Introducing the Digital Learning Quadrants - 5 views

  •  
    An alternative schema to the "digital native" vs. "digital immigrant" dichotomy. Emphasis is placed upon one's own adaptation to technology-rich culture using the axes of "access" and "participation" to form a classification quadrant.

    I like this schema! (I tend to like anything that moves away from rigid, binary-type either/or dichotomies, where we are either include/excluded, with few options for growth and movement.) I am really enjoying BlendKit2012 and only wish I had more time to explore.
