  • “focused on giving children a real voice in the broader, often very adult, discussion of future technologies and real-world problem solving.”
  • they can teach us not only about their own needs and desires, but also about our own future preferences and how technology might help us solve bigger, global problems
  • digital natives allow us to see unrestrained possibilities for Web-based developments
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • We found that today’s children intuit a very seamless connection between online and offline worlds
  • A strong trend in the pictures the children drew was a break down in the barrier between the physical and digital worlds, with children appearing to see no difference between ‘real’ and ‘computer-based’ activities.
  • today’s children see technological devices as a natural extension of themselves
  • Current initiatives include Trash to Treasure, another illustration-based study which looks to kids for new ways to recycle and manage waste

    This is a great article on what our students, the "Digital Natives" can teach us about technology! I have highlighted what I found to be the most interesting and insightful quotes from the article!

    Loved that video. Makes me wonder how I'm going to incorporate as much technology as I can into my own classroom.

      This is something that we should try to replicate either national or statewide in the United States. Maybe it's already been done?

    Interesting blog post/graphic about how digital natives use technology and how they might be better suited to using new technologies (& mobile learning) then non-digital natives. Does this mean that non-digital natives are then less able to teach digital natives then digital natives would be?

      This is exactly what was said about every technology that has gone before.  Is the Internet any different?

    So this isn't super educational, however it emphasizes the use of technology with children from an early age. We've seen lots of youtube videos of 15 month old babies using iPads and iPhones (my nephew included!) - yet here it is reinforced on a TV commercial.

    similar to the one done at the University level. The theme here is "engage me" to motivate and inspire teachers to use technology in engaging ways

    A great video that shows the extent to which students today are digital natives.
  • Emily VanDerhoff on 12 Sep 11
     
    Good find, Sharon. I think this really adds to the metaphor that digital natives are "native speakers" of technology. Much like native speakers of a language can use complex grammar without thinking about it or knowing the labels that linguists place on it, digital natives are easily using complex technology oblivious to all the research the "digital immigrants" are doing to try to understand it.
