Now it seems students are surfing the Net, e- mailing and instant messaging in class when they should be paying attention to the professors. Can you hear a voice saying, "Do I need to separate you two?" So, the schools are spending truckloads of dollars on software and hardware that lets professors block Internet access, e-mails and IMs. Some professors at Bentley are enabled with technology that lets them snag a student's e-mail or IM and put it up on a big screen for the whole class to share. Between technology and humiliation, the problem shouldn't last long.
