I do agree that FB is a great tool to get back in touch with people that you don't really have time for daily interactions with, but when I took classes over the last couple of years, it would drive me bonkers when students were texting while professors were lecturing (because I had to keep hearing all the buzzing) and couldn't believe when students took calls during class. It was often difficult to get a computer in the lab and nearly impossible in the library because of FB and MySpace. |
Ah, phones attached to the walls. Raise your hand if they had rotary dials.
I agree that those are problems, but they're not communication or time-management problems. They're courtesy, respect and boundary problems.
