  • he Digital Immigrant is the latecomer in the technology revolution and as with any immigrant, there is a certain “accent” that is readily apparent to the native speakers.
  • still try and work around or second guess technology
  • One major difference between Natives and Immigrants is the way we process information.
  • ...7 more annotations...
  • Immigrants grew up learning one topic at a time, everything in order, following a linear and logical progression, but Natives do not think that way.
  • Another major difference between Immigrants and Natives is a sense of identity (DigitalNative.org, 2007).  To Digital Immigrants, cell phones, emails, and the Internet are just tools that can be used to reach someone or set up a “real” face-to-face meeting. Natives look at the same technologies and see an extension of who they are.
  • Digital communication is just as real to Natives as face-to-face meetings are to Immigrants.   
  • Many Immigrants consider education as the process that forces as much information into students’ heads as possible so they can regurgitate a laundry list of facts at a moment’s notice. Natives donotconsider this an education.
  • Immigrants should be willing to teach Natives how to find important information and put less emphasis on forcing the students to learn exact information.

  • Sidetrack opponents with name calling and ridicule.
  • 6. Hit and Run. I
  • 7. Question motives.
  • 8. Invoke authority.
  • 9. Play Dumb.
  • 10. Associate opponent charges with old news.
  • 11. Establish and rely upon fall-back positions.
  • 12. Enigmas have no solution.
  • 13. Alice in Wonderland Logic.
  • 14. Demand complete solutions.
  • 15. Fit the facts to alternate conclusions.
  • 16. Vanishing evidence and witnesses.
  • 17. Change the subject.
  • 18. Emotionalize, Antagonize, and Goad Opponents.
  • 19. Ignore proof presented, demand impossible proofs. This is perhaps a variant of the “play dumb” rule. Regardless of what material may be presented by an opponent in public forums, claim the material irrelevant and demand proof that is impossible for the opponent to come by (it may exist, but not be at his disposal, or it may be something which is known to be safely destroyed or withheld, such as a murder weapon). In order to completely avoid discussing issues may require you to categorically deny and be critical of media or books as valid sources, deny that witnesses are acceptable, or even deny that statements made by government or other authorities have any meaning or relevance.
  • 20. False evidence. Whenever possible, introduce new facts or clues designed and manufactured to conflict with opponent presentations as useful tools to neutralize sensitive issues or impede resolution.
  • 21. Call a Grand Jury, Special Prosecutor, or other empowered investigative body.
  • 22. Manufacture a new truth. Create your own expert(s), group(s), author(s),
  • leader(s) or influence existing ones willing to forge new ground via scientific, investigative, or social research or testimony which concludes favorably. In this way, if you must actually address issues, you can do so authoritatively.
  • 23. Create bigger distractions.
  • 24. Silence critics.
  • sh. If you are a key holder of secrets or otherwise overly illuminated and you
  • think the heat is getting too hot, to avoid the issues, vacate the kitchen.
