This document discusses the evolution of learning environments for digital native students. It summarizes annual surveys of undergraduate students regarding their use of technology both for coursework and personal use. The surveys found high rates of device ownership but lower rates of in-class use. By 2011, over 90% of students owned laptops but only 68% brought them to class. Similarly, while smartphone ownership increased to over 80%, only 19.6% used them in class. The document questions whether students are truly connected to their learning and if classes are connected to students. It outlines ongoing and future research projects regarding faculty adoption of technology, online testing, and learning environment evaluations.
