I have noticed that the latest generation of students has become so involved with their phones that it sometimes seems imposable to seperat them it. At first I thought it was rude but I have come to notice that it dosn't mater what they are doing they are always messing with thier phones. I think it may come from the fact that they have always been doing more than one thing at a time. I don't think of it as rude anymore but it does create a chalange to get them to proform and take care of thier class work.
