Multitasking
Grassian (2009) states that students think they are “extremely technologically savvy,” but according to brain cognitive data they aren’t as “sophisticated as they would like to believe (p. 275). They may know their way around mobile devices but they often don’t know how to make an informed search, Grassian (2009) “students often feel their ‘Googling’ skills make them experts” at research (p. 281). Despite what they say they aren’t as successful at multi-tasking as they think. As if multitasking is something new in fact MIT data shows Millennials can’t focus or retain information well at all
