I disagree slightly with the conclusion below. I suggest we need to focus on how these devices translate into DHCP leases... which unfortunately does translate into concurrent use. A student may not be gazing into their smartphone while writing that big paper on their notebook... but they did just obtain leases for both. They may also have a third device watching hulu in the background.
