Withitness

Educational jargon for being aware. Like knowing when students are on their phones in class.

Student:”What’s Withitness?”
Prof: “Being aware of what is going on in class.”
Student: “Why not just say awareness?”
Prof: “Because Withitness sounds better and we can act like we’re better than others by having jargon that only we understand.”
