Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants - Some Thoughts from the Generation Gap - 0 views

  • describe the generation gap separating today's students (the "Digital Natives") from their teachers (the "Digital Immigrants").
  • Digital Natives are used to receiving information really fast. They like to parallel process and multi-task.
  • Prensky's analogy struck a chord for me. I could easily identify with the 12-year-old boy who moves with his family to the "new world," quickly assimilates into the new culture, and learns to speak without an accent.

  • Prensky argues that the gap between Digital Natives and Digital Immigrants is the fundamental cause of the alleged "decline of education in the US," and he contends that our current educational system has not been designed to serve today's students
  • Digital Immigrants are attempting to teach the Digital Natives with methods that are no longer valid;
  • I find it hard to believe that neurological structures could change to such a dramatic extent from one generation to the next.
  • we may be doing them a disservice to de-emphasize "legacy" content such as reading, writing, and logical thinking, or to say that the methodologies we have used in the past are no longer relevant.

  • was found with the German high school teacher Alexander Kapp in 1833.
  • ‘is built upon two central, defining attributes: First, a conception of learners as self-directed and autonomous; and second, a conception of the role of the teacher as facilitator of learning rather than presenter of content’
  • Knowles’ basic assumptions is that becoming adult means becoming self-directed.

      Classroom management was another challenge, says 20-year veteran  teacher Rob Warneke: "Kids need to  be trained and guided to stay on task,  work collaboratively, solve their own  problems, be disciplined," he says.  "This is harder than making everyone  be quiet during a lecture. Thinking  and learning can be quite noisy!"

      Although most adults are aware of their own  increasing use of computers, mobile technology, and  the Internet as more than 70% of adults in general  and 80% of Generation X adults use the Internet each  day (eMarketer, 2004, 2011), many are surprised at  the use of the Internet and social media sites by  young children. Time spent on the Internet among 2- to 11-year-olds increased 63% from 2004 to 2009  (Nielsen, 2009).

      They worry about the lack of resources including  technology, time, and technology support; school  leadership and professional development; their own  knowledge and skills; and their own fear of  technology. However, even with these concerns,  digital and media technologies are evolving and  necessary to prepare students to understand and  adjust to the new literacy demands of the present and  future (Barone & Wright, 2008)
