Reflections on the Marc Presnsky and the "Digital Natives"
As I read Marc Presnsky's article on Digital Natives, Digital Immigrants and his letter to President Obama, I realized just how old I am :). Along with that, I also learned that we truly live in a technological age and it is more than I ever imagined. Marc says in his article how we as teachers need a new way to teach our generation because they are so technologically intelligent. As a result, I came to learn that we should find creative ways to incorporate technology into our curriculum. The articles written by Marc were really great and this seemed to be an equally great topic for discussion. It became a debate among the teachers who agreed that it's important to find new ways to teach our "digital natives". I thought this discussion was enlightening because there were so many different perspectives and points of view on the subject. No improvement was needed because it created a wide open discussion for us all.
