I admit that I did not know what a "nomophobe" was until the
iPhone 6/6+ "feature" of turning the iPhone into an iPod (i.e.,
it had disconnected the phone from the telephone network
among things). ABC News has a brief article on this; see:
http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/nomophobes-cope-ios-bugs-apple-iphone/story?id=25751532
So, if any of your students appear in class sweaty, jittery,
and distracted, it could be that they're going through iPhone
withdrawal and are suffering from nomophobia ("no more
mobile phone phobia"). The fastest solution might be to
get them an android phone. ;-)
