Given the nature of tech-dependent students today both in the classroom and the virtual classroom, there is actually a MH condition called 'text-anxiety,' that I have found translates into the rapidity with which we answer their emails.

The Course Management System is a very important tool for both the students and the instructor and we should all know how to navigate it.
