Although laptops, tablets, smart phones and other mobile devices allow for many benefits in terms of note-taking and accessing digital files in the higher education classroom, the fact that they also are home to a plethora of distractions may impede the academic goals of students and lecturers in higher education settings. However, research regarding the effects of Internet use on the "Google Generation" - the generation of students who have grown up with access to search engines and information on the Internet - suggests that specific behavioral traits have arisen in the Google Generation as a result of a lifelong proximity to the web. The implication that removing their connection to the Internet may cause negative effects on "Google Generation" students' concentration and therefore, performance, is an interesting idea that lecturers must take into consideration when trying to manage the classroom so that it is an optimal learning environment. A mixed methodology empirical investigation utilizing observations, a short test, detailed questionnaire, and a semi-structured interview were performed to look at how laptop and mobile device use in the classroom affected student performance. The main finding from this research was that the sample group did not match the Google Generation qualities described in publications by Rowlands & Nicholas.
