Discussion

  • technological transformation in the 1970s > age of computers
  • digital natives, digital immigrants, digital settlers
  • term digital natives for people born after 1980
  • understanding technology > missleading use of language
  • which degree of knowledge do you need to be a native?
  • cannot be linked to the birth date > not all children are natives
  • literacy > learning is not yet understanding
