Law professor who went back to school -> everyone multitasking on laptop. Also, very engaged in lectures -> different way of thinking in a generation. Not necessarily distracted by other things being looked at. Self-sabotage is start thinking about how to get out of doing something early. Negative outlook sticks with them -> less motivated to prepare in future. Kids doing poorly see themselves as doing better than actually are.
