Digital Natives vs. Digital Immigrants

I'll have to talk about digital/media competency and internet 2.0 , among other topics one of these days ...

Well ... digital natives vs. digital immigrants.

READ THE ARTICLE BY MARC PRENSKY (2001).

There are those who do not agree with Prensky's analogy of natives/immigrants. However, it is an interesting concept and one we need to understand as you may come across it at some point.

I heard the phrase DIGITAL NATIVES and thought it was a catchy idea. However, I started searching more and found that there are those who refute Prensky's idea. So, I discovered it is far from being a widely accepted concept. This does, however, not necessarily invalidate his ideas or the discussions they may promote.
