecturers, duration, time, space, and learning concepts as long as it suits their needs. However, online education still harbors many limitations, especially the issue of student distraction during online learning. This article elucidates the impact of online learning on student focus and analyzes the necessity of an attention detection system when studying online. Through surveys, the results indicated that up to 82.57% of students frequently lose focus when engaging in online learning, and 100% of opinions from education experts concur on the limitations of online learning.
