They are confident that they can achieve bothpopularity and rapport with students, and excellence in teaching, advising, and otherstudent relations. However, unless already well seasoned as graduate assistants in dealingwith students, they are usually disillusioned as realities of undergraduate education sink in,for example, (1) some students don’t care about learning, (2) some students can be lessthan honest if expedient, and (3) many students play the system for maximum results

love, and how we attribute causality for the events in our lives.”Another source states that educators have noted a steady decline in level of participation, level of interestand level of motivation in their students, paralleled by an increase in a sense of entitlement1. This sense ofentitlement may be translated to a lack of responsibility and respect as seen in our students by themexpecting that the teachers do more –include entertain– and that they do less, that we are then responsiblefor their learning, and they are not. This may then cause more criticism of the courses and the activitiesfound within. “What did I get out of this?” in a personal sense, or “How is this useful to me right now?”.We have instances from our classroom experiences

No longer arethe manufacturers primarily targeting large research institutions or government-funded agenciesfor scientific research purposes, but instead put the majority of their efforts towards a generationof gamers and multi-media enthusiasts.
